Device for sensing displacement during a joint mobilization procedure and method for using such a device to quantify joint mobilization and detect joint laxity

摘要

A device is configured to communicate a grade of joint displacement to a clinician during a mobilization procedure on a human or animal joint. The device includes two portions that move relative to one another, when both are engaged to a stable and moveable bone at a joint, and movement of one portion to the other is measured and shown on a display.
