deep tendon reflexes 1+ on both upper limbs Explanation: Note that "schwach" (weak) does not necessarily mean diminished or abnormal. In particular, bilaterally 'weak' reflexes often do not indicate any pathology. NB: I have not been able to find a similar descriptive term in English native texts; it seems that the number grades (1+ to 5+) are preferred over words. See, for example https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK396/ . |

diminished monosynaptic brachial reflex, both sides Explanation: https://www.translatorscafe.com/tcterms/DE/question.aspx?id=... Reflexe - Reflexes - mittellebhaft (normal) – normal - lebhaft – brisk - gesteigert – exaggerated, hyperactive - vermindert, schwach auslösbar – diminished - fehlend – absent https://sites.google.com/site/caduceusnewsletter/glossaries/... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs (2020-01-19 08:32:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I guess in this case we could say "both sides" or even "both arms", if you'd prefer it that way...? |
