Baseline® Absolute+Axis® Goniometer

Features

• The Absolute+Axis® (AA) goniometer establishes a "true" vertical or horizontal to the start point of a measurement
• Many goniometric measurements require one arm of the goniometer to be positioned either horizontally or vertically
• The other arm is then lined-up with the patient's body part
• Until now, the practitioner had to "assume" or "eyeball" the vertical or horizontal position
• This interpolation is often incorrect and introduces measurement error
• The Absolute+Axis® goniometer removes measurement variability and allows the practitioner to concentrate on correct placement of the other goniometer arm and the patient's body position
• Some measurements the AA goniometer is designed to improve are shoulder and hip rotation (internal, external); cervical flexion, extension, rotation and side bending; hamstring flexibility; and active ROM
