Purpose[edit | edit source]

The purpose of the Schober test is to reflect the lumbar ROM during flexion.(Rezvani. 2012 (1B))[1].

Technique[edit | edit source]

  1. Original Schöber Test
    The patient is standing with his back towards the examiner. The examiner determines the location of the lumbosacral junction and marks it by drawing a horizontal line. A second line is marked 10 cm above the first line. The difference between the measurements in erect and flexion positions indicates the outcome of the lumbar flexion. (Rezvani. 2012 (1B))Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title.
  2. Modified Schöber Index (also called short Schöber test) (Lilius 1989 (1B))Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title.
    The patient is standing with his back towards the examiner. The examiner determines the location of the lumbosacral junction by precising the location of the dimples of Venus. The intersection of the top of the dimples of Venus is marked by drawing a horizontal line. This line acts as the landmark. The second line is marked 10 cm above the first and the third is marked 5 cm below the first line. The difference between the measurements in erect and flexion positions indicates the outcome of the lumbar flexion. (Rezvani. 2012 (1B))Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title.
  3. Modified-modified Schöber Test
    The patient is standing with his back towards the examiner. The examiner locates the inferior margin of the SIPS with the thumbs and then marks the intersections of the SIPS by drawing a horizontal line. The second line is drawn 15 cm above the midpoint of the first horizontal line. The difference between the measurements in erect and flexion positions indicates the outcome of the lumbar flexion. (Rezvani. 2012 (1B))Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title.

Evidence[edit | edit source]

  1. Original Schöber Test
    The validity against radiographs was according to Macrae. strong (r=0.90), according to Rahali-Khachlouf. moderate (r=0.68).
    The interclass (r=0.90) and intraclass (r=0.96) reliability was found to be excellent. (Rezvani. 2012 (1B)) Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title.
  2. Modified Schöber Index
    The validity against radiographs was according to Macrae. strong (r=0.97), according to Rahali-Khachlouf. moderate (r=0.59).
    The interclass (r=0.92) and intraclass (r=0.96) reliability was found to be excellent (Tousignant 2005 (4))Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title.
  3. Modified-modified Schöber Test
    The validity of the modified-modified Schober test is moderate (r=0.67) with an excellent interclass (r=0.91) and intraclass (r=95) reliability. (Rezvani. 2012 (1B))Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; name cannot be a simple integer. Use a descriptive title.
