Babinsky percussion hammer 25cm

Clinical Application

Designed for clinical neurological assessment, this percussion hammer is used to elicit deep tendon reflexes (for example, patellar and Achilles), upper-extremity reflexes (biceps, triceps), and plantar responses including testing for the Babinski sign. Its length and balance make it suitable for use in preoperative neuromuscular examinations, intraoperative neurology consultations, clinic visits, and bedside assessments in hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers.

Design & Configuration

The 25 cm overall length provides comfortable reach and control for a range of patients and exam positions. The metal handle offers a secure grip and a consistent swing, allowing practitioners to deliver a reproducible impulse. The molded rubber striking surface is sized and weighted to convert that controlled motion into the blunt percussive contact required to elicit tendon and plantar reflexes without producing sharp pain.
