- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The main parameters (antero-posterior and rotational laxity) will be<br /><br>statistically analyzed using a t-test or a paired t-test. The difference in<br /><br>rotation due to the attachment sides will be analyzed using Spearmen<br /><br>correlation. Additionally, regression analysis is used to determine the<br /><br>reliability of the clinical tests compared to the PKTD. Because, this is a<br /><br>feasibility study all p-values generated in hypothesis testing will be<br /><br>interpreted within the context of an explorative study.</p><br>
