Goniometry axis poin

        Help!  

Question
Answer
shoulder flexion   axis at center of humeral head. when flexed, axis pt moves upward & backward to posterior surface of shoulder  
🗑
shoulder extension   axis at center of humeral head start & finish. watch for excessive scapular motion  
🗑
shoulder aBduction   axis on acromion process on posterior surface of shoulder  
🗑
shoulder internal rotation, aBducted   axis on olecranon process, stationery & moveable arm parallel to forearm  
🗑
shoulder internal rotation, ADducted   axis on olecranon process, stationery & moveable arm parallel to forearm (under elbow)  
🗑
shoulder external rotation, aBducted   axis on olecranon process, stationery & moveable arm parallel to forearm  
🗑
shoulder external rotation, ADducted   axis on olecranon process, stationery & moveable arm parallel to forearm (under elbow)  
🗑
shoulder horizontal aBduction   axis over acromion process. stationary bar parallel over shoulder toward neck, movable bar parallel to humerus on superior aspect  
🗑
shoulder horizontal aDduction   axis over acromion process, stationary bar parallel over shoulder toward neck, movable bar parallel to humerus on superior aspect  
🗑
elbow extension   axis over lateral epicondyle of humerus at end of elbow crease, after movement, reposition goniometer so it is over, although it will not be directly on lateral epicondyle  
🗑
forearm supination   axis at ulnar border of volar aspect of wrist, just proximal to ulna styloid. after movement reposition so movable bar rests squarely across center of distal forearm  
🗑
forearm pronation   axis at ulnar border of dorsal aspect of wrist, just proximal to ulnar styloid. after movement reposition so movable bar rests squarely across center of dorsum of distal forearm  
🗑
wrist flexion   seat client with forearm in midposition and hand and forearm resting on table on ulnar border. Axis on lateral aspect of wrist just distal to radial styloid in snuffbox. S bar P to radius, M bar P to MCP of index finger  
🗑
wrist extension   same as wrist flexion except fingers should be flexed to allow for more ROM  
🗑
wrist ulnar deviation   palm resting on surface. axis on dorsum of wrist at base of 3rd MCP, over capitate bone. M bar parallel to 3rd MCP, S bar over midline of dorsal forearm  
🗑
wrist radial deviation   same as wrist ulnar deviation  
🗑
finger MCP flexion   axis centered on dorsal aspect of MCP joint. S bar on top of MCP, M bar on top of proximal phalanx  
🗑
finger MCP hyperextension   axis over lateral aspect of MP joint of index finger, S bar parallel to MCP, M bar parallel to proximal phalanx. Measure little finger MP joint same way. ROM of long & ring fingers estimate by comparison  
🗑
finger PIP flexion   axis centered on dorsal surface of proximal PIP joint being measured. S bar over proximal phalanx, M bar over middle phalanx  
🗑
finger DIP flexion   axis on dorsal surface of DIP joint. S bar over middle phalanx, M bar over distal phalanx  
🗑
thumb MCP flexion   axis on dorsal surface of MP joint. S bar over thumb MCP, M bar over proximal phalanx  
🗑
thumb IP flexion   axis on dorsal surface of thumb IP joint. S bar over proximal phalanx, M bar over distal phalanx  
🗑
thumb radial abduction   hand palm down on flat surface. axis over CMC joint at base of thumb MCP. S bar P to radius, M bar P to thumb MCP.  
🗑
thumb palmar abduction   hand resting on ulnar border, wrist in neutral. thumb rotated so at right angles to palm of hand. axis at junction of thumb and index finger MCP. S bar & M bar lined up together, parallel to thumb & index finger MCPs  
🗑
