How is finger ROM measured

4. temperature (test tubes or thermal kit)
5. stereognosis
how to test light touch
touch with cotton swab. person responds "yes" when touched

score:
+ = intact
- = impaired
0 = absent
how to test touch localization

responds "yes" when touched and points to area

score +, -, or 0

person responds "sharp" or "dull"

scoring: S+, D+, S, D, S-, D-
how to test temperature
