Hi,

Quick question: aside from the Matheson Bench and Step Test, what other equipment is available that use MTMs? Specifically, is there a lifting test that uses MTMs?

Thanks!

Neil,

Another thought - Although there are not any MTM based tests for lifting there are norm based criteria for the PILE and Isoinertial Snook lifting protocols.

Hello Neil!

Our clinical advisor said:

I don't think there MTM ratings for any lifting evaluations - that does not seem to be very practical. Other tests that have MTM values inclue the Valpar 9 (in fact, many of the Valpar products have MTM ratings), and the Matheson Dexterity Panel System has MTM values. Hope this helps.

If you have any further questions, let me know.

Regards,

Jenn
