C

A diagnostic test used in horses with pain in the distalhock. It is performed by applying firm digital pressure to the medial aspect of the distaltarsus while the limb is held in a raised and slightly flexed position. A postive response is recorded if the horses flexes and abducts its limb away from pressure. A positive test can indicate osteoarthritis of the hock (bone spavin).
