Motor Skills Testing

• abil — The quality of an individual to demonstrate motor dexterity, fine coordination, and speed in executing complex physical or cognitive tasks. In neurological semiology and occupational medicine, the term evaluates the integrity of the pyramidal and extrapyramidal tracts; an 'able' or 'skilful' patient presents intact reflexes, preserved praxia (the ability to execute coordinated intentional movements), and the absence of intentional tremor or ataxia.
