Purpose
[edit | edit source]
This test is used to detect ligamentous instability of the second and third carpometacarpal joints. [1] It's also known as the Linscheid Compression Test or Squeeze Test. This is a clinical test used to assess the integrity of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) and the lunotriquetral (LT) joint in the wrist.It is also used in examination of the Wrist: Ulnar-Sided Wrist Pain Due to Ligamentous Injury[2]
