  • Title: Three-dimensional joint co-ordination strategies of the upper limb during functional activities.
    Author: Barker TM, Nicol AC, Kelly IG, Paul JP.
    Journal: Proc Inst Mech Eng H; 1996; 210(1):17-26. PubMed ID: 8663889.
    Abstract:
    A triaxial flexible electrogoniometer has been developed to measure the three-dimensional angular motion of the shoulder joint during simulated activities of daily living. The motion of the elbow, forearm and wrist were also recorded and angle-angle diagrams were mathematically analysed to provide quantitative parameters regarding the control and co-ordination of the joints of the normal and the arthritic upper limb. Two parameters (slope and movement area quotient) were derived and used in the interpretation of joint motion during different activities.
