ClinicCompanion. Compared to the Use of a Goniometer

October 1, 2024 updated by: Wake Forest University Health Sciences

A Study of Effectiveness of clinicCompanion. Compared to the Use of a Goniometer for Range of Motion Measurement.

In this study, the goal is to find out if the clinicCompanion™ is effective in measuring range of motion when compared to the goniometer. Currently, the goniometer is an approved device to measure range of motion by the FDA, but the clinicCompanion™ is not.

Detailed Description

The study procedure will test the range of motion of the subjects shoulders two different ways: using a goniometer and using the clinicCompanion™. Both tools are designed to measure the degree of movement subjects are able to do. Researchers will take 12 measurements on each arm for each device, for a total of 24 measurements per device. That is a total of 48 measurements for both devices.
