An Inclinometric method for continuous measurement of sagittal movement of the lumbar spine / E.O. Otun and J.A.D. Anderson

Sumario: A new inclinometric method for continuous measurement of sagittal movement of the spine in occupational or clinical studies has been developed. The method is based on miniature purpose-built inclinometers, 20mm in length, 15 mm in diameter and 17 g in weight. They are designed to be used both in the laboratory online to a microcomputer for inmediate data analysis and remotely in fields studies where their operation can be unsupervised. This paper describes the instrument and its application
