A large standard goniometer (Jamar, Clifton, NJ, USA) was used to measure passive knee extension ROM. Knee extension ROM was measured with the patients in supine position with the heel elevated on a ...

Athletes' physiological characteristics are fundamental both in terms of performance and injuries prevention. One of those is flexibility. Using an easy and cheap method, goniometry, estimating active ...

The measurement of joint range of motion (ROM) is a cornerstone of clinical assessment, rehabilitation and biomechanical research. Reliable and accurate quantification of joint movement is essential ...

The purpose of the current study was to characterize the gait profile of patients with knee OA compared to matched controls using a new measuring system that can be applied in clinic settings rather ...

Scientists measured gait function, knee extension velocity while seated, quadriceps strength, knee range of motion, and knee pain in 186 total knee arthroplasty patients to identify the most important ...

Joint contractures are a common complication of spinal cord injury (SCI), 1, 2, 3 and are characterized by limitations in the passive range of motion (ROM) of affected joints. 4, 5 Contractures limit ...

A total knee replacement, also known as knee arthroplasty, can feel like a second chance at life after years of dealing with a sore, arthritic knee. While most people achieve improved range of motion ...
