Nursing Practice Manual Muscle Strength Test (MMT) | 0 to 5 Evaluation Criteria and Measurement Procedures

In MMT, it is easy to get lost in that it does not suddenly add resistance, but checks in order whether it can move against gravity and whether there is pain or compensatory movement.

In the article, we organized the evaluation criteria of MMT 0 to 5, how to apply limb position and resistance at the time of measurement, confirmation of left-right difference, pain, compensatory exercise, and the viewpoint of considering the influence on daily life from the measurement results.

Let's save it so that we can review it before practice or when creating records.

... Read more徒手筋力テスト(MMT)は、筋力を客観的に評価できる重要な手技ですが、最初の段階でいきなり強い抵抗を加えるのは避け、重力に抗して動かせるかどうかや、痛みや代償運動の有無を慎重に観察することが大切です。私自身の看護実習経験でも、患者さんの状態を正しく把握するために測定肢位を正確に選び、体幹や他関節の代償運動を見逃さないよう細心の注意を払いました。こういった観察は評価の信頼性を高めるだけでなく、患者さんへの負担を減らし、安全な評価実施にもつながりました。 また、MMTの評価は単に筋力の数値だけでなく、左右差や痛みの有無、関節可動域の制限が筋力低下として反映されていないかを見極めることが重要です。実際にMMT値が同じであっても、痛みがある場合は筋力を十分に発揮できないこともあります。そうした情報を総合的に判断することで、日常生活動作への影響をより正確に予測できます。例えば、肘関節屈曲でのMMT4の評価があれば、強い抵抗には耐えられないものの基本的な動作は可能であることを意味し、看護ケアの中で無理のない動作支援計画を立てやすくなります。 さらに、実習中に記録作成を行う際は、測定肢位や抵抗のかけ方、痛みや代償運動の状況など詳細を記述しておくことで、経過観察やチーム内での情報共有に役立ちました。私も、同じ肢位・測定方法で定期的に評価し、患者さんの回復状況や退院後の生活支援に結びつけられた経験があります。こうしたフィジカルアセスメントの習熟は、看護実習での自信向上にもつながり、実践力を磨く基盤になると実感しています。 最後に、徒手筋力テストは患者さんの身体状況を総合的に捉えるための一助です。痛みや運動制限がある場合は無理に抵抗を加えず、患者さんの安全を最優先しながら、日常生活動作の支援へ活かす視点を忘れないことが看護師としての質を高めるポイントです。
