The reflex exam is fundamental to the neurological exam and important to locating upper versus lower motor neuron lesions. There are five deep tendon reflexes and a number of superficial and visceral reflexes covered here.
In this patient, the severity of her reflex responses (3-4+, or even clonus) will help Because the risk of eclampsia continues after delivery, MgSO4 is frequently edema, and trace edema of her hands and face.

See in patients with cerebral palsy, stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS), with spinal cord lesions and hepat Re : checking for clonus Post by alexa5 » Mon Sep 30, 638622 1:20 am I was only checked for this in the hospital, never at an OB appt, but that could also be because I didn't have full indicators of pre-e until I presented to L&D. Cortical reflex myoclonus originates in the cerebral cortex—the outer layer of the brain that is largely responsible for information processing. In this type of myoclonus, jerks usually involve only a few muscles in one part of the body, but jerks involving many muscles also may occur. Clonus is rapidly alternating involuntary contraction and relaxation of skeletal muscle. Using a reflex hammer deep tendon reflex (DTR) response is graded on a scale from 0 to 4+: In a normal person, when a muscle tendon is tapped briskly, the muscle immediately contracts due to a two-neuron reflex arc involving the spinal or brainstem segment that innervates the muscle.

Hyperreflexia is defined as overactive or overresponsive reflexes. Examples of this can include twitching or spastic tendencies, which are indicative of upper motor neuron disease as well as the lessening or loss of control ordinarily exerted by higher brain centers of lower neural pathways (disinhibition).
He was rocking on all fours at 5 1/2 months, crawling by 6, pulling to stand and cruising by 6 1/2 and now at 8 months, he often will pull himself up and then let go and free stand. In hyper-reflexia, stimulation of one muscle may produce movements elsewhere, e.g. antagonists or more distal muscles.
Assume that the reflexes and clonus are the same for both legs and feet. 1. Abnormal hyper-reflexes (4+ reflexes, and 3 beats clonus) 2. Normal reflexes (2+ reflexes, and 0 beats clonus) 3. Abnormal hypo-reflexes (1+ reflexes, and 0 beats clonus) You have washed your hands and explained the procedure to your client. You have 10
This gentleman has questionable cervical cord compression.
Normal reflexes (2+ reflexes, and 0 beats clonus) 3. Abnormal hypo-reflexes (1+ reflexes, and 0 beats clonus) You have washed your hands and explained the procedure to your client. You have 10 minutes to complete this station. This video is an example of the abnormal, rhythmic reflex known as clonus.

With Preeclampsia it is caused by central nervous system involvement (as is hyperreflexia). Clonus is a rhythmic, oscillating, stretch reflex. The cause of the oscillations are related to lesions in upper motor neurons and is generally accompanied by hyperreflexia.
Therefore, clonus is used as part of the neurological physical exam to assess the status of a patient’s nervous system.
