Q

What is a Myotome

A

Segmental innervation of muscle supplied by a single nerve.
There is overlap in muscle supply, therefore, KEY muscles are tested for weakness.
NOT TESTED FOR PAIN
Tested according to principles of manual muscle testing

17
Q

Grade 0

A

No contraction palpable

18
Q

Grade 1

A

Trace value

Evidence of a slight contractibility but no joint movement

19
Q

Grade 2-

A

Poor - value

Initiates motion if gravity is eliminated

20
Q

Grade 2

A

Poor Value - 25%

Complete range of motion with gravity eliminated

21
Q

Grade 2+

A

Poor + value

Initiates motion against gravity

22
Q

Grade 3-

A

Fair - value

Some but not complete range of motion against gravity

23
Q

Grade 3

A

Fair Value - 50%

Complete range of motion against gravity

24
Q

Grade 3+

A

Fair + value

Complete range of motion against gravity with minimal resistance

25
Q

Grade 4

A

Good value - 75%

Complete range of motion against gravity with some (moderate) resistance

26
Q

Grade 5

A

Normal value - 100%

Complete range of motion against gravity with maximal resistance

27
Q

Are Myotomes testing a Nerve Root or a Peripheral Nerve? What is it called?

A

Myotomes are testing the Nerve Root, therefore it is called RADICULOPATHY
