Abstract

There is acceptable intra-rater but poor inter-rater reliability with all tested arthrometers. Measures of knee laxity are comparable between Rolimeter, KLT and KT-1000 but higher for KiRA. Clinically, the present study shows that repeated arthrometry measurements should always be performed by the same investigators.
