INDICATIONS

PATIENT'S HISTORY

LIST OF TESTS

MENTAL STATUS EXAMINATION - MSE
The assessment of consciousness, often using the glasgow coma scale (GCS)
Mental status examination, often including the abbreviated mental test score (AMTS) or mini mental state examination (MMSE)
Global assessment of higher functions
Ontracranial pressure is estimated by fundoscopy; this also enables assessment for microvascular disease

CRANIAL NERVE EXAMINATION (I-XII)
Sense of smell (i), visual fields and acuity (ii), eye movements (iii, iv, vi) and pupils (iii, sympathetic and parasympathetic), sensory function of face (v), strength of facial (vii) and shoulder girdle muscles (xi), hearing (vii, viii), taste (vii, ix, x), pharyngeal movement and reflex (ix, x), tongue movements (xii)
These are tested by their individual purposes (e.g. the visual acuity can be tested by a snellen chart)

MOTOR SYSTEM
MUSCLE STRENGTH, OFTEN GRADED ON THE MRC SCALE 0 TO 5 (I.E., 0 = COMPLETE PARALYSIS TO 5 = NORMAL POWER)
grades 4−, 4 and 4+ maybe used to indicate movement against slight, moderate and strong resistance respectively
MUSCLE TONE & SIGNS OF RIGIDITY
EXAMINATION OF POSTURE
Decerebrate
Decorticate
Hemiparetic
RESTING TREMORS
ABNORMAL MOVEMENTS :
SEIZURE
FASCICULATIONS
TONE
Spasticity
Pronator drift
Rigidity
Cogwheeling (abnormal tone suggestive of Parkinson's disease)
Gegenhalten – is resistance to passive change, where the strength of antagonist muscles increases with increasing examiner force. More common in dementia

DEEP TENDON REFLEXES - DTR
Reflexes: masseter, biceps and triceps tendon, knee tendon, ankle jerk and plantar (i.e., babinski sign)
Globally, brisk reflexes suggest an abnormality of the UMN or pyramidal tract,
While decreased reflexes suggest abnormality in the anterior horn, LMN, nerve or motor end plate
A reflex hammer is used for this testing

SENSATION - SENSORY
Sensory system testing involves provoking sensations of fine touch, pain and temperature
Fine touch can be evaluated with a monofilament test, touching various dermatomes with a nylon monofilament to detect any subjective absence of touch perception
LIGHT TOUCH
PAIN
TEMPERATURE
VIBRATION
POSITION SENSE
GRAPHESTHESIA
STEREOGNOSIS, AND
TWO-POINT DISCRIMINATION (FOR DISCRIMINATIVE SENSE)
EXTINCTION
ROMBERG TEST
– 2 out of the following 3 must be intact to maintain balance: i. vision ii. vestibulocochlear system iii. epicritic sensation

CEREBELLUM - CEREBELLAR TESTING
DYSMETRIA
Finger-to-nose test
Ankle-over-tibia test
DYSDIADOCHOKINESIS
Rapid pronation-supination
ATAXIA
Assessment of gait
NYSTAGMUS
INTENTION TREMOR
STACCATO SPEECH
