Which of the following correctly explains the difference between active and passive ROM?

• Active range of motion means the athlete moves the joint through its ROM. Passive range of motion involves the medical professional moving a joint for the athlete.

• Passive range of motion means the athlete moves the joint through its ROM. Active range of motion involves the medical professional moving a joint for the athlete.

• Active and passive can be used interchangeably.

• None of these are correct.

When testing a shoulder movement should you test passively, actively or both?

• passively only

• actively only

• both

• neither

Which of the following best describes how to test shoulder internal rotation ROM?

• Position: seated upright

  Step 1: Ask the athlete to place one hand behind their back.

  Step 2: Have the athlete raise their hand as high as possible (keeping it behind the back). Repeat 1 & 2 on the other side.

  Step 3: Note any difference in ROM (levels and quality) between the involved and uninvolved side. 

  Step 4: Note any pain the athlete may feel.

• Position: seated upright

  Step 1: Have the athlete place one hand behind the head.

  Step 2: Instruct them to reach for the opposite shoulder blade. (repeat 1 & 2 with the other hand).

  Step 3: Note any difference in ROM (levels and quality) between the involved and uninvolved side. 

  Step 4: Note any pain the athlete may feel.

• To test the ROM in shoulder internal rotation ask the athlete to perform these movements through a pain free ROM. 

  Compare the uninvolved side to the involved side noting any differences and/or pain. 

  These tests can be performed actively and passively.
