Range of Motion PSIK UMY

Summary

This video demonstrates a passive range of motion (ROM) exercise for a stroke patient, aiming to improve joint flexibility, muscle strength, and cardiovascular health. The session, guided by a therapist, involves various movements of the patient's head, arms, legs, and joints to assess and improve their mobility. The therapist ensures the patient’s comfort throughout the process, addressing any discomfort. After completing the exercises, the therapist plans to return for a follow-up to test muscle strength. The session concludes with a prayer, emphasizing the patient’s progress and ongoing care.

Q & A

What is the purpose of the 'rank of motion' (ROM) exercise described in the script?

The purpose of the ROM exercise is to improve joint movement, muscle strength, and cardiovascular health by training the range of motion, which can be done either passively or actively depending on the patient's condition.

What medical condition does the patient in the script have?

The patient has experienced a stroke, which occurred six days prior to the session in the script.

How does the therapist confirm the patient's identity?
