Description

Among several manual examinations in cervical syndrome, there is a typical test called ‘Allen Test’ connected with hypertonus in the scalene muscles. We evaluated the clinical effectiveness of this test in cervical syndrome.<br>Both the positive group in the Allen test and the healthy group were examined with the plethysmogramm at the finger tips. As a result, in comparison with the healthy group, the positive group showed a low pulse wave. As their syndrome was improved clinically, their pulse wave heights were also improved.<br>It was thought that the Allen test was valuable to both the clinical test in cervical syndrome and the decisive test in a recovery from this syndrome.
