Scoliosis Portable Medical Evaluation

Scoliosis Portable Evaluation Meter Features,Using and Specifications

The Scoliosis Portable Evaluation Meter is an essential tool for scoliosis screening and monitoring. Designed for diagnosing back and spine scoliosis in both adults and children, this meter measures spinal rotation caused by scoliosis, spinal deformities, or injuries. Its large display offers clear readings between 0 and 30 degrees of rotation.

For best results, pair it with the Adam’s Forward Bend Test to gauge back deformity rotation. Such insights can guide decisions about further medical evaluations.

Durable, lightweight, and portable, the Scoliosis Meter is ideal for screening spinal alignment. Suitable for adults and children, its dimensions are 7.5″ x 3.5″, weighing just one pound. Widely used by schools, clinics, doctors, and wellness programs, it’s easy to maintain, comes with a protective case, and is perfect for on-the-go evaluations.

Using the Scoliosis Portable Evaluation Meter:

  • Preparation: Ensure the patient is in a comfortable standing position, with their back exposed.
  • Alignment: Align the base of the meter with the lower part of the spine or the starting point of the curve.
  • Measurement: Gently press the meter against the back, allowing the device to gauge the curve’s rotation.
  • Readout: Check the device’s large display for the precise measurement of the spinal rotation in degrees.
  • Adam’s Forward Bend Test (if applicable):
    Instruct the patient to bend forward, keeping their feet together and arms hanging down.
    Use the meter to measure the prominence or hump, which indicates the degree of rotation.
  • Recording: Document the measurement for reference, tracking, and further evaluation.
  • Referral Guidance: Depending on the measurement and its deviation from the norm, decide if the patient requires further medical evaluation or intervention.
  • Clean Up: After use, wipe down the meter with a disinfectant or suitable cleaning solution to maintain hygiene.
  • Storage: Place the meter in its protective carry and storage case to ensure its safety.
