CROM (Cervical Range of Motion) Basic Spinal Assessment Set

Use the CROM (Cervical Range-Of-Motion Instrument) to easily and quickly obtain accurate, objective, repeatable measurements of cervical movement.

The CROM combines magnets with AMA-required inclinometers. It eliminates slippage, positioning, zeroing and tracking errors common with stand-alone inclinometers, plus it allows measurement of rotation movements in the upright position.

Use the CROM to document:

• Standard measurements
• Sub-occipital flexion and extension
• Forward head measurements (deluxe model only)
• Lateral flexion
• Cervical rotation

The lightweight CROM secures comfortably with hook-and-loop straps.

Advantages of using the CROM:

• Positions easily and securely like a pair of sunglasses
• Examiner's hands remain free to guide patient’s movements
• Inclinometers are preset to frame eliminating zeroing time and errors
• Fluid damped inclinometers permit fast, accurate readings without waiting for oscillations to damp out
• Positions to the nose and ears, eliminates the substantial error (10% or more) common in stand alone inclinometer placement
• Secured to the head by hook and loop straps, eliminates tracking errors since it will not slip during movement
• Magnetic reference eliminates shoulder and torso movements during rotation

The CROM Basic includes:

• CROM mainframe, straps and nosepiece
• Rotation arm
• Magnetic reference
• Standardized written protocol
• Instructional DVD (VHS format upon request)
• Attractive vinyl carrying case
• Full one year warranty
