Froment sign- MedGen UID:
- 713325
- •Concept ID:
- C1290999
- •
- Sign or Symptom
An abnormal result of a physical examination of the the hand that tests for palsy of the ulnar nerve. This nerve innervates the adductor pollicis and interossei muscles and thereby enables adduction of the thumb and extension of the interphalangeal joint. An abnormal result consists in reduced functionality and muscular weakness in the pinch grip between the thumb and index finger of the affected hand as the patient attempts to pinch a piece of paper that the examiner tries to pull away. The flexor pollicis longus muscle tries to compensate for the weakness by flexing the tip of the thumb at the interphalangeal joint.
Sensory axonal neuropathy- MedGen UID:

- •Concept ID:
- C1842587
- •
- Finding
An axonal neuropathy of peripheral sensory nerves.
Postural instability- MedGen UID:
- 334529
- •Concept ID:
- C1843921
- •
- Finding
A tendency to fall or the inability to keep oneself from falling; imbalance. The retropulsion test is widely regarded as the gold standard to evaluate postural instability, Use of the retropulsion test includes a rapid balance perturbation in the backward direction, and the number of balance correcting steps (or total absence thereof) is used to rate the degree of postural instability. Healthy subjects correct such perturbations with either one or two large steps, or without taking any steps, hinging rapidly at the hips while swinging the arms forward as a counterweight. In patients with balance impairment, balance correcting steps are often too small, forcing patients to take more than two steps. Taking three or more steps is generally considered to be abnormal, and taking more than five steps is regarded as being clearly abnormal. Markedly affected patients continue to step backward without ever regaining their balance and must be caught by the examiner (this would be called true retropulsion). Even more severely affected patients fail to correct entirely, and fall backward like a pushed toy soldier, without taking any corrective steps.

- 811461
- •Concept ID:

- 57469
- •Concept ID:
- C0151564
- •
- Sign or Symptom
