1
Q
Diagnosing upper motor neuron problem?
A
no wasting or fasciculation, increased tone (spasticity), reduced power, increased tendon reflex, extensor plantar response, reduced rapid alternating movements
2
Q
Diagnosing lower motor neuron problem?
A
yes wasting, possible fasciculation, normal or decreased tone, reduced poer, decreased tendon reflex, flexor plantar response, normal rapid altenrating movements
