Summary

Measuring range of motion (ROM) is essential in detecting musculoskeletal deficits, monitoring the effects of treatment and progression of the disease. In Dupuytren's disease the active and passive extension deficits (AED, PED) of digits 4 and 5 are usually clinically measured using a universal, short arm goniometer which is considered the standard of care. Using the goniometer can be time consuming. Measuring the extension deficit on a standardised picture could improve follow up, since it is a faster and easier process to take a picture and upload it to the patients files. Though this gives rise to the question whether this kind of measurement would be equally accurate and reliable in comparison to regular clinical measurement using a goniometer.
