Spinal (Lumbar) Range of Motion Worker's name: DOI: WCD #: Use this form to describe range of motion of the spine. Indicate the active range of motion measured in degrees with an inclinometer. Bulletin No. 239 describes the criteria for measuring spinal range of motion using a single fluid-filled inclinometer. A videotape illustrating the use of a single fluid-filled inclinometer is available from the Department of Consumer and Business Services. The values in parentheses under each movement are the norms established by the Department of Consumer and Business Services.
