Picking The Right Knee Special Tests
from The New Grad Physio Podcast · host Andy Barker
Do you feel your knee pain assessments go ok until you get to your special testing? Maybe you pick something up you weren't expecting... Or your patient tests fine with the tests you thought they would be sore with? Most new grad's make some simple, but critical mistakes during their objective assessments... Most of the time without even knowing! It is easy to get it wrong when you have been taught to do your special tests in a certain way (this is the way all Universities teach you). But this needs to change if you want to use special tests in the right way... To ensure you find the right patient diagnosis and that you do not miss a serious injury like a meniscal tear or an ACL rupture. Listen to this week's podcast episode to learn everything you need to know about knee special testing! Enjoy the show! PS. Andy would love to hear your feedback on this podcast.
