a.The patient moves the joint without any help
b.The joint is moved rapidly past the point of resistance
c.The technician moves the joint for the patient through its normal range
d.Weights are added to increase resistance

Passive ROM is performed by the technician moving the patient's joint through its normal range because the patient cannot do so independently. The movements are slow, gentle, and stopped at the point of pain or resistance. Passive ROM helps prevent contractures and maintains joint mobility.
