Description
Powerpoint Presentation: Manual Muscle Testing (MMT)
- MMT is the most vital part of motor assessment Performa in medical examination.
- MMT is a procedure for the evaluation of the strength and individual muscle or muscle group based upon the effective performance of a movement in relation to the forces of gravity or manual resistance through the available ROM.
- i.e. how efficiently a muscle is working or muscles strength/power assessment using manual techniques.
Why MMT is performed?
- Is a particular muscle normal?
- Is it weak? (how much weak)
- Is it strong enough? (how much strong)
- weak on both the sides(bilaterally symmetrical)?
- Is it weak only on one side(unilateral)?
- proximal muscles are weaker than the distal one?
- distal muscles are weaker than the proximal one?
- there any particular pattern of muscle weakness?
