Cervical Rotation
Biomechanical analysis of cervical spine rotation range of motion assessment.
Cervical Rotation
Overview
The cervical rotation assessment evaluates the range of motion and quality of movement in the cervical spine during rotation. This assessment measures the ability to achieve sufficient rotation in both directions while maintaining proper alignment.Events
| Event | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Max Left Rotation | Int | Frame of maximum left rotation |
| Max Right Rotation | Int | Frame of maximum right rotation |
Discrete Metrics
| Metric | Data Type | Units | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| MaxLeftRotation | Float | degrees | Maximum left rotation angle |
| MaxRightRotation | Float | degrees | Maximum right rotation angle |
| MaxLeftRotationSufficient | Boolean | - | Whether left rotation is sufficient (≥ 45°) |
| MaxRightRotationSufficient | Boolean | - | Whether right rotation is sufficient (≥ 45°) |
| FullRotationRangeOfMotion | Float | degrees | Total rotation range of motion |
Notes
- All angular measurements follow ISB conventions
- Sufficient rotation is defined as ≥ 45° in each direction
- Measurements are based on HeadAngleWRTTrunkXYZ.Z
