Polk finger goniometer, 6''

The Lafayette Extendable Goniometer is an angle measurement device used for accurate, versatile, reliable and objective assessment of range of motion. The Extendable Goniometer features a dual scale, 1° increments, extendable and retractable arms, magnified reading window, as well as a compact, lightweight, and portable design. Its arms can extend to 28.00 inches to measure large joints and retract to 8.0 inches to measure all but the smallest joints. Unlike standard goniometers that require the examiner to estimate alignment, the length of the extendable arms allows it to lie over anatomical bony landmarks. The dual scale of 0-180° and 180-0° is magnified four times, improving the accuracy of the reading, thus, reducing the chance for error. Its lightweight ABS plastic construction will ensure continued and long lasting use.

The Lafayette Grip or Pinch Dynamometers are hydraulic strength measuring instruments. They are designed for routine assessment of the grip and/or pinch strength of a patient or can also be used in the evaluation of hand trauma or disease. As the patient either grips or pinches the device, a column of hydraulic fluid activates a pressure gauge mounted on the top of the device. The gauge indicates the pinch or grip force in pounds (lbs) or kilogram force (kgf). A peak needle shows the maximum force applied during a single test. The peak needle is manually reset at the end of the test and peak values are recorded manually. The grip dynamometers also feature an adjustable handle that can accommodate five different grip positions. The Stainless Steel Short Finger Goniometer is used for easy range-of-motion measurements of metacarpal, phalangeal, and interphalangeal joints. There are linear inch and centimeter markings on both sides of the protractors, in opposite directions. The protractors measure 0-150° in 5° increments. Stainless steel. Latex free. Clearly marked numbers make measuring easy. Measures 5.75 inches long.
