Immobilization Effects

Immobilization can lead to muscle atrophy, joint stiffness, decreased range of motion, and weakened bones.

Signup and view all the flashcards

Hip Flexor Limitation Cause

Shortened hip flexor muscles can limit hip extension range of motion. This is because the hip flexors are muscles that help bring the thigh towards the abdomen. If these muscles are tight, they can pull the hip into a flexed position, making it difficult to extend the hip fully.

Goniometer Measurement

A goniometer is a tool used to measure angles, specifically joint angles. To use a goniometer for range of motion measurement, you would align the tool with the joint being measured, and then record the angle at the beginning and end of the movement.

Immobilization Adverse Effects

  • Immobilization decreases muscular strength and endurance.
  • Immobilization negatively impacts bone density
  • Immobilization results in decreased range of motion/joint mobility
  • Immobilization reduces cardiovascular fitness and increases the risk of cardiovascular complications.

Range of Motion (ROM)

  • ROM Technique (Page 8): Start by assessing the patient's range of motion and functional mobility.
  • Appropriate Method for Measurement: Measure patient's muscle strength.
