© 2014 American Physical Therapy Association. Background. Glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) is a common poststroke complication. Treatment of GHS is hampered by the lack of objective, real-time clinical measurements.Objective. The aims of this study wer...

The effect of arm position on the ultrasonographic measurements of the acromion-greater tuberosity distance (2014)
Journal Article
Kumar, P., Bourke, C., Flanders, J., Gorman, T., & Patel, H. (2014). The effect of arm position on the ultrasonographic measurements of the acromion-greater tuberosity distance. Physiotherapy Theory and Practice, 30(3), 171-177. https://doi.org/10.3109/09593985.2013.834490

Ultrasonographic measurements of acromion-greater tuberosity (AGT) distance have shown to be reliable and valid in the assessment of glenohumeral subluxation (GHS) in patients with stroke. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effect o... Read More about The effect of arm position on the ultrasonographic measurements of the acromion-greater tuberosity distance.
