A New Technique for The Assessment of Wrist Movement using a Biaxial Flexible Electrogoniometer

Abstract

A new electrogoniometer technique is described for the measurement of wrist movements, including circumduction, with the results being displayed as figures. Clinical validation has been performed and the system found to be highly accurate and reliable. Applications of the technique are illustrated. It is suggested this technique should in the future be used to assess wrist movement in clinical and research applications.
