Although knee kinematics has been investigated widely, no standard, objective evaluation of the kinematics behaviour. Of the joint is used at present during surgical treatment. We propose a kinematic protocol for a manual intraoperative evaluation of the knee behaviour. with which the range of motion, the 'screw-home' mechanism and knee instabilities could be quantified. The method does not require anatomical landmarks, because it is computed from standard tests used in clinical practice and fives a decomposition of the knee movement comparable to the well known Grood and Suntay analysis [E.S. Grood, W.J. Suntay, A joint coordinate system for the clinical description of three-dimensional motions: application to the knee, J. Biomech. Eng. 105 (1983) 136-144]. We describe the protocol, report the evaluation of its: numerical features and provide a comparison with Grood. and Sunray method on ten porcine knees. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
