Merge discussion

[edit]

Hello all, I believe these two articles are discussing exactly the same thing, however they are both written from different angles and need merging. Please discuss. Unfortunately I do not have the time to do this at the moment, if anyone would like to take this on I would be grateful Captain n00dle\Talk 13:32, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They are both different tests: The Trendelenberg test is for valve insuffiency in the veins of the lower limb (performed supine with a blood pressure cuff), whereas the Trendelenberg sign is a sign/test for abductor weakness (performed standing with one leg lifted off the ground).Jjameyson (talk) 10:28, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

edit: My mistake. They are both discussing Trendelenberg's Test (often called the Trendelenberg test). I agree that they should be merged. Jjameyson (talk) 08:28, 22 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The articles should absolutely be merged. Jjameyson, neither article is discussing the SIGN, rather, both are discussing the TEST. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.249.186.42 (talk) 21:13, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of any further discussion, I have merged the two articles into this page, and redirected Trendelenburg's test here. GILO   A&E 06:04, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
