Muscle strength-how to rest and grade - Answer>>> - Ask the client to flex the muscle being
assessed and then to resist when you apply opposing force against the muscle
- 0-5 scale
• 0 = no movement (no muscle contraction)
• 1 = some contraction seen, but no movement of joint
• 2 = can move with support of nurse to remove effects of gravity
• 3 = can move against gravity, but not against any resistance (less than or equal to grade 3 is
considered disabled
• 4 = can move against slight to moderate resistance
• 5 = can move against full resistance
Osteoporosis - Answer>>> - Bone disease that is characterized by increased bone resorption and
decreased calcium absorption.
, - Bone becomes weak and may break from a fall
