HALO Digital Goniometer and Inclinometer

The HALO Digital Goniometer and Inclinometer is an advanced medical device that allows practitioners to assess patients with enhanced accuracy and efficiency. Unlike standard analogue goniometers, the HALO unit only requires one hand to operate, so practitioners are more free to help patients shift into the required position for a measurement to be taken.

What Is a Goniometer?

Goniometers are tools used by healthcare practitioners like physiotherapists, occupational therapists and orthopaedic surgeons to measure how far a patient is able to move or bend a joint. This can aid in the assessment and treatment of conditions that affect a patient's ability to fully move their joints. Unlike most goniometers, the HALO unit is digital rather than analogue, and is therefore able to provide more objective readings.

What Is an Inclinometer?

Inclinometers are tools for measuring the angle an individual is in relation to gravity, or a selected point of reference. Similarly to goniometers, these devices can aid in range of movement assessments, including the flexion or extension of certain joints, which in turn can aid the work of medical practitioners or fitness trainers.

Why Should I Choose the HALO Digital Goniometer?

With this two-in-one device, practitioners can perform motion evaluations with greater ease, accuracy and efficiency than ever before. As it only requires one hand to use, the practitioner can use their free hand to support the patient during a measurement, or to write down a result, while its lasers mark points of measurements for reliable results every time.

How Accurate Is the HALO Digital Goniometer?

Due to its advanced, high-tech design, the HALO Digital Goniometer returns far more accurate results than many analogue models. As they are accurate to within +/- 1 degree, and requires no manual calculation, practitioners can use the patient's results to decide on next steps with greater confidence and objectivity then when using an analogue device. 

How Quickly Does the HALO Goniometer Take Readings?

For improved efficiency and speed during medical assessments, highly accurate results are the returned by the device in only five seconds, and do not require any further calculation from the practitioner. This can help save time for both the patient and the healthcare professional, especially if more than one joint assessments needs to be carried out.

Additionally, figures can be easily seen on the bright backlit display, and noted down with a lowered risk of being misread.
