Summary:

       Poor results of inter- and intraexaminer reliability of movement palpation for sacroiliac movement restriction are quoted from the literature. This is followed by an analysis of the shortcomings of the current diagnostic techniques. In 64 patients a new sign was tested and first compared with a set of 3 – 4 routinely applied tests which confirmed its reliability. The interexaminer reliability was tested in 33 patients (66 s.i. joints) and found to agree in 82 % (kapa = 0.68).

        Key words: sacroiliac movement restriction, movement palpation, palpatory illusion,
