ممرض يطلب من المريض مد ذراعيه للأمام وكفاه للأعلى وعيناه مغمضتان، فبدأت الذراع اليسرى تنزل وتدور للداخل. ماذا يدل؟

The nurse asks a client to hold both arms out, palms up, eyes closed, and the left arm drifts down and pronates. What does this indicate?

1. Loss of pain sensation only
2. Subtle left-sided weakness (pronator drift)
3. Only that the client is tired, with no meaning
4. A balance problem from the inner ear

Answer: B) Subtle left-sided weakness (pronator drift). Downward drift with pronation is a sensitive sign of mild motor weakness from a central lesion in the opposite hemisphere, used in stroke assessment.
