The Baseline Plastic Finger Goniometer – Flexion to Hyper-Extension is a specialised range of motion (ROM) assessment instrument designed for measuring movement of the finger joints, including the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and interphalangeal (IP) joints, as well as other small joints such as the toes. It is an essential evaluation tool for physiotherapists, occupational therapists, hand therapists and rehabilitation professionals.
Unlike traditional finger goniometers that require both hands to operate, this unique one-handed design allows the therapist to move the measuring head using a single hand while keeping the other hand free to stabilise the patient's hand or record measurements. This helps improve assessment efficiency during busy clinical sessions.
Manufactured from durable opaque black plastic with high-contrast white markings, the goniometer offers clear readability in various clinical environments. The measurement head records 110° of flexion through 40° of hyper-extension in 5° increments, while the arm incorporates a convenient 10 cm linear scale for additional finger measurements.
Its lightweight construction, compact size and simple operation make it well suited to hospitals, rehabilitation centres, private practices, sports medicine clinics and educational environments where reliable joint measurement is an important part of patient assessment and progress monitoring.
Features:
- One-Handed Operation – Allows the therapist to take measurements while keeping the other hand free to stabilise the patient or record results, improving workflow efficiency.
- Designed for Small Joint Assessment – Specifically developed for measuring the ROM of finger and toe joints for accurate clinical evaluation.
- Flexion to Hyper-Extension Measurement – Measures from 110° flexion through 40° hyper-extension, covering the movement range commonly assessed during hand rehabilitation.
- Easy-to-Read Markings – High-contrast white graduations on black plastic improve visibility during assessments.
- 5° Measurement Increments – Provides consistent and repeatable ROM measurements for patient documentation.
- Integrated 10 cm Linear Scale – Enables quick fingertip and small linear measurements without requiring an additional ruler.
- Compact & Lightweight Design – Easy to carry between treatment rooms, clinics and community visits.
Benefits:
- Supports consistent finger joint ROM assessments during rehabilitation.
- Improves clinician efficiency by allowing one-handed operation.
- Assists with documenting patient progress over multiple treatment sessions.
- Compact enough for daily use in busy clinical practices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
1. Why is a one-handed finger goniometer beneficial?
A one-handed design allows the clinician to stabilise the patient's hand or record measurements while operating the goniometer, making assessments more efficient.
2. Which joints can this goniometer measure?
It is designed to measure the range of motion of finger joints, including the MCP and IP joints, as well as other small joints such as the toes.
3. Can this be used in both private practices and hospitals?
Yes. Its compact size and durable construction make it suitable for rehabilitation clinics, hospitals, therapy practices and educational settings.
4. Does the goniometer include a ruler?
Yes. The arm incorporates a 10 cm linear scale, allowing quick linear measurements alongside ROM assessments.
5. Are the material safety certifications available?
The supplier does not specify whether the product is latex-free, BPA-free, phthalate-free or PVC-free. If these material properties are required for your facility's procurement process, please contact us before ordering.
