Dr. Rippstein Plurimeter is a liquid damped inclinometer. Measuring spine posture and spine motion.
Device measures angle against centroidal axis G. Main advantage against traditional Goniometers: one hand is off.
Photo 1: Measurement of cervical spine rotation on the right using an Inclinometer
Dial is adjustable in scale position 0° (0°,90°,180°). So you can take a differential measurement between 2 angles, i.e spine curvature measurement.
Photo 2: Measurement of lumbar spine flexion using 2 Inclinometers (optional differential measurement)
Many studies attest that this device shows comparable measuring results as X rays.
Well suitable for measuring large joints, i.e shoulder-, elbow-, knee- and hip joints.
Photo 3: Measurement of shoulder flexion using an Inclinometer.
