Summary of patient report/knee replacement
Hi,
The patient report states the sentence below:
"kein KS ueber der LWS, DS li. ISG, Lasegue li. endgradig"
I take this to mean this patient has no pain in the lumbar back, but does have pressure pain in the ileosacral joint. The Lasegue test indicates he can fully stretch his leg (as normal, ie unimpeded by pain, or leg or hip ailments).
Is this correct? I have seen other entries on KudoZ for 'endgradig', but they've just confused me to be honest.
Many thanks,
Alison.

full range of motion
I believe this is the most commonly used term for this.

at the end of ROM
I'd read this as 'shorthand' for: Lasegue's sign is borderline positive, with the patient reporting pain at the very end of the range of motion (ROM) of this maneuvre.
(Not sure what statement/wording would appear in an English report in that situation.)
Test position
Patient supine, examiner standing at the tested side with the distal hand around the subject's heel and proximal hand on subject's distal thigh(anterior) to maintain knee extension.
Action
Examiner slowly raises the leg until/tightness noted or full ROM is obtained. Slowly lower the leg until the pain or tightness resolves, at which point dorsiflex the ankle and have subject flex the neck.
Positive findings
- Leg and/or low back occurring with dorsiflexion and or neck flexion is indicative of dural involvement and/or sciatic nerve irritation.
- Lack of pain reproduction with dorsiflexion and/or neck flexion is indicative of hamstring tightness or sacroiliac pathology.
In clinical practice the outcome test is interpreted with respect to two variables:
- the maximum angle between the leg and the horizontal plane to which the can be lifted,
- the pain that is provoked by the movement.

Discussion
You would not perform a Lasegue test to measure the range of motion, but if the patients feels pain at a certain point.
