Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for further development and adjudication due to a need for additional evidence regarding the Veteran's range of motion in active, passive, weightbearing, non-weightbearing, and flare-up conditions.
The deciding factor: Additional development is necessary to adequately evaluate the Veteran's left knee disabilities as the prior examinations did not comply with Correia, Sharp, and DeLuca standards.
