why do we evaluate sensory loss | safety issues | patient education | diagnostic and prognostic- ppl present weird symptoms and need to figure out what senses were lost | feasability of sensory retraining and to figure out when its time for re education ( when nerve regrows) | baseline for progress and documentation for recovery | to alert to use of splints ( pressure points/ heat)

Modalities | light touch- qtip/ monofilament/ erasure | Deep pressure- needed for adls) ( press until skin is blanched)( can have deep pressure and not light touch) | Pain ( sharp vs dull) need for protection - safety pin and paper clip | temperature cold ( 40-45) hot ( 120) | proprioception/ kinesthesia - move their body and they have to repeat or copy you | two ppoint discrimination /// and stereognosis- point to picture of the object they are holding
