Deluxe Inclinometer for Range of Motion Measurement. MFID: DI

The Deluxe Inclinometer utilizes a ball technology that reduces the inclinometer's sensitivity to vertical positioning. The Deluxe Inclinometer has a three inch dial that provides readings to one degree. The inclinometer is fluid dampened to permit fast, accurate readings without waiting for oscillations to damp out. A short base is provided for the spine and small surfaces like the hand.

A long base works well for placement on long flat surfaces such as the arm (when measuring elbow range of motion) or the leg (when measuring knee range of motion). The long arm is also easy to grasp for measurements such as wrist rotation and shoulder rotation.

When measuring the extremities, one inclinometer is sufficient. When measuring the spine, the preferred method is the two inclinometer method (dual inclinometry).

Using the Deluxe Inclinometer to measure the spine:
  • The examiner palpates two points on the spine. Example: for lumbar flexion, S1 and T12.
  • The patient is instructed to stand erect. The inclinometers are placed (centered) on the two palpation points and zeroed.
  • The patient is instructed to slowly bend forward to end range. The reading on each inclinometer is recorded.
  • The top inclinometer measures TOTAL flexion, the bottom inclinometer measures SACRAL flexion. Total flexion minus sacral flexion is TRUE flexion.
  • True flexion is the measurement usually needed.
Benefits of the Deluxe Inclinometer:
  • Ball indicator reduces sensitivity to vertical orientation
  • Three inch dial is readable to one degree
  • Retains all features of the Universal Inclinometer
  • Rubber footed base grips curved surfaces
  • Long arm base can be used for extremity measurements
  • Long arm base can be easily gripped for wrist rotation measurements
