CONTEXT: A single clinical assessment device that objectively measures scapular motion in each anatomical plane is not currently available. The development of a novel electric goniometer affords the ability to quantify scapular motion in all three anatomical planes.
OBJECTIVE: Investigate the reliability and validity of an electric goniometer to measure scapular motion in each anatomical plane during arm elevation.
DESIGN: Cross-sectional.
SETTING: Laboratory setting.
PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS: Sixty participants (29 females, 31 males) were recruited from the general population.
INTERVENTION(S): An electric goniometer was used to record clinical measurements of scapular position at rest and total arc of motion …
