In the study, Patellar T Reflex has been evaluated with tapping force measurement and Deep Tendon Reflex grading. Tapping force is measured with an electronic tendon hammer which is designed by us also can be used as a trigger system for determination of patellar T response. System was tested in Akdeniz University Medicine Faculty Neurology Department EMG Laboratory. In the study at least ten trace were obtained from 10 subjects and a total of 100 traces evaluations were performed. The experiment group consisted of people with no neurological disorders. The expected impact of the study is presenting the relationship between tendon reflexes that trigged with applied force to the tendon, deep tendon reflex grading and EMG response as quantitative rating. This led to further understanding of the important role that the reflex behavior in the neurological examination. Also, other departments that can use that study explained at results section.
