-> muscle strength
- grade 0 to 5
- 0 = no mvt
- 1 = Trace of contraction
- 2 = Full AROM, gravity limited
- 3 = Full AROM, against gravity
- 4 = Full AROM, against resitance
- 5 = normal power
LTT
= light touch test
- for superficial surface sensation
- “tell me yes if you feel the light touch”
- “similar to the one on forehead?”
0 = abs; 1= altered; 2= normal
