    <title language="eng">The Patellostabilometer: A New Device for Quantification of Mediolateral Patella Displacement</title>
    <abstract language="eng">Mediolateral patella displacement is of interest for diagnostics and clinically relevant&#13;
research questions. Apart from manual testing, no standardized method is currently available. Proper&#13;
quantification of patella mobility is necessary to better understand pathologies at the patellofemoral&#13;
joint. Patella mobility was assessed in 25 healthy individuals using a Patellostabilometer, a new&#13;
prototype instrument for quantification of the mediolateral patella displacement. The participants&#13;
underwent measurements of the mediolateral displacement three times using the Patellostabilome-&#13;
ter. A maximal force of 10 N was applied for patella movement. Additionally, leg length and&#13;
circumference of the knee, upper- and lower-leg were measured. Lateral patella displacement of&#13;
18.27 ± 3.76 mm (range 15.85–20.64 mm, interquartile range (IQR) of 4.79) was measured. The medial&#13;
patella displacement showed 24.47 ± 6.59 mm (range 19.29–29.76 mm, IQR of 10.47). The test–retest&#13;
measurement error was 2.32 ± 1.76 mm (IQR of 2.38 mm), with five outliers. There was greater&#13;
test–retest variability between the measurements of the medial displacement compared to the lateral&#13;
one. The test–retest variability reached 7% of the patella displacement. Other parameters provided no&#13;
significant correlations. Based on the natural patellofemoral mobility, a precise and clinically relevant&#13;
quantification of patella mobility is allowed.</abstract>
