Hi Rasika! Completely understand your question. As we mention at the start of this videos, the aim of the Full Assessment Run Through is mainly to demonstrate the order of testing. However, please feel free to look at our other videos on the Cervical Spine such as Cervical Spine Observation, Cervical Spine Active Range of Movement, Cervical Spine Palpation and many others where we go into lots more detail about the tests and positive signs that you can look for 😊
Hi Ruth! When we were in supine we were doing PROM rather than AROM in this particular video. However, interesting point! I sometimes do test AROM in both, mainly if I have a feeling that AROM is going be easier in supine (because Neck not having to hold up head). This can be a quick test because if AROM is easier in supine I may give patient AROM in supine as Home Exercise. Hope that makes sense 😊
A good reasoning for doing both AROM and PROM is to isolate a joint issue vs a muscle issue. If the patient has no pain when you perform the PROM for them, it is likely muscular. However, if there is pain on both AROM and PROM, it is likely joint-based (or possibly nerve involvement...); the reason is that AROM uses active contraction of the patient's muscles, whereas AROM and PROM are both going through the movements of the joint, but removing the muscle contraction.. Also, supine takes gravity out of the equation. Hope this helps! (I am a Registered Massage Therapist in British Columbia).
@@whatwouldhousedo5136 This is not true. You can’t differentiate structures like that. It’s very old school thinking. Pain is much more complex than that.
😂😂😂 But hopefully you would have listened to what we said in the intro and outro?!?! This video is to show JUST the order, and that we have MANY MORE videos that show you and talk you through all the individual details in depth so you can learn much more … please see our playlists they are all there
Excellent assessment
thank you sirrr. your videos greatly
help me
You’re very welcome!!
Hi It would have been nice to know, while you were testing each component what positive signs you were looking for.

Rasika Rane Hi there. How long have you been a physio?

🙏🏼

Thank you! 🙏🏼
How to call this professionals is it ortopodic?
As a specialist for the neck,how will u then treat it as an orthopidist
It completely depends on the symptoms my friend, but often strengthening and movement exercises are a common theme for me
@@ClinicalPhysio do u make adjustments like chiropractor aswell?
@@TawagNgKampyeon personally no to be honest!

Hello! Why did you do AROM twice? I’m sitting and in supine?

@@ClinicalPhysio yes that makes sense. Thanks a lot :)
@@Ruthbernard98 no problem 😊

Why did you check same movts in sitting and then lying? What were you trying to understand?
Hi! Passive range of movement is much easier to assess lying down whereas active range of movement is much easier to assess when sitting
would have been better if not only observing but explaining as well looking for forward head posture etc. even a child can do what he does
