Don't Agonise Over ACLs!
Optimise your patient management with the help of leading expert David Fevre
The Lachman test is widely recognised as the best indicator of the torn ACL. How many variations of this test do you know of?
There are 8 variations (Magee 2006). The Lachman Test assesses single plane anterior instability and the standard procedure is carried out with the examiner holding the patient’s knee between full extension and 30° knee flexion. The femur is stabilised with the upper hand of the examiner whilst the proximal tibia is moved anteriorly. A positive sign is indicated by a soft end feel in comparison to the un-injured leg.
