Active exercise is an exercise in which the client exerts force to complete an action, e.g. standing up from bed. the nurse is typically a supervisor and provides little to no assistance to the patient unless a problem arises, i.e. fall.
Passive exercise is an exercise in which the nurse exerts force on the patient to complete an action, e.g. assisted range of motion (ROM) exercises. the nurse is physically moving a client's body to prevent thrombosis, atrophy, etc. this is typical in -paresis or -plegia clients.
