In RROM
  1. The client moves the structure with their own effort
  2. The therapist moves the client’s structure without the client’s assistance
  3. The therapist is creating resistance to the client’s movement while the client moves the structure under their own effort
  4. None of the above describe AROM
Explanation
Answer: C The therapist sets up a resistance to the client’s movement in order to check for muscle strength. The client is asked to perform a specific movement using the muscle group in question and the therapist sets up a resistance against the client’s movement. This creates an isometric contraction where there is constant muscle contraction without movement. This test assesses for pain, strength or weakness of specific structures.
