What is the best option to assess the relative discomfort that a client is experiencing?
A . subjective pain scale
B. objective pain scale
C. passive range of motion testing
D. active range of motion testing
Answer: A
Explanation:
A subjective pain scale is a useful assessment protocol to determine the relative discomfort that a client is currently experiencing. Often a scale between 1-5 or 1-10 is used with 1 being the lowest amount of discomfort and either 5 or 10 being an unbearable and extreme pain. Most often, a therapist wants to remain under 4 or 8 respectively for an effective yet comfortable treatment.
