What does PROM stand for?

  1. Passive Range of Motion

  2. Patient Range of Motion

  3. Patient Reaction of Motion

  4. Passive Reaction of Motion

The correct answer is: Passive Range of Motion

PROM stands for Passive Range of Motion, which represents the movement of a joint performed entirely by another person, without any active muscle contraction from the patient. Thus, options B and C, which include the term "patient" in their acronyms, are incorrect. Option D, which includes the term "Reaction," does not accurately describe the concept of passive joint movement, making it an incorrect option as well.
