The moving two-point discrimination test specifically evaluates the quickly adapting fiber-receptor system, distinct from the slowly adapting system assessed by the Weber (static) two-point discrimination test.
Testing was performed on 39 control hands and 63 hands from patients with nerve injuries, including nerve compression syndromes and nerve lacerations.
The test was found to be simple and quick to perform in a clinical setting.
It functioned as a valid diagnostic tool for both nerve compression syndromes and nerve lacerations.
The test also served as an accurate prognostic indicator and monitoring tool during sensory reeducation following nerve repair.
