Love the videos guys, very appreciative for your work. Just wanted to note that for C8 - unless it's partly inaudible or I'm mishearing it - I think the C8 myotome for FPB is resisting thumb 'ABduction' (I feel like I am hearing thumb ADDuction).

Thanks TW, appreciate it and thank you for following us! It's ABDuction. We are currently in the process of adding English subtitles to all of our videos. so these problems should soon be resolved!

Since the biceps are innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve which comes from C4, 5, 6, why does assessing the bicep assess C6. Wouldn't it also assess C4, and C5?

Is there a difference in testing myotomes vs a manual muscle test? If so, is the difference that MMT is a break test and myotome is a resisted isometric?

@Physiotutors 6 жыл бұрын

MMT can be both make (just isometrics) and break (break the resistance). With myotome testing your more interested in a particular muscle.

@roma2596 5 жыл бұрын

Physiotutors but for a particular muscle we can even do individual muscle testing right then why myotome

Two different objectives: MMT: evaluate the strength of a particular muscle Myotome: Investigate whether or not a certain nerve root shows signs of radiculopathy

What the difference between myotomes testing and manual muscle testing ?

@Physiotutors 4 жыл бұрын

Myotome testing is done with the goal of determining muscle weakness in regards to radiculopathy, manual muscle testing is not specific to the muscles related to specific nerve roots.

@@Physiotutors hello physiotutors , How to differentiate if it is a local ,(muscle issue ) or a radiculopathy issue ? , For ex if a patient is not able to abduct their arm , should it be due to rc / delt weakness or c4 c5 disc derangement?

@Physiotutors 3 жыл бұрын

Radiculopathy will often show with tingling, burning quality, loss of sensation, diminished reflexes, aggravation in 3d extension, neck pain etc. Deltoid muscles don't just become weak. In case if subacromial pain syndrome we'd expect shoulder pain, a painful arc, etc

@Physiotutors 4 жыл бұрын

Nope, not wrong. What's your source? There are different text books that show different myotomes for the respective levels. Realize that no muscle is solely innervated by one spinal segment.

@berkoktar7949 4 жыл бұрын

@@Physiotutors I'm a medical student and this is not my professors taught me. I know that every muscle is innervated from 2 segments but this not the examination in our literature. c5 is Biceps brachii, c6 is extensor carpi radialis, c7 is Triceps brachii, c8 is flexor digitorum profundus and t1 is abduktor digiti minimi.

@physicaltherapymnemonics 2 жыл бұрын

In testing the myotomes using the ASIA Scale, C5 is elbow flexors so the muscle tested is biceps. But myotomes per se, "consists of all the muscles innervated by a specific nerve root level." In the case of C5, you have deltoids, biceps. Shoulder abduction which is the action of the deltoid is the movement with the strongest association to the C5 myotome (though I can't find a primary source for this, I just read it on a website). That's why in this video, C5 is deltoid.
