Overview
The patient‘s motor functions are projected into many medical disciplines. The task of the medical examiner is to evaluate the anamnesis, clinical findings, results of imaging examinations and other professional documents. The medical examiner shall express his/her expert opinion unambiguously, convincingly and verifiably in the medical assessment. We summarize the basic parameters of motor assessment, present examples of muscle tests and present a complicated and ambiguous case study, which demonstrates the complexity of assessment activities.
Keywords:
function – assessment point of view – motor skills – objectification of health condition – muscle test
