Deep tendon reflex is fundamental for a neurological examination. A hyperactive reflex response is correlated with spasticity, which can also be associated with the degree of damage to the supraspinal input, essentially assessing the severity of traumatic brain injury. Clinical evaluation of the myo...

Deep tendon reflexes are one of the main parameters of the neurological examination in many diseases. Reflex responses increase in upper motor neuron diseases due to a lack of suprasegmental control such as spasticity and rigidity. This information provided by the reflex response makes it an indispen...

Deep tendon reflexes grading scale Classifying the responses to reflex tests according to the intensity of the reflex response enables an easy comparison of results between different limbs, sides of the body, and changes over time. The results of deep tendon reflex tests are graded in five stages...
Deep tenDon Reflex's CHALLENGE charts are noted for their pattern where Freeze Arrows in the same position start and end extremely close together (separated by a 64th beat), giving the impression of one long, multi-hit Freeze Arrow.
These usually indicate an interruption of corticospinal and other descending pathways that influence the reflex arc due to a suprasegmental lesion, that is, a lesion above the level of the spinal reflex pathways. By convention the deep tendon reflexes are graded as follows: 0 = no response; ...
knee jerk, knee-jerk reflex, patellar reflex - a reflex extension of the leg resulting from a sharp tap on the patellar tendon light reflex, pupillary reflex, miosis, myosis - reflex contraction of the sphincter muscle of the iris in response to a bright light (or certain drugs) causing ...
P-DTR addresses musculoskeletal problems by focusing on an important, but largely overlooked apparatus of the human body: the mechanoreceptor system.
and he can swallow paste food. Owing to the acceleration of the deep tendon reflex, spastic paraplegia was diagnosed. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed at 2 years and 9 months showed diffuse high intensity of the white matter in T2-weighted images in association with the maturatio...
