Name
Examination of deep tendon reflexes
Description
Findings observed during the physical examination of deep tendon reflexes in the limbs.
Keywords
examination nervous system reflexes tendon
Purpose
For recording a description and clinical interpretation of the findings observed during the physical examination of deep tendon reflexes in the limbs.
Use
Use to record a description of the overall findings observed during the physical examination of deep tendon reflexes. This initial draft archetype consists only of the core examination pattern data elements (as per CLUSTER.exam_pattern) and will likely be expanded further over time as specific clinical requirements are identified.

This archetype has been specifically designed to be used in the 'Examination findings' SLOT within the CLUSTER.exam_nervous_system archetype, but can also be used within the OBSERVATION.exam and other OBSERVATION or CLUSTER archetypes, where clinically appropriate.

The CLUSTER.exclusion_exam archetype can be nested within the 'Examination not done' SLOT to optionally record explicit details about the examination not being performed.

Use to incorporate the narrative descriptions of clinical findings within existing or legacy clinical systems into an archetyped format, using the 'Clinical Description' data element.
Misuse
Not to be used for recording the clinical history about deep tendon reflexes - use specific OBSERVATION and CLUSTER archetypes. For example OBSERVATION.story and CLUSTER.symptom.

Not to be used to record the response to Masseter reflex (Jaw jerk). Use CLUSTER.exam_cranial_nerves for this purpose.

Not to be used to record the respons to the Plantar reflex (Babinski response/sign). Use CLUSTER.exam.foot for this purpose.

Constraint for DV_CODED_TEXT
  • Absent
    [Reflex not evident. May be recorded as '0'.]
  • Equivocal
    [Reflex possibly present. May be recorded as '+/-'.]
  • Slight
    [Reflex present but less than normal amplitude, or only seen with reinforcement. May be recorded as '+' or '1+'.]

    [Reflex present at normal amplitude. May be recorded as '++' or '2+'.]
  • Brisk
    [Reflex present at greater than normal amplitude. May be recorded as '+++' or '3+'.]
  • Non-sustained clonus
    [Reflex is repeating but not sustained. May be recorded as '++++' or '4+'.]
  • Sustained clonus
    [Reflex is repeating and sustained. May be recorded as '+++++' or '5+'.]
With recruitment?
0..1 DV_BOOLEAN Record as true if muscle recruitment was used to accentuate the response.
