Upper Quarter Screen Template

The document outlines screening templates for the upper and lower quarters. The upper quarter template includes initial observations of posture, range of motion testing for the cervical spine and shoulders, manual muscle testing of cervical and shoulder muscles, and assessment of reflexes and sensation in the upper extremities. The lower quarter template similarly outlines initial observations, range of motion testing for the thoracolumbar spine, manual muscle testing of hip and leg muscles, reflex and sensation assessment of the lower extremities. Both templates provide details on assessing specific muscle functions and dermatome levels.
