The definitive diagnosis for the Rothbarts Foot is made when: (1) the measured Primus Metatarsus Supinatus value (PMSv) is between 11 and 29mm, and (2) the PMSv is substantiated by Computer Analyses.Three Minute Screening for Rothbarts Foot*: Knee Bend Test, Heel Wear Patterns and Deep 1st Web Space. One positive finding, level of confidence (LC) for the Rothbarts Foot is 65%; Two positive findings, LC for the Rothbarts Foot is 75%; Three positive findings, LC for the Rothbarts Foot is 85%.
* Note: Other foot structures can produce a positive Knee Bend Test, similar Heel Wear Patterns and a Deep 1st Web Space. Hence the need to take the PMSv measurements.
