Place the strap through the belt hook so you can secure the device on the patient.
Place four electrodes on the C3 and T2 level on the back of the Patient as well as a ground placement on the left shoulder blade.
Also place four electrodes on the front of the neck. Secure the belt around the patients waist. Then start hooking up your wires white on left, red on right, and the black cable to the shoulder blade.
Some movements are similar to the ROM. You begin each movement by holding the button down until Myovision instructs you to release the button.
Cervical flexion: Patient will tuck their chin to their chest, return to neutral and repeat 3 times. For each movement when the patient reaches the full flextion or neutral position you must push the button and hold the button at the last position until Myovision instructs you to the next motion.
Cervical Extension: Placing the devices in the same place as flexion, the patient will tilt their head back and then return to neutral. They will repeat this 3 times while you press the button when they reach the end of each motion and hold at the end until Myovision instructs you to the next motion.
Cervical Left/ Right Lateral: Placing the left device on the patients back and the right device on the patients head (both facing you), you will instruct the patient to lean their left ear to their left shoulder and then return to neutral. This motion will be repeated 3 times, pushing the button at the end of each motion and then holding the button down until Myovision instructs you to the next motion. Repeat the same thing for the right side.)
Standing Cervical Left/ Right Rotation: You will stand next to the patient and hold the devices right in front of you. You will instruct the patient to look to their left and then look forward. This motion will be repeated 3 times, pressing the button at the end of each motion and then holding the button down at the last motion until Myovision instructs you to move on.
Bent Forward Cervical Left/ Right Rotation: The patient will sit at the end of the table and bend forward slightly. You will switch the ROM devices so that the one with the white dot is in your right hand. You will place the device in your left hand on the patients head and the right device against their thoracic area. You will then instruct the patient to rotate their head to the left and then return to the neutral position and look at the floor. This motion will be repeated three times, prtessing the button at the end of each motion. Hold the button down at the last motion until Myovision instructs you that the test is complete.
