A positive Spurling's sign is when the pain arising in the neck radiates in the direction of the corresponding dermatome ipsilaterally. [1] It is a type of cervical compression test. Patients with a positive Spurling's sign can present with a variety of symptoms, including pain, numbness and weakness.
Spurling's test: Roy Glenwood Spurling: neurology: cervical radiculopathy: Spurling's manoeuvre and sign at Whonamedit? axial compression and rotation of cervical spine to the side of symptoms causes pain Stellwag's sign: Karl Stellwag von Carion: endocrinology: thyrotoxicosis: infrequent and/or incomplete blinking, accompanied by Dalrymple's ...
In the case of cervical radiculopathy , Spurling's test may elicit or reproduce symptoms radiating down the arm. Similarly, in the case of lumbosacral radiculopathy, a straight leg raise maneuver or a femoral nerve stretch test may demonstrate radiculopathic symptoms down the leg. [3]
Compression test for steel drum. The container compression test measures the compressive strength of packages such as boxes, drums, and cans. It usually provides a plot of deformation vs compressive force. It is commonly used to evaluate shipping containers made of corrugated fiberboard as well as wooden boxes and crates.
In mechanics, compressive strength (or compression strength) is the capacity of a material or structure to withstand loads tending to reduce size (compression). It is opposed to tensile strength which withstands loads tending to elongate, resisting tension (being pulled apart).
Compression test on a universal testing machine. Compression of solids has many implications in materials science, physics and structural engineering, for compression yields noticeable amounts of stress and tension. By inducing compression, mechanical properties such as compressive strength or modulus of elasticity, can be measured. [5]
Spurling would rather let others call what Lex has cookin’ a dynasty. “We’re focused on one year at a time,” he said. “It doesn’t matter what happened last year or the last six years.
Compression set A is defined as the percentage of original specimen thickness after the specimen has been left in normal (uncompressed) conditions for 30 minutes. C A, the compression set A is given by C A = [(t o - t i) / t o] * 100 where t o is the original specimen thickness and t i is the specimen thickness after testing. [2]
