Let's review the Anterior Drawer/Lachman Test – crucial assessments for ACL stability!

Here's how you do it, future NPs: With the patient lying down, bend the knee and stabilize the thigh with one hand. Grasp the proximal tibia with the other, then gently pull the tibia forward.

The key difference between the two tests is knee flexion:
👉 Anterior Drawer Test: Knee flexed to 90 degrees
👉 Lachman Test: Knee flexed to 20-30 degrees

You're looking for excessive anterior translation of the tibia compared to the femur, indicating a positive test for ACL instability!

But remember, a positive sign doesn’t confirm an ACL tear alone, so imaging like an MRI will be needed to confirm the diagnosis.

Today, we’re exploring an advanced knee assessment technique—the Valgus Stress Test! This test helps us screen for possible MCL injuries.

Valgus is the term we use to describe pushing or bending inward, towards the midline of the body.

How to Perform:
1️⃣ Have the patient lie down with the knee slightly flexed (20-30°).
2️⃣ Stabilize the outer thigh with one hand.
3️⃣ Use the other hand to externally rotate the ankle while applying a valgus force to the knee.

👀 Interpreting the Results:
👉 Normal: No pain, clicking, or excessive movement = MCL is stable.
👉 Positive Test: Excessive joint movement, clicking, or popping may indicate an MCL injury.

Let's dive into McMurray's Test! As NPs, this is a tool we can use to help us assess for potential meniscal tears.🦵

Here's how to use this tool as a nurse practitioner: Flex the knee and apply rotation (inward or outward) to the lower leg, then gradually extend the leg while maintaining the rotation.

Now, what are we searching for? 🧐 If there's a click, pop, or pain...that's a positive sign! 🎯 This indicates there could be a meniscal tear.

Who can tell us the gold standard test for diagnosing a meniscal tear? Let us know in the comments! 💬

The Markle test is a physical exam technique used to assess for peritoneal inflammation or possible appendicitis.

To perform this test, instruct the patient to stand on their toes and then suddenly drop down onto their heels.

A positive test occurs if the patient experiences sharp pain in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen, which may suggest peritoneal irritation or appendicitis.
