FMS Test Questions with Verified Correct
Answers
what is the purpose of the FMS
standard to expose movement dysfunction or pain with STABILITY and MOBILITY within
basic movement patterns
can the FMS diagnose?
NOO
can't isolate joint movements either
what does the FMS contain?
deep squat
hurdle site
inline lunge
shoulder mobility
active SLR
trunk stability push up
rotatory stability
what portion has two clearing components? what are they?
inline lunge
-pain and ankle mobility
mobility patterns are addressed first because
stability/motor control cannot be present with reduced mobility
a score of a zero is because
, PAIN at any portion of test
-refer to medical professional lol
if a person could get a 3 on the trunk stability push up, but have pain in the right
shoulder, the raw score would be? final score?
raw score=3
final score=0
-cuz form was good but pain overrules it!
the clearing tests influence what score?
influence the final score but NOT the raw score
what is the goal intern of score?
NOT a 21!
--The goal is to set a baseline and to work towards achieving at least 2's on each movement
screen.
what is regional interdependence
•Concept that seemingly unrelated impairments in a remote anatomical region may contribute
to, or be associated with, the patient's primary complaint
why is the deep squat used?
-total body mechanics and neuromuscular control
-bilateral, symmetrical, functional mobility of LE and UE
how to score a 3 on the deep squat?
torso is parallel with tibia/VERtiCAL
femur below horizontal
