The stated purpose of the article by Ravenna and colleagues is to examine the
reliability of the prone instability test (PIT) in the hands of novice
clinicians, as previous reliability studies have primarily included more
experienced clinicians.
They conclude that the interrater reliability for the PIT
is low when performing the test as described in the current literature; however,
their conclusions should be interpreted cautiously given the significant
modifications made to standardize the PIT in their study, as these changes
greatly limit the capacity to make direct comparisons to earlier reliability
studies of the PIT. The modifications to the PIT used in this study are
discussed, including the use of a stabilization belt, alternate positioning of
the hips and knees, and the use of a stool for foot placement.
