National Hospital Percussion Hammer 60mm 35cm

Clinical Application

Designed for clinical neurologic assessment, this percussion hammer is used to elicit deep tendon and superficial reflexes as part of preoperative baseline examinations, postoperative neurologic checks, and routine perioperative screening. The instrument aids in detection of hypo- or hyperreflexia, peripheral neuropathy, radiculopathy, and changes in central nervous system motor pathways, supporting decision-making for anesthesia teams and surgical providers.

Design & Configuration

The 60 mm diameter striking head provides a broad, uniform contact surface to deliver a reproducible tap while minimizing point pressure — useful for consistent elicitation of tendon responses across a range of patient body habitus. The 35 cm overall length gives clinicians extended reach and leverage for controlled swings and one-handed use, improving ergonomics during bedside or operating-room assessments. The single-headed configuration focuses delivered energy into a predictable contact area for repeatable clinical testing.
