Question
which findings indicate peripheral nerve rather than central lesions? clonus, spastic gait babinski sign, hypertonia hyporeflexia, weakness hyperreflexia, spasticity view hint for question 38
Brief Explanations
Central nervous system lesions typically cause upper motor neuron signs like clonus, spastic gait, Babinski sign, hypertonia, hyperreflexia, and spasticity. Peripheral nerve lesions result in lower motor neuron signs, including hyporeflexia and weakness, as they affect the motor neurons or axons outside the brain and spinal cord.
