Abstract
Correlation coefficients were found to be r=090 for flexion r=085 for extension and r=090 for total inclination Intraclass coefficients were 095 for flexion 092 for extension and 095 for total inclination A poor agreement kappa=022 was found for the presence of outliers from normal values for intersegmental ROMWe conclude the device is a useful reliable tool for measuring sagittal spinal ROM in clinical practice considering the small load it confers on patients and the short amount of time the measurement involves The SpinalMouse might be more accurate after following the recommendations we make
