  1. 1Pain/paraesthesia affecting only the legs is likely to have a [blank_start]lumbar[blank_end] origin
    Pain/paraesthesia affecting only the arms is likely to have a [blank_start]cervical[blank_end] origin
    1. Alumbar
    2. Bcervical
    3. Cthoracic
    4. Dcervical
    5. Elumbar
    6. Fthoracic
  2. 2How are reflexes affected by Upper & Lower Motor Neuron Lesions?
    Upper Motor Neuron Lesions cause [blank_start]brisk[blank_end] reflexes
    Lower Motor Neuron Lesions cause [blank_start]decreased or absent[blank_end] reflexes
    1. Adecreased or absent
    2. Bbrisk
    3. Cbrisk
    4. Ddecreased or absent
  3. 3Clonus is a series of involuntary rhythmic muscle contractions and relaxations. In which type of motor neuron lesions are these present?
    1. AUpper Motor Neuron Lesions
    2. BLower Motor Neuron Lesions
  4. 4Upper Motor Neuron Lesions cause decreased tone
    Lower Motor Neuron Lesions cause increased tone
    1. ARichtig
    2. BFalsch
  5. 5[blank_start]Radiculopathy[blank_end] = Compression, or 'pinching', of the nerve as it leaves the spinal cord
    [blank_start]Myelopathy[blank_end] = Compression of the spinal cord itself
    1. ARadiculopathy
    2. BMyelopathy
  6. 6Back pain in the [blank_start]Thoracic[blank_end] area is extremely rare as it is supported by the [blank_start]ribcage[blank_end]. Therefore, pain in this area is a red flag as it tends to indicate myelopathy.
    1. AThoracic
    2. BCervical
    3. CLumbar
    4. Dribcage
    5. Esacrum
    6. Fclavicles
  7. 7Lumbar [blank_start]spinal stenosis[blank_end] tends to cause claudication which is exacerbated by [blank_start]mobilisation[blank_end] and relieved by [blank_start]bending forwards/walking uphill[blank_end]. Patients with neurogenic claudication tend to feel pain/paraesthesia down the [blank_start]back of their thighs[blank_end].
    1. Aspinal stenosis
    2. Bankylosing spondylitis
    3. Cdisc herniation
    4. Dmobilisation
    5. Erest
    6. Fbending forwards/walking uphill
    7. Gensuring good posture/walking downhill
    8. Hbending backwards/walking downhill
    9. Iback of their thighs
    10. Jback of their calves
  8. 8The presence or absence of which cardiovascular features of the body helps to differentiate neurogenic claudication from vascular claudication?

    The presence or absence of the [blank_start]Peripheral pulses[blank_end]
    1. APeripheral pulses
  9. 9A woman is brought into A&E by her husband complaining of shooting pains in her back and both of her legs. Upon further questioning she admits to being incontinent of urine for the past half day and has had a feeling of numbness between the legs when sitting on the toilet.

    This woman likely has [blank_start]Cauda Equina[blank_end] Syndrome
    This condition warrants an emergency [blank_start]MRI[blank_end] scan
    1. ACauda Equina
    2. BMRI
  10. 10What are the 4 main red flags for Cauda Equina Syndrome?
    1. ASaddle anaesthesia
    2. BBilateral leg pain
    3. CLoss of bowel/bladder function
    4. DSevere lumbosacral back pain
    5. ELoss of reflexes
    6. FErectile dysfunction
    7. GNumbness of the outer thighs
    8. HSevere mid-thoracic back pain
