The imposed stress may also be associated with the ratio between the MER and the
passive range of motion (ROM) of ER in the throwing shoulder.
Botulinum toxin type A injections are also being increasingly used in our practice (JAIG) at this stage preceding microneurosurgical intervention to prevent contracture and maintain full
passive range of motion by balancing the shoulder.
The
passive range of motion of the right hip joint was slightly improved in flexion, adduction, and internal rotation (100[degrees], 20[degrees], and 20[degrees], resp.).
However, Bennell and associates found that the non-dancers had greater active hip external rotation than the dancers, but
passive range of motion was not measured.
(12) Aggressive postoperative rehabilitation typically includes immediate weightbearing as tolerated with a brace, active and
passive range of motion to restore range of motion, and closed-chain exercises, which are favored over open-chain exercises since they protect the graft through use of the contours of the knee.
All patients participated in a supervised rehabilitation program that consisted of immediate active elbow flexion and extension exercises and active shoulder range of motion exercises and
passive range of motion to the surgically-determined limits of abduction and external rotation.
(15.) Roberts J, Wilson K: Effect of stretching duration on the active and
passive range of motion in the lower extremity.
After 3 days of immobilization in a sling,
passive range of motion exercise of the shoulder was started.
Symptoms may be reproduced during clinical examination with
passive range of motion tests that combine flexion and rotation.
Palpable crepitus with active or
passive range of motion about the glenohumeral joint may indicate a torn labrum, acromioclavicular, or subacromial pathology.
In the presence of such conditions MO may occur even;
passive range of motion exercises is carried out.
The second week after surgery, he was allowed to start a
passive range of motion; on the third month, he started with resisted motion exercises.
