Tendon reflex
Tendon reflex (or T-reflex) may refer to:
*A stretch reflex, when the stretch is created by a blow upon a muscle tendon. This is the usual definition of the term. 〔(TheFreeDictionary > tendon reflex ) Citing: Dorland's Medical Dictionary for Health Consumers. 2007〕〔(dictionary.com > tendon reflex ) Citing: Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary, 2007 and The American Heritage Stedman's Medical Dictionary 2002 〕 A common example is the standard knee-jerk response when visiting the doctor. 〔(wustl.edu > tendon reflex ) Citing: wustl.edu. REFLEXES: Tendon & Other. 2008.〕 Deep tendon reflex also usually refers to this sense. A deep tendon reflex is often associated with muscle stretching. 〔(TheFreeDictionary.com > deep tendon reflex ) Citing: The American Heritage Medical Dictionary, 2007 and Mosby's Medical Dictionary, 8th edition, 2009〕 Tendon reflex tests are used to determine the integrity of the spinal cord and peripheral nervous system, and they can be used to detect the presence of a neuromuscular disease. 〔(eNotes > tendon reflex ) Citing: Encyclopedia of Nursing and Allied Health. 2002〕
*The Golgi tendon reflex, motivated by that the sensory receptors for this reflex are anatomically located in the tendon, while the sensory receptors for the stretch reflex are actually inside the proper muscle.
==Testing==
To test the reflex, tap on the tendon. In a healthy individual the intensity on both sides is equal. This means that the connections between the spinal cord and the muscles are undamaged.
