The percussion hammers are used for testing the reflexes of the joints and organs like the lungs, the<br />
heart or the stomach. With the hammer you hit the part of the body where you want to do the<br />
examination. From the resonance of the different tones your diagnosis is supported.<br />

The plessimeter is a helping instrument that is used in the diagnostic. The echo caused by the percussion<br />
hammer will be enforced. This will be helpful in hearing and distinguishing the different tones. It consists<br />
of a thin, spatula-shaped plate, which has to be pressed tightly onto the part of the body which will be<br />
examined. The advantage of the plessimeter is that thegenerated echo will be louder compared to the<br />
direct percussion and the fingers of the operator will be preserved.<br />
