Abstract

A goniometer that measures simultaneously the angles of the metacarpophalangeal, proximal interphalangeal, and distal interphalangeal joints is presented. This allows faster measurement of these angles, encouraging and simplifying accurate records of patient hand movements. The individual angles can be recorded or traced on a chart, providing a visual record.
