Validity and Reliability of Dr. Goniometer in Elbow Flexion
Sponsor: University of Beykent
Summary
This study aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Dr. Goniometer application for measuring elbow flexion by comparing it with a manual goniometer. Conducted at Beykent University, the study will include 60 participants without upper extremity issues. Measurements will be taken on the dominant arm using both a manual goniometer and Dr. Goniometer, each repeated twice. Dr. Goniometer measurements will be performed twice by two different evaluators. Validity will be assessed using the Pearson correlation coefficient, while reliability will be evaluated with ICC and SEM. Measurement differences will be analyzed using a paired t-test. The results will contribute to determining the clinical applicability of the Dr. Goniometer application.

Dr. Goniometer Application
The Dr. Goniometer application is a digital tool used for measuring elbow flexion range of motion (ROM). In this study, participants' elbow flexion ROM will be assessed using both the Dr. Goniometer application and a manual goniometer. Measurements will be taken twice by two different raters to evaluate the validity and reliability of the digital application compared to the manual goniometer.
