“…According to the results shown here and observing only the repetitiveness of the three measurements in the groups without considering the effect from the intervention, there was an average change of 4.3° (0.5-4.8°) for goniometry and 2.5° (0.2-2.7°) for photogrammetry. These findings prove that both methods were clinically consistent and reproducible by the same examiner, although the data from photogrammetry showed greater reliability and repeatability when compared to goniometry, corroborating the study of Farber, Deorio, Steel 25 . According to Sacco et al…”

-The objective of the present study was to evaluate the reliability of intra-rater and inter-instrument measures during two flexibility programs. Fifty-three active and healthy males, aged between 18 and 28 years old, were randomly included in three groups: control (Cg, n = 18), static stretching (SSg, n = 17), and dynamic stretching (DSg, n = 18). All participants underwent measurements of their active range of knee extension using manual goniometry and computerized photogrammetry, measured in four separated assessments and analyzed using the SPSS, with a£5%. Both methodologies presented very strong intra-rater reliability(ICC: 0.91³0.99; P<0.001) at all four assessments in all the groups, and the instruments showed weak (r: 0.31-0.6) to strong(r: 0.61-0.9) correlation, in the Cg (P<0.05) and strong (r: 0.61-0.9) in the SSg and DSg (P<0.01),although without differences between groups, indicating that the measures are equally reliable, regardless of interventions.

“…Sendo assim, tanto o CV quanto CCP mostraram que há um alto grau de confiabilidade das medidas dos dois equipamentos e entre eles. Tais resultados não corroboram com os encontrados por Farber et al 21 os quais verificaram que as medidas do ângulo articular realizadas com um equipamento computadorizado demonstraram ser mais confiáveis que as obtidas com o goniômetro.…”

RESUMOContextualização: O instrumento mais utilizado pelos terapeutas para mensuração da amplitude de movimento (ADM) articular é o goniômetro universal. No entanto, há carência de estudos que analisem a confiabilidade das medidas da ADM do joelho realizadas no dinamômetro isocinético. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a correlação entre as medidas de ADM na articulação do joelho, realizadas com o goniômetro universal e no dinamômetro isocinético. Método: Foram avaliados 38 voluntários saudáveis (27 mulheres, 11 homens), com idade de 36 ± 11 anos, com limitação mínima de 20° na ADM de extensão do joelho. No membro dominante de cada sujeito foram realizadas três mensurações da ADM do joelho com o goniômetro e três mensurações no dinamômetro. Resultados: Os resultados deste estudo mostraram que há alto grau de correlação entre as medidas da ADM do joelho obtidas com o goniômetro universal e no dinamômetro isocinético (Coeficiente de Correlação de Pearson = 0,90). Conclusão: Com os procedimentos realizados, tanto o goniômetro universal como o dinamômetro isocinético podem ser utilizados para avaliação da ADM do joelho, pois ambos apresentam mensurações confiáveis.Palavras-chave: goniômetro, dinamômetro isocinético, joelho, amplitude de movimento. ABSTRACT Knee Joint Range-of-Motion Evaluation: Correlation Between Measurements Achieved Using a Universal Goniometer and an Isokinetic DynamometerBackground: The instrument most often used by therapists for measuring joint range of motion (ROM) is the universal goniometer. However, there is a lack of studies analyzing the reliability of knee joint ROM measured by the isokinetic dynamometer. Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between the knee joint ROM measurements made using a universal goniometer and an isokinetic dynamometer. Method: 38 healthy volunteers (27 women, 11 men) aged 36 ± 11 years were evaluated. All of them had a minimum knee extension ROM limitation of 20°. Three knee ROM measurements were made using the universal goniometer and another three using the isokinetic dynamometer, on each subject's dominant limb. Results: The results showed a high degree of correlation between the knee ROM measurements made using the two instruments (Pearson correlation coefficient = 0.90). Conclusion: From the procedures performed, both the universal goniometer and the isokinetic dynamometer can be used to evaluate knee ROM, since they both present reliable measurements.
