Clinical Measurement of Range of Motion Review of Goniometry Emphasizing Reliability and Validity

TL;DR: Clinicians should adopt standardized methods of testing and should interpret and report goniometric results as ROM measurements only, not as measurements of factors that may affect ROM, to improve the reliability and validity of goniometry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reliability of measurements of cervical spine range of motion--comparison of three methods.

TL;DR: It was found that goniometric measurements of AROM of the cervical spine made by the same physical therapist had ICCs greater than .80 when made with the CROM device or the UG.
Journal ArticleDOI

Responsiveness of the short form-36, disability of the arm, shoulder, and hand questionnaire, patient-rated wrist evaluation, and physical impairment measurements in evaluating recovery after a distal radius fracture

TL;DR: Questionnaires were highly responsive during the 0- to 3-month time period when physical testing could not be performed, and of the physical tests, grip strength was most responsive, followed by range of motion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glenohumeral joint total rotation range of motion in elite tennis players and baseball pitchers.

TL;DR: unique glenohumeral joint rotational patterning in unilaterally dominant upper extremity athletes that has ramifications for rehabilitation after injury and for both injury prevention and performance enhancement is identified.
