Which of the following monofilament grades indicates that only protective sensation is intact? 1. 3.61 2. 4.37 3. 5.07 4. 6.65Answer - 3. 5.07 The 5.07 monofilament supplies the least amount of force that can be sensed by patients with only protective sensation intact. Ability to sense only the 6.65 monofilament indicates a loss of protective sensation. Ability to sense the 3.61 and 4.37 monofilaments indicates fully normal sensation. Which of the following afferent fiber types...
