“…Currently, electrogoniometers, either potentiometer-based or flexible ones, have been applied to measure the range of motion (ROM) for wrist and forearm (HANSSON et al, 1996;JONSSON and JOHNSON, 2001;JOHNSON et al, 2002;MCGORRY et al, 2004), knee (KUIKEN et al, 2004), back (SHIRATSU and COURY, 2003), cervical spine and neck (HAYNES and EDMONDSTON, 2002) and pelvic (SPRIGLE et al, 2003) position, and shoulder strength (BLOMQVlST et al, 2004). GOODWlN and SUNDERLAND (2003) compared the reliability and interchangeability of three types of goniometer, including a universal goniometer, fluid goniometer and electrogoniometer, from joint measurements on the upper limb.…”

Research has focused on improvement of the quality of life of stroke patients. Gait detection, kinematics and kinetics analysis, home-based rehabilitation and telerehabilitation are the areas where there has been increasing research interest. The paper reviews position-sensing technologies and their application for human movement tracking and stroke rehabilitation. The review suggests that it is feasible to build a home-based telerehabilitation system for sensing and tracking the motion of stroke patients.

“…Moreover, many techniques for 3D-kinematic research have shown adequate to good reproducibility: electro-goniometers and electroinclinometers (McClure et al, 1998;Tousignant et al, 2001;Haynes and Edmondston, 2002;Edmondston et al, 2005) skin-surface devices (Mannion et al, 2004), the Cervical Range of Motion device (CROM) (Capuano-Pucci et al, 1991;Youdas et al, 1992;Dhimitri et al, 1998;Hickey et al, 2000), electromagnetic tracking (Trott et al, 1996;Jordan et al, 2000;Amiri et al, 2003a,b;Carpaneto et al, 2004;Jordan et al, 2004), ultrasound-based systems (Vogt and Banter, 1997;Natalis and Konig, 1999;Mannion et al, 2000;Schreiber et al, 2001;Wang et al, 2005), video-based devices (Robinson et al, 1993;Antonaci et al, 2002) and low dose fluoroscopy or systems combining enhanced digital fluoroscopy videography (DFV) with distortion compensated roentgen analysis (DCRA) (Breen et al, 2006;Teyhen et al, 2005).…”

“…16 Other authors analyzed the correlation coefficients for intratester and intertester (0.92 and 0.99) 17 , and the reliability of this instrument (0.89 to 0.98). 18 Before using the CROM device, we performed an intertester reliability analysis with our 2 examiners and 10 patients not participating in this study, which showed a Pearson correlation of 0.98. The CROM device combines a system of inclinometers and magnets set on a head mainframe with a nose-piece (positions like eyeglasses); and it measures angles of flexion, extension, lateral flexion, and rotation.…”

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of manipulative and manual therapy treatments with regard to pain perception and neck mobility in patients with tensiontype headache. Methods: A randomized clinical trial was conducted on 84 adults diagnosed with tension-type headache. Eighty-four subjects were enrolled in this study: 68 women and 16 men. Mean age was 39.76 years, ranging from 18 to 65 years. A total of 57.1% were diagnosed with chronic tension-type headache and 42.9% with tension-type headache. Participants were divided into 3 treatment groups (manual therapy, manipulative therapy, a combination of manual and manipulative therapy) and a control group. Four treatment sessions were administered during 4 weeks, with posttreatment assessment and follow-up at 1 month. Cervical ranges of motion pain perception, and frequency and intensity of headaches were assessed. Results: All 3 treatment groups showed significant improvements in the different dimensions of pain perception. Manual therapy and manipulative treatment improved some cervical ranges of motion. Headache frequency was reduced with manipulative treatment (P b .008). Combined treatment reported improvement after the treatment (P b .000) and at follow-up (P b .002). Pain intensity improved after the treatment and at follow-up with manipulative therapy (P b .01) and combined treatment (P b .01). Conclusions: Both treatments, administered both separately and combined together, showed efficacy for patients with tension-type headache with regard to pain perception. As for cervical ranges of motion, treatments produced greater effect when separately administered.
