Dear list members,

An interesting discussion has developed amongst our staff following a recent
practical exam in which one student chose to measure limb length in
standing, rather than in supine lying, as is more commonly the case.

A search of the literature has produced conflicting evidence regarding
patient positioning for these measurements.

We would welcome your opinions on this matter.
