The Plate Tapping Test is a clinical examination technique used to assess deep tendon reflexes, particularly the patellar reflex.
The purpose of the Plate Tapping Test is to evaluate the integrity of the nervous system, specifically the L3 and L4 nerve roots.
To perform the Plate Tapping Test, the examiner uses a reflex hammer to tap the patellar tendon, and the resulting reflexive contraction of the quadriceps muscle is observed.
