Evaluation of the effectiveness of bandages on restricting carpus range of motion in healthy dogs at a walk using electrogoniometry

To limit range of motion (ROM) of the carpal joint of dogs after injuries, bandages such as modified Robert Jones or Robert Jones with splint are applied. Strapping, process of applying adhesive tape to limit joint motion, is routinely used on humans but not on dogs (Kauranen et al. 1997). Studies investigating the efficacy of bandage procedures on motor performance of carpal joint are lacking in veterinary medicine. Electrogoniometry has been used in human medicine alternative to manual goniometry. Few studies have been designed to evaluate the validation of electrogoniometry in dogs (Colin et al. 2007), and no accurate standardised protocol for an electrogoniometer (EG) fixation on the carpus of dogs has been assessed.
