Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome - Special Tests | Rationale & Interpretation

The video tutorial covers three tests used in diagnosing tarsal tunnel syndrome: Tinel's test, dorsiflexion eversion test, and triple compression test. Tinel's test is noted for its weak clinical value, while the dorsiflexion eversion and triple compression tests have strong psychometric properties. The tutorial explains the procedures, positions, and expected outcomes of each test, emphasizing the importance of specificity and sensitivity in diagnosing tarsal tunnel syndrome.

Compare the specificity and sensitivity of Tinel's sign with the dorsiflexion eversion test.
