    The definition of RANGE OF MOTION (ROM) is:

    • The amount of strength that occurs at a joint.

    • Amount of movement that occurs at a joint.

    • The flexibility of the muscles around a joint.

    • The ability to lift heavy weights.

    Correct Answer
    A. Amount of movement that occurs at a joint.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Amount of movement that occurs at a joint." This definition refers to the range of motion (ROM) which measures the extent to which a joint can move in various directions. It is not related to the amount of strength, flexibility of muscles, or the ability to lift heavy weights.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    A/An __________ is standard tool of joint measurement.

    • X-ray

    • Goniometer

    • Compass

    • Arthrometer

    Correct Answer
    A. Goniometer
    Explanation
    A goniometer is a standard tool used for joint measurement. It is a device that measures the range of motion of a joint in degrees. It consists of two arms, one fixed and one movable, with a scale that measures the angle between them. By placing the arms on either side of a joint and moving the joint through its range of motion, the goniometer can provide an accurate measurement of the joint's flexibility and movement. This makes it an essential tool in fields such as physical therapy, orthopedics, and sports medicine.

    The __________ factors that influence ROM include: Temperature, noise level, number of people in the room, time of day.

    • Environmental

    • Skeletal

    • Psychological and Psychosocial

    • Subject

    Correct Answer
    A. Environmental
    Explanation
    Environmental factors such as temperature, noise level, number of people in the room, and time of day can influence ROM (Range of Motion). These factors can affect a person's comfort, concentration, and overall well-being, which in turn can impact their ability to move and perform tasks. For example, a hot and noisy environment may cause discomfort and distraction, making it difficult for someone to fully engage in physical activities. Similarly, a crowded room may limit the space available for movement. Therefore, environmental factors play a significant role in determining an individual's ROM.

    A ________End Feel is described by the following: Soft end feel occurs during ROM, found in joints normally firm or hard; feels BOGGY (e.g.: synovitis, edema), Firm end feel found in joints normally soft or hard (e.g.: increased tone, capsular, muscular, or ligamentous shortening), Hard end feel found in joints normally soft or firm/ bony grating or blocked feel (e.g.: osteoarthritis, Chondromalacia, loose bodies in joint, fractures, Myositis Ossificans), Empty end feel ROM never reached due to pain; no resistance (e.g.: acute joint inflammation, Bursitis, far fractures abscesses, Psychogenic).

    • Physiologic (NORMAL)

    • Pathological

    Correct Answer
    A. Pathological
    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "Pathological." This is because the description provided for the end feel includes examples of conditions that are abnormal or pathological in nature, such as synovitis, edema, increased tone, capsular or ligamentous shortening, osteoarthritis, chondromalacia, fractures, myositis ossificans, acute joint inflammation, bursitis, abscesses, and psychogenic pain. This indicates that the end feel being described is not within the normal range and is indicative of a pathological condition.

    Used to describe which system when recording ROM results: "Neutral zero or starting position is with the body in anatomical position with the zero position toward the feet, the body is in the plane in which motion occurs; system most widely adopted (AMA, ASHT, etc.)"

    • 180-degree system

    • 360-degree system

    Correct Answer
    A. 180-degree system
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 180-degree system. This system is used to describe the recording of Range of Motion (ROM) results. In the 180-degree system, the neutral zero or starting position is with the body in anatomical position, with the zero position toward the feet. The body is in the plane in which motion occurs. This system is widely adopted by organizations such as the American Medical Association (AMA) and the American Society of Hand Therapists (ASHT). It is a commonly used system for measuring and documenting the range of motion in various joints and body parts.

    The Fulcrum is:

    • The rivet of the goniometer

    • Used to describe the amount of pressure used to position a client's U.E in order to measure AAROM

    • A reference point used in goniometric measurements

    • A term used in physics to describe a balance point

    Correct Answer
    A. A reference point used in goniometric measurements
    Explanation
    The Fulcrum is a reference point used in goniometric measurements. In goniometry, the fulcrum is the fixed point around which the measurement is taken. It serves as a reference point for determining the range of motion of a joint. By placing the fulcrum correctly, the therapist can accurately measure the angle of movement and assess the client's joint mobility. This reference point is essential for obtaining reliable and consistent measurements in goniometry.

