Blue Jay Take A Range Check Goniometer, 8 Inch, 360 Degree, Plastic

The Blue Jay Take A Range Check Goniometer is an 8-inch clear plastic 360-degree instrument designed for accurate range-of-motion measurement in clinical and rehabilitation settings. The transparent plastic construction allows direct observation of the joint's axis of motion and its range of movement during assessment. The 360-degree head features three scales calibrated to the ISOM (International Standards of Measurement) system, ensuring compatibility with standardized ROM documentation protocols used in physical therapy and occupational therapy.

Note: This product is expected to be in stock after 11/9/26. Orders placed before that date will ship once inventory is received.

Ideal For

This goniometer is an excellent choice for physical therapists, occupational therapists, and athletic trainers who need a reliable, ISOM-compatible instrument for routine range-of-motion assessments at a practical price point. It is well-suited for student training programs and educational settings where a clear, easy-to-read goniometer helps instructors demonstrate joint axis alignment and measurement technique. The 8-inch arm length makes it effective for mid-size joint measurements including the elbow, wrist, knee, and ankle where a full 12-inch goniometer may be unwieldy. Any clinic or therapy program looking for a dependable, affordable plastic goniometer for daily use or as a backup instrument will find the Blue Jay Take A Range Check a practical and cost-effective choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this goniometer differ from a 12-inch model?
The 8-inch arm length is shorter than the standard 12-inch clinical goniometer, making it more compact and easier to handle for mid-size joint measurements or in settings where portability is important. For large joints such as the hip or shoulder where longer arms improve alignment accuracy, a 12-inch model is generally preferred. The 8-inch size is well-suited for elbow, wrist, knee, and ankle assessments.

What does ISOM-calibrated mean?
ISOM refers to the International Standards of Measurement (also known as STFR), a standardized system for measuring and recording joint range of motion used widely in physical therapy and rehabilitation. An ISOM-calibrated goniometer has scales designed to produce readings compatible with these standards, ensuring that measurements are consistent with published normative data and accepted clinical documentation formats.

How do I clean the goniometer?
Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild disinfectant between patient uses, following your facility's infection control protocols. Avoid submerging the instrument or using harsh solvents that may cloud or damage the transparent plastic. Store flat or in a protective case to prevent warping of the arms over time.

Why is transparent plastic preferred for goniometers?
Transparent plastic allows the practitioner to see through the instrument to the joint being measured, making it easier to align the goniometer arms with anatomical landmarks and the axis of motion. This improves placement accuracy compared to opaque instruments, particularly for smaller joints or complex measurement positions.
