AB OBJECTIVESOn  completion  of  Part  III,  you  will  be  able  to:Identify:appropriate  planes  and  axes  for  each  lower-extremity  joint  motionnormal  ranges  of  motion  for  each  lower-extremity  jointstructures  that  limit  the  end  of  the  range  of  motion  (ROM)expected  normal  end-feelsDescribe:testing  positions  used  for  each  lower-extremity  joint  motion  and  muscle  length  testgoniometer  alignment  for  each  motion  and  muscle  length  testcapsular  pattern  of  restricted  motionrange  of  motion  necessary  for  selected  functional  activities  at  each  major  lower-extremity  jointExplain:how  age,  gender,  and  other  variables  may  affect  the  ROMhow  sources  of  error  in  measurement  may  affect  testing  resultsPerform  a  goniometric  measurement  of  joint  ROM  and  muscle  length  testing  for  the  hip,  knee,  ankle,  and  foot  that  includes:a  clear  explanation  of  the  testing  procedureproper  positioning  of  the  individual  in  testing  positionadequate  stabilizationuse  of  appropriate  testing  motioncorrect  determination  of  the  end  of  the  motioncorrect  identification  of  the  end-feelpalpation  of  the  appropriate  bony  landmarksaccurate  alignment  of  the  goniometer  and  correct  reading  and  recording  of  goniometric  measurementsPlan  goniometric  measurements  of  the  hip,  knee,  ankle,  and  foot  that  are  organized  by  body  position.Assess  the  intratester  and  intertester  reliability  of  the  reader's  goniometric  measurements  of  the  lower-extremity  joints  using  the  statistical  methods  described  in  Chapter  3.
