2.29 SCI 3 Flashcards
1
Q
What MMT scores mean full innervation?
A
3, 4, 5
2
Q
lower MMT score than 3
A
lower than this means partial or no innervation
3
Q
ASIA scale: line drawing
A
- 3 or 4, draw a line below

- motor function preserved below neurological level of injury
- more than half of key muscles below the neurological level have a grade less than 3
8

- tells us they have motor and good strength below the level
9

A
- For complete injuries ONLY
- lowest motor and lowest sensory level with ANYTHING occurring
- add up numbers for motor score on R and L
14
Q
How do you interpret ZPP score?
A
higher the number, the more is working (DUH)
15
