Introduction: The objective of this study is to conduct a systematic review on the reliability and validity of various smartphone applications for spinal range of motion (ROM) measurements.Methods: Eleven studies were selected following an electronic search of PubMed, CINAHAL, Medline, Embase and SPORTDiscus. Quality appraisals of selected studies were conducted using a standardized appraisal tool.Results: Most studies demonstrated a good intra- and inter-rater reliability, as well as validity in more than 50% of joint movements. At the same time, relative reliability/validity outcomes (e.g. interclass correlation co-efficient) were stronger than absolute reliability/validity outcomes (e.g. mean differences, limits of agreement). Spinal rotation movement showed less reliability and validity when compared to other spinal movements.ConclusionsːResult of the study supports the use of smartphone applications for ROM measurements of spinal joints. However, we cannot advocate the most appropriate application for spinal ROM measurement or suggest which application is superior to all others. As clinicians have multiple options in selecting applications, it is recommended they use applications that have proven reliable and valid for that particular joint. Data from this study provides clinicians with evidence-based research on smartphone devices for measuring spinal joint ROM in clinical settings.
