This site describes the "maniobra del escape rotuliano". I'm not having any luck yet with any tests that duplicate the conditions it describes. https://books.google.com/books?id=IMhzdIilp4QC&pg=PA7&lpg=PA...

Brush test? Seems like more than a coincidence that the literal translation of "cepilla" results in a specific test for fluid on the knee (which this patient has). Rethinking my translation for that first term. http://ahn.mnsu.edu/athletictraining/spata/kneemodule/specia...

"Escape rotuliano" seems to be the same concept.

Clarke's sign (patellar grind test)

You need to read the description of the test on the first site, which I was unable to copy and paste

7. Clarke’s Sign – Clarke’s Sign is a test designed to identify the presence of chondromalacia patella and can only be done once. A positive test will cause a significant amount of discomfort or pain, and most clients will not allow for its repeat. The patient lies prone. With the web of the hand the therapist presses the patella down towards the feet in an inferior direction. The client is then asked to contract the quadriceps muscle as the therapist continues applying force. The test is positive if the patient cannot complete the contraction without pain, or has a great deal of apprehension about tightening their quads. A positive Clarke’s sign requires a referral; however, quadriceps, hamstring and adductor massage may reduce the pain in the meantime.

also,
I am not reading cepillo and escape as one test, but two separate tests.
Note from asker:
Hi Liz. I had already translated "Signo para rodilla cepilla" as "Patellar grind test". I had read "signos" to mean this was two different tests with "escape" being a second test possibly to check for dislocation. Are you interpreting this as only one test?
Hello again Liz. Further research seems to be upholding your initial suggestion. Based on the links I have posted above. I now believe that "signos específicos para rodilla cepilla y escape" should be "brush test and Clarke's sign test".
