A client grimaces while preforming range of motion of the left knee during an annual health assessment. Which movements should the nurse utilize to assess the client's ability to normally perform range of motion on the right knee?

A. Adduction, abduction, and rotation. These movements are more relevant to the hip joint. While rotation can apply to the knee, adduction and abduction do not. These are not the primary movements for assessing knee range of motion.B. Extension, flexion, and hyperextension. These are the primary movements used to assess the range of motion in the knee joint. Extension and flexion measure the ability of the knee to straighten and bend, respectively. Hyperextension assesses the extent to which the knee can move beyond its normal straight position.C. Internal and external rotation. While the knee does have some rotational capacity, these movements are limited and not typically used as primary measures of knee range of motion. They are more applicable to hip joint assessments.D. Pronation and supination. These terms refer to movements of the forearm and wrist, not the knee. They describe the rotational movement of the forearm where the palm turns up (supination) or down (pronation).
