Neurological Examination

A neurological examination is a structured clinical assessment used to evaluate the
function of the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral
nervous system (nerves and muscles). It helps detect abnormalities affecting
movement, sensation, cognition, coordination, reflexes, and autonomic function.

It is essential in diagnosing conditions such as stroke, epilepsy, meningitis, brain tumors,
multiple sclerosis, neuropathies, and spinal cord injuries.



Purpose of Neurological Examination

The main goals are to:

• Assess brain function (cognition, consciousness)

• Evaluate cranial nerve integrity

• Test motor and sensory function

• Assess reflexes and coordination

• Identify neurological deficits
