GAENSLEN TESTGaenslen test, Gaenslen sign (gĕns′lĕnz) [Frederick J. Gaenslen, U.S. orthopedist, 1877–1937] A procedure used to identify the presence of sacroiliac dysfunction. The patient lies supine close to the edge of the examination table or is placed in a side-lying position with both legs pulled to the chest. The examiner extends the patient's leg and forces it into hyperextension while the other leg remains held against the chest. A positive test result produces pain in the sacroiliac region.
