Brief Summary

The validity and reliability of active internal rotation ROM measurement of shoulder with smartphone in patients with shoulder pain was investigated.

Conditions

Shoulder Pain

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• iHandy application

  The IHandy® app is a free app with a visual display similar to that of the digital inclinometer. In the measurement made with the application, the phone was held parallel to the ulna and the value displayed on the screen was recorded as range of motion value.

Study Arms (2)

iHandy application

EXPERIMENTAL

The IHandy® app is a free app with a visual display similar to that of the digital inclinometer in terms of digital size. In this study, due to its prevalence in the literature and its use in clinics, manual goniometer (gold standard) was chosen to be compared with this iPhone application.

Diagnostic Test: iHandy application; Diagnostic Test: Standard Goniometer

Standard goniometer

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

While measuring with goniometer, the pivot point of the goniometer was placed on the olecranon, the immobile rod of the goniometer was kept parallel to the bed, while the moving rod was kept parallel to the ulna, the angle was recorded at the end point of the movement.

Diagnostic Test: iHandy application; Diagnostic Test: Standard Goniometer
