Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Active assistive range of motion occurs when the caregiver minimally assists the patient, or the patient minimally assists himself/herself in the movement of joints through a full motion. Active range of motion occurs when the patient has full independent movement of all joints; this is also known as isotonic exercise. Passive range of motion occurs when the caregiver moves the patient's joints through a full motion. This exercise does not maintain or improve strength but maintains flexibility and prevents contractures and atrophy.
