Knee examination
A consultant physician demonstrates knee examination techniques, inspecting the biomechanics of the knee and assessing for effusion, wasting, or hypertension. The physician performs tests for the integrity of the medial and lateral collateral ligaments, damage to the cruciate ligaments (Lackman's test, Drawer test, Pivot shift test), tests of the patella (patella apprehension test, Clarke's test), and tests of the iliotibial band (Ober's test).
