Handcrafted Since 1971 | Lifetime Warranty | Latex Free The MDF Tromner Hammer (aka Tromner or Troemner) is a versatile 3-in-1 dual mallet-type reflex hammer designed for eliciting myotatic and cutaneous responses in adult and pediatric patients. This popular reflex hammer was invented by Ernst L.O. Trmner, MD, a director of the Neurological Hospital at St. Georg and professor at the University of Hamburg. Head: The balance-weighted stainless-steel head is outfitted with large and small mallets constructed of soft TPR for precise percussions. Handle: The weighted stainless-steel handle is precisely balanced for increased control of force for percussion. The tip at the base of the handle elicits superficial or cutaneous responses, including plantar and abdominal reflexes.

Perfectly designed reflex hammer with bonus tools.
I am a GP and this is the most comfortable tendon hammer I have used. As with any change in equipment it takes a bit of practice (on your relatives of course). The rubber is soft and comfortable. The brush that unscrews from the sharp point is a bonus. The price is great too. Fits nicely in my bag as shorter than the classic long thin plastic one with a circular head.

Too short, rigid and heavy.
Too short and heavy to get a good reflex. Actually hurts when using it and I got a bruise from practising. My medic friends also said it hurts so I won't be using it on elderly patients as might hurt them. I think it's too rigid, heavy and not long enough hence the problem. I'll be getting myself a queen square hammer to use instead.

Best equipment ever!
Amazing! Everything you need and so easy to use. Not cumbersome and easily cleaned between patients. I love the how the bottom comes out to test sensation. Brilliant piece of kit for any nurse practitioner!

Good product
It's my first reflex hammer so I can't really compare it to others. But it feels like a good quality product, the skewed weight of the device permits easy eliciting of reflexes. Havent used the cutaneous reflex brush just yet, but I can assume it will make life alot simpler.

brush
Brush is poor quality at the bottom and is difficult to place back in so after a few uses will get all bent .

neurological hammer
Excellent instrument better than the patella hammer in my days of nursing many years ago. Good value for money.
