| Concept | Muscle tone finding |
| Description | Findings observed during the physical examination of tone in a limb. |
| Use | Use to record the observed findings during the physical examination of tone in a limb. This archetype has been specifically designed to be used in the 'Examination detail' SLOT within the OBSERVATION.exam or the CLUSTER.exam-nervous_system archetype. It can also be nested within any other relevant OBSERVATION or Physical examination-related family of CLUSTER archetypes, where clinically appropriate. In clinical scenarios requiring the documentation of more than one deep tendon reflex response, use a separate instance of this archetype for each reflex and body side. |
| Purpose | To record the findings observed during the physical examination of tone in a limb. |
