Partial ROM in NWB

Always start to test

Resistance in strong grades is ______ to line of gravity

Determine which people do not have a particular condition, dysfunction or disease

Hold with mild resistance

Partial ROM WB; full ROM NWB

GH

In stabilization, _____ of motion is the key

Translatory motion

Active resistance test is also known as

True negative

Gravity minimized position

MMT 2

Forearm

Determine both a particular joint and the total amount of motion available at a joint

Wrist

Weak grades are tested in plane _____ to direction of gravity

True positive

Breaks with minimal resistance

Resistance is applied at distal end of tested limb to which muscle attaches except:

Due to pathologic conditions involving the jt capsule can cause this pattern of restriction

Part of a comprehensive examination of joints and surrounding soft tissue

Breaks when maximal resistance is given

Cannot break position

No muscle contraction or visual contraction

Elbow complex

Soft
