This requires clinical measurement tools that are readily available and easy to apply and which provide a reliable evaluation of scapula motion. <\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Aim:<\/jats:bold> To determine the reliability of the Plurimeter-V gravity inclinometer for the measurement of scapular upward rotation positions during humeral elevation in coronal abduction in a group of patients with shoulder pathology.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Method:<\/jats:bold> Twenty six patients were assessed in two repeat tests within a single testing session. Patients exhibiting a wide spectrum of shoulder pathology were selected. The angle of scapular upward rotation was measured during total shoulder abduction. The measurement protocol was performed twice during a single testing session by a single tester. Results of the two tests were compared and the reliability assessed by intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs).<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> There was no significant difference in the scapula measurements taken during the two tests at each testing position. Overall, there was very good intrarater reliability (ICC \u200a=\u200a 0.88). The ICC ranged from 0.81 (at 135\u00b0) to 0.94 (at both resting and end of total shoulder abduction range).<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> The Plurimeter-V gravity inclinometer can be used effectively and reliably for measuring upward rotation of the scapula in all ranges of shoulder abduction in the coronal plane.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsm.2004.013243","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,8,23]],"date-time":"2005-08-23T12:38:23Z","timestamp":1124800703000},"page":"599-603","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":86,"title":["Measurement of scapula upward rotation: a reliable clinical procedure"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"L","family":"Watson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S M","family":"Balster","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Finch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R","family":"Dalziel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,8,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.1","first-page":"1","volume":"26","year":"1944","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg [Am]"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.2","first-page":"99","volume":"296","year":"1993","journal-title":"Clin Orthop"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2519\/jospt.1999.29.10.574"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.4","first-page":"191","volume":"285","year":"1992","journal-title":"Clin Orthop"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.5","first-page":"525","volume":"22","year":"1991","journal-title":"Contemp Orthop"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"192","DOI":"10.1097\/00132585-200008020-00008","volume":"8","year":"2000","journal-title":"Sports Med Arthrosc Rev"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.7","first-page":"173","volume":"202","year":"1986","journal-title":"Clini Orthop"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1058-2746(97)90084-7"},{"key":"2025080114501339000_39.9.599.9","unstructured":"Matsen F, Lippitt S, Sidles J, et al.
