A Goniometry Paradigm Shift to Measure Burn Scar Contracture in Burn Patients

Abstract

To test more extensively a recently designed Revised Goniometry (RG) method and compare it to Standard Goniometry (SG) used to measure burn scar contracted joint angles for determining disability severity and function in a burn population.Hypothesis: Significant statistical differences in patient joint angle measurements will be found between SG techniques compared to RG techniques which incorporate CKM and CFU principles.
