New knee measurement device put to the test in ACL patients
NCT ID NCT07200700
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a device called the GNRB arthrometer can reliably measure knee looseness (laxity) in people with an ACL tear, both before and after reconstructive surgery. Seventeen adults with a first-time ACL injury were tested by two examiners using the GNRB and an older device, the KT1000. The goal was to see if the GNRB could replace the KT1000 in everyday clinic use.
