and ofcourse
dont forget to compare both sides
so start distal same leg
then do same on contralateral side
then move proximally on one leg
then do same on contralateral leg
etc.
honestly, I don't think there will be time to do such specific test. I would focus on something else. I already did my test, and I thought I was pretty swift but somehow I barely made it out with a minute to spare...
Only if you think there is something wrong with the PT... like DM, or constant falling. After checking position, just put the hammer over the dorsal part of the foot and ask: what to do feel?
That's it... + or - vibration on your note
