The pivot shift test is the only clinical test which correlates with knee function following rupture of the ACL. A grade is given to the pivot shift in a subjective manner, leading to efforts to quantify the bone movements and correlate them to the grade. However, the dynamic and unconstrained nature of the manoeuvre introduces important kinematic variability.Our main objective was to develop a method...
The pivot shift test is the only clinical test that has been shown to correlate with subjective criteria of knee joint function following rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament. The grade of the pivot shift is important in predicting short- and long-term outcome. However, because this grade is established by a clinician in a subjective manner, the pivot shift’s value as a clinical tool is reduced...
The pivot shift test reproduces a complex instability of the knee joint following rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament. The grade of the pivot shift test has been shown to correlate to subjective criteria of knee joint function, return to physical activity and long-term outcome. This severity is represented by a grade that is attributed by a clinician in a subjective manner, rendering the pivot...
