Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess the reliability of the VALD HumanTrak system for estimating shoulder range of motion in the sagittal and frontal planes. Intra- and inter-day reliability was assessed during fixed- and free-range shoulder movements. ICC ranged from good to excellent for abduction (0.753 - 0.959) and flexion (0.868 - 0.975) and poor to good for adduction (0.417 - 0.893) and extension (0.443 - 0.757). The VALD HumanTrak can be a reliable tool to estimate shoulder range of motion within the same day and across multiple days.
