The Reliability and Concurrent Validity of Digital Inclinometer, Smartphone Applications, and the Cervical Range of Motion Device for Measuring the Cervical Range of Motion
Objectives: Changes in the Range of Motion (ROM) are essential criteria in determining the severity of spinal disorders and could be effective in predicting pain progression. Instruments to measure the ROM are costly and unavailable in most therapy settings. While there is a tendency in therapists to use their smartphones instead, there is no report to measure the suitability of smartphones to ...

متن کاملWithin-day reliability of shoulder range of motion measurement with a smartphone.
Measuring range of motion (ROM) is the first step of a physical examination and functional evaluation of the shoulder joint. Digital inclinometers are available on the market; however, they are expensive, and hence will not come into wide use. In this study, we present a new method for the shoulder ROM measurement using the inclinometer application on a smartphone. We hypothesized that the meth...
