The Value of the Forward Flexion Test and Three Tests of Leg Length Changes in the Clinical Assessment of Movement of the Sacroiliac Joint

Summary

Sixteen subjects were independently examined by three practitioners. Each assessed movement at the sacroiliac joints by the forward flexion test and by changes in apparent leg length. Agreement which may be described as fair¹ was found for the forward flexion test, but for the tests of apparent changes in leg length, agreement was no greater than would have been expected by chance.
