Anatomical Movement[edit | edit source]
Finger metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint flexion
Testing position[edit | edit source]
Patient is sitting with forearm and hands supported, forearm in midposition, wrist neutral and MCP joint in neutral position.
Goniometer Placement[edit | edit source]
| AXIS LOCATION | STATIONARY ARM | MOVEMENT ARM |
|---|---|---|
| Dorsal aspect of MCP joint | Dorsal midline of the metacarpal | Dorsal midline of the proximal phalanx |
Expected Findings[edit | edit source]
Expected range of motion is 90 degrees.[1]
