Additional Documentation on This Product

More Information

Percussion hammers are used to stimulate nerve responses during general examinations, typically to test deep tendon reflexes and detect potential abnormalities in the nervous systems. The knee-jerk response can help physicians discover issues in mono-synaptic responses and also indicate potential cerebellar disease. The tool is used by practices across the board and is one of the most commonly recognized medical devices by patients.

The Babinski percussion hammer specifically uses a small metal disk lined with a plastic or rubber bumper attached to a metal handle. Baseline Babinski percussion hammers come in two different handle lengths to suit personal preference and can be latex-free to suit latex-sensitive patients.

These hammers can also be used for chest percussion therapies associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cystic fibrosis to help clear patient airways and ease the breathing process. Patients with these and other conditions often will be directed by physicians to perform chest percussions at home to assist in the breaking up of mucus in the lungs, allowing it to be easily coughed up. The Baseline Babinski percussion hammer is a convenient, portable size so patients can take it with them wherever they go.
