  1. Purpose and Function:

    • The Percussion Hammer is a handheld medical tool designed for eliciting specific responses from the body through controlled tapping or striking.
    • Its primary application is in neurological examinations, where it plays a crucial role in assessing reflexes.
  2. Reflex Testing:

    • Medical practitioners use the percussion hammer to test deep tendon reflexes.
    • The most well-known reflex test is the patellar reflex, where the hammer strikes the patellar tendon just below the kneecap.
    • By observing the body’s response, doctors can detect abnormalities in the central or peripheral nervous system.