    True or false: PROM is generally GREATER than AROM.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    PROM stands for passive range of motion, which refers to the movement of a joint that is performed by an external force without any voluntary muscle contraction. AROM, on the other hand, stands for active range of motion, which refers to the movement of a joint that is performed by the individual's own muscle contraction. Generally, PROM is greater than AROM because it allows for a greater range of motion since it is not limited by muscle strength or voluntary control.

    Two systems used when recording ROM results are:

    • Metric and English (Most common)

    • 180 degree (most common)and 360 degree

    • Acute (more common) and obtuse

    • O.S and D.O.S

    Correct Answer
    A. Metric and English (Most common)
    Explanation
    The answer is Metric and English (Most common) because these are the two systems commonly used when recording ROM (Range of Motion) results. The Metric system is used in many countries around the world, while the English system is predominantly used in the United States. Both systems provide different units of measurement, such as centimeters and inches, to record the range of motion in a joint or body part.

    1. Match the definitions with the meanings:
    1. PROM: _
    2. AROM: _
    3. AAROM: _
    4. FROM: _ A.) Arc of motion through which a joint passes when moved by an outside force B) Amount of motion necessary to perform essential activities of daily living without adaptation or equipment C) Arc of motion through which a joint passes when moved INITIALLY by muscles then COMPLETED by an outside force D) Arc of motion through which a joint passes when moved by muscles acting on the joint

    • D, B, A, C

    • C, B, A, D

    • D, C, A, B

    • A, C, D, B

    Correct Answer
    A. D, C, A, B
    Explanation
    The correct answer is D, C, A, B. This is because the definition of PROM (Passive Range of Motion) states that it is the arc of motion through which a joint passes when moved by muscles acting on the joint, which corresponds to option D. The definition of AROM (Active Range of Motion) states that it is the arc of motion through which a joint passes when moved initially by muscles then completed by an outside force, which corresponds to option C. The definition of AAROM (Active Assistive Range of Motion) is not provided in the question, so we cannot determine its correct meaning. The definition of FROM (Functional Range of Motion) states that it is the amount of motion necessary to perform essential activities of daily living without adaptation or equipment, which corresponds to option B. Therefore, the correct order is D, C, A, B.

    GONIOMETRIC PLACEMENT: Which is correct?

    • Moveable arm: is placed on a specific bony landmark; may move throughout the range of movement

    • Fulcrum: lies parallel to the longitudinal axis (fulcrum) of the FIXED distal joint or will point toward a distal bony prominence

    • Stationary arm: lies parallel to the longitudinal axis of the MOVING distal joint segment and/or points toward the proximal bony prominence

    Correct Answer
    A. Fulcrum: lies parallel to the longitudinal axis (fulcrum) of the FIXED distal joint or will point toward a distal bony prominence
    Explanation
    The fulcrum in goniometric placement should either lie parallel to the longitudinal axis of the fixed distal joint or point towards a distal bony prominence. This means that the fulcrum should be aligned with the axis of rotation of the joint or point towards a prominent bone at the distal end of the joint. This allows for accurate measurement of the joint's range of motion.

    -13/135 elbow flexion would be stated as:

    • Hyperextension measurements

    • 13 additional degrees of extension available past the zero starting point and that there was 135 degrees of flexion

    • As lacking 13 degrees of extension but having 135 degrees of flexion

    Correct Answer
    A. As lacking 13 degrees of extension but having 135 degrees of flexion
    Explanation
    The answer suggests that the measurement of -13/135 elbow flexion indicates a lack of 13 degrees of extension but a presence of 135 degrees of flexion. This means that the elbow joint falls short of extending fully by 13 degrees, but it can flex up to 135 degrees.
