Scratch Collapse Test: a new clinical test for peripheral nerve compression.
A 70-year-old woman presented left hand neuropathic pain and nocturnal paresthetic brachialgia. The neurological examination was unremarkable except for positive Scratch Collapse Test (SCT) suggesting left Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) (Figure). Subsequent electromyographic evaluation was consistent with left CTS. The SCT is a new clinical maneuver for peripheral nerve compression diagnosis that...
متن کاملScratch Collapse Test Localizes Osborne's Band as the Point of Maximal Nerve Compression in Cubital Tunnel Syndrome.
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the utility of the scratch collapse test (SCT) in localizing the point of maximal compression in cubital tunnel syndrome. From January 1, 2004 to December 1, 2005, 64 adult patients with cubital tunnel syndrome were evaluated by a single surgeon. Cubital tunnel syndrome was diagnosed based upon symptoms of numbness, tingling, and/or pain in the ulna...
متن کاملSurface Potentials and Peripheral Nerve Injury: A Clinical Test *
In a recent preliminary note2 concerning electrical correlates of peripheral nerve injury, it was pointed out that the condition of peripheral nerves is reflected in the changing surface potential differences. The following discussion will briefly describe certain experiments which led to this observation and to the clinical application of the method in cases where there is any question of peri...
متن کاملA New Test Data Compression for Low Power Test
This paper proposes a new test data compression method for low power testing. To improve compression ratio, the proposed scheme uses the modified input reduction and novel techniques, a new scan flip-flop reordering algorithm and a newly proposed one block compression. The proposed method leads to better compression ratio with lower hardware overhead and lower power consumption than previous wo...
متن کاملA New Test Compression Scheme
Generalized Modified Positional Syndrome (GMPS), of order p, a new compaction scheme for test output data is presented. The order p determines the alising probability and the amount of hardware overhead required to implement the scheme. GMPS of order two gives an aliasing probability about an order of magnitude lower than the best scheme reported in literature with minimal extra hardware. A har...
