What are the correct units for ROM? What is the name of the tool we use to measure range of motion (ROM) at the joints? This type of angle is measured between a body segment and a fixed line of reference ____ Dynamic stretching is an example of this type of ROM ____

Solution

1. The correct unit to measure ROM is degree. it is used to determine the Range Of Motion in human body joint.

2. Goniometer, Inclinometer are the tool used to determine ROM. Goniometer show degree of an angle from zero to 180 or 360 degree.

3. the angle is measured by ; the Goniometer axis is placed at the joint, the stationary arm along the longitudinal aspect of the stabilized segments and the movable arm is placed in alignment with the moving segment.

4. dynamic streaching is a active range of motion.
