About this document
Principles of Manual Muscle Testing by Cams Saver is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Manual muscle testing (MMT) is used to objectively assess muscle strength. It involves applying resistance against active muscle contraction throughout the range of motion. MMT grades strength on a scale of 0 to 5 based on the amount of resistance the patient can overcome. Proper patient positioning, clear instruction, and stabilization of surrounding muscles are important for accurate grading. MMT provides baseline strength measurements and identifies weak muscles to guide physical therapy treatment.
