Relationship between muscle-tendon length, range of motion, and resistance to passive movement in children with normal and increased tone

[Purpose] The aim of this study was to quantify the resistance to passive movement by measuring changes in muscle-tendon length and joint range of motion (ROM), before and after applying a standardized 5-kilogram tension force, and to correlate and compare these changes to muscle tone. [Subjects and...
