Produktbeschreibung
Upper limb patients in an occupational context represent a diagnostic challenge and are often labeled "non-specific". The presented studies of upper limb pain patients in occupational medicine, in general practice, and among computer operators have shown frequent patterns of selective weakness, adverse sensation, and mechanical allodynia of nerve trunks.

These studies show the importance of a thorough physical neurological examination in upper limb patients, who may otherwise risk an erroneous diagnosis.
