peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1Nervendehnungszeichen, Nervendehnungsschmerz Explanation: Based on your scarce context, it is hard to say which sign(s) this doctor specifically is refering to (Kernig, Brudzinski, Lhermitte,...). The more general statement "kein Nervendehnungsschmerz" may be a workaround. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 hrs (2017-12-10 11:23:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- OK, based on this added context a general term would seem the best choice for me. With a patient suffering from cervical as well as lumbar spine disease, any of the common nerve stretch tests may and should be tested during physical examination. For a choice, see http://www.lexikon-orthopaedie.com/pdx.pl?dv=0&id=02184 "Straight leg raising test was 90 degrees bilaterally with negative nerve stretch test" may then be read as "The patient allows his legs to be raised to 90° *and does not feel pain with this maneuvre*" (nerve stretch test = Lasegue). Or, "Lasegue test was negative, *and other nerve stretch tests as well*" (nerve stretch test = any of the existing tests for cervical or lumbar spinal root irritation: umgekehrter Lasegue, Kernig, Brudzinski, Lhermitte). |

Umgekehrter Lasègue-Test15:25 9 Dec Click here to delete your post Explanation: Sounds like it. E.g. Wikipedia ("Als umgekehrtes Lasègue-Zeichen (umgekehrter Lasègue) wird die Schmerzauslösung mit Flexion im Kniegelenk bei gestrecktem Hüftgelenk (der Patient liegt flach auf dem Bauch) als Dehnungszeichen des N. femoralis (Kompression der Nervenwurzeln L3/L4) bezeichnet.") https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasègue-Zeichen -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 6 hrs (2017-12-10 19:57:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Should be only "Umgekehrter Lasègue-Test". But this was copied from the discussion entry... https://amboss.miamed.de/wissen/Bandscheibenprolaps https://befunddolmetscher.de/ct/wirbelsaeule/813/Lasègue-Zeichen |
