Question

lo 4.6. how do you use a goniometer?
estimate the joint angle by eye - balling it instead of using a goniometer.
flex the joint to 90 degrees and read the angle from the goniometer.
place the goniometer on the opposite side of the joint
identify the joint, position the goniometer on it, move the joint through its full range of motion, and read the angle from the goniometer.
place the goniometer on the joint and read the angle without moving the joint.

Explanation:

A goniometer is used to measure joint - range of motion. First, identify the joint. Then position the goniometer correctly on the joint. Move the joint through its full range of motion and read the angle from the goniometer.

Answer:

Identify the joint, position the goniometer on it, move the joint through its full range of motion, and read the angle from the goniometer.
