Q
A

achilles: S1
sitting: dorsiflex –> (+) = plantar flex
supine: flex hip & knee and ext-rot across opposite shin, dorsiflex –> (+) plantar flex

277
Q
A

ankle clonus –> jerk into dorsiflexion

test rhythmic oscillations b/w dorsiflex and plantar flex

(+) = hyperactive reflexes: graded 4+

278
Q

cut stim reflexes: abdominal

A

(+) = contraction of ab M and deviation of naval towards stim

can be MASKED in obesity: use finger to retract naval away from side to be stimulated and note contraction with retracting finger

above naval: T8-10

below naval: T10-12

279
Q

babinski

brudzinski

  • (+) flexion of hips and knees with NECK FLEX

kernig

  • (+) = pain with knee extension
282
Q

lumbosacral radiculopathy

A

straight leg raise - stretches sciatic N & sens for disc herniation

  • S1 commpression can also be associated with ipsi calf wasting and weak ankle dorsiflex

contralat straight-leg raise

what don’t you do to a stuporous/comatose pt?

A

dilate pupils

flex neck: rule out fx before neck manipulation

288
Q

oculocephalic reflex

A

doll’s eye mvmts = intact brainstem

  • hold open upper eyelids
  • as head turns to one side, eyes move towards opposite side

absent: eyes move towards direction of head turning

289
Q

vestibulo-ocular reflex

A
