The finger-to-nose-test measures smooth, coordinated upper-extremity movement by having the examinee touch the tip of his or her nose with his or her index finger. On one variation of the test, the examiner holds out his or her finger, about an arm’s length from the patient. The patie...

The finger-to-nose test is routinely performed during the clinical assessment of patients with cognitive impairments. Although widely known to screen for cerebellar dysfunction by unmasking appendicular ataxia, we have found that this test could also be interpreted from a cognitive perspective. We descr...

A Review of the Finger-to-Nose Test for Assessing Coordination in Children with Developmental Coordination DisorderNegi, PriyankaSharma, NidhiKaur, SimranjeetJournal of Clinical & Diagnostic Research
Interpretation: In absence of a gold phenotypic standard for developmental coordination disorder recognition, it remains elusive whether the finger-to-nose test in these patients represents a sufficiently accurate entity to reflect symptoms distinctive of this disorder. Based on the relatively good results...
We aimed to kinematically validate that the time to perform the Finger-to-Nose Test (FNT) assesses coordination by determining its construct, convergent and discriminant validity. Experimental, criterion standard study. Both clinical and experimental evaluations were done at a research facility in a ...
Background and Purpose-Emergency medical services (EMS) stroke recognition facilitates rapid care, however, prehospital stroke screening tools rely on signs that are often absent in posterior circulation strokes. We hypothesized that addition of the finger-to-nose (FTN) test to the Cincinnati ...

The purpose of this study was to determine the intrarater and interrater reliability of measurements of three clinical features of coordination based on the performance of the "finger-to-nose" test. Subjects. Thirty-seven persons with traumatic brain injury (26 male, 11 female), aged 17 to ...
