description | Background: Testing of tendon (T) reflex is the basic method used in
the diagnostic procedure of clinical neurology. Measurement of T
reflexes precisely can be a valuable adjunct to clinical examination.
Quantification of T reflexes may provide more accurate results. Aims:
To analyze the effect of elbow position on biceps T reflex. Settings
and Design: A self-controlled clinical trial of biceps T reflex
testing at the Electrophysiology Unit of the Department of Physical
Medicine and Rehabilitation. Methods and Materials: Biceps T reflex
was obtained utilizing a hand-held electronic reflex hammer in 50
extremities of 25 healthy volunteers and the effect of elbow position
(at 90°, 120° and 150°) on reflex response was
evaluated. Statistical Analysis: Repeated-measures analysis of
variance by the General Linear Model and Pearson correlation test
procedures. Results: Onset latency was significantly shorter at
120° of elbow position. The maximum amplitude value of biceps T
reflex was obtained at 90° of elbow position. Onset latency of the
reflex correlated significantly with the height and arm length but not
with age. Conclusions: The electrophysiological measurement of T
reflexes is an easy and useful method in the quantification of
reflexes, supplying more objective data. However, when performing T
reflex studies, the position of the extremity should be taken into
consideration to achieve more reliable results. |
