Heel-to-Shin Test | Neurological Physical Assessment Tutorial

Описание: In this video, Nursing School Explained demonstrates the heel-to-shin test, a key component of a neurological physical assessment. Learn how to properly guide patients to:
*Perform the heel-to-shin maneuver for both sides, observing coordination and smoothness.
*Assess cerebellar function and lower extremity motor control.
*Identify potential neurological abnormalities such as ataxia or impaired proprioception.

This tutorial is perfect for nursing students, medical students, and healthcare professionals looking to improve their neurological assessment skills in clinical or simulation settings.
