The Brachial Plexus Tension or Elvey Test, also known as Upper Limb Tension Tests, [1] are designed to put stress on neurological structures of upper limb by elongating them. These tests were first described by Elvey [2] and hence also known …

2023年10月22日 · This document describes three upper limb tension tests (ULTT1, ULTT2, ULTT3) used to assess the cervical spine and brachial plexus. ULTT1 involves abducting, supinating, and laterally rotating the shoulder while extending the elbow and wrist. ULTT2 adds shoulder depression while extending the elbow and laterally rotating the arm.

2013年12月4日 · It provides the patient position, positive sign, clinical significance, and procedure for each test. Some of the tests described include Spurling's test and Jackson's test for the cervical spine, load and shift test and apprehension test for the shoulder, and supraspinatus test and drop arm test to assess the rotator cuff.

2024年7月26日 · Introduction Upper limb tension test (ULTT), assesses the Peripheral nerve entrapment of the upper limb The test can be used for both therapeutic and diagnostic purpose

2018年4月25日 · 【上肢张力试验（ULTT）】，又叫臂丛张力试验或Elvey试验。ULTT相当于是腰椎检查时的直腿抬高试验和直腿抬高加强试验。目的是对上肢的神经结构施加压力，通过牵拉神经去诱发出上肢的放射症状，检测臂丛神经的张力。 *操作步骤. 起始位置：

2014年9月20日 · Upper limb tension test • Indications: • ULTT is recommended test for all patients with symptoms in the arm, head, neck and thoracic spine. Different test is provided to test each nerve (for example median nerve test, radial nerve test).

These tests were first described by Elvey and hence also known as Elvey tests, but most commonly called ULTT. The shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist and fingers are kept in specific position to put stress on particular nerves (nerve bias), [3] and a further modification in position of each joint is done as "sensitiser".

Upper limb tension tests (ULTT), also called upper limb neurodynamic tests (ULNT), are a commonly used neurodynamic technique by clinicians to evaluate nerve gliding and neural tension in patients. 1 Neurodynamic tests aim to investigate if a peripheral nerve is contributing to the patients’ pain, resulting in peripheral neuropathic pain, by ...

2023年3月12日 · ULTTs goal is to elicit the symptoms of a patient. It is accomplished by maintaining specific positions for the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist, as well as fingers to place stress on the particular nerve (nerve bias). Alterations to the position of each joint may also be used as a “sensitizer” to the particular nerves.
