Reflexes are graded at the bedside in a semi-quantitative manner. The response levels of deep tendon reflexes are grade 0-4+, with 2+ being normal. The designation 0 signifies no response at all, even after reinforcement.
Their function, like that of stretch reflexes, is the coordination of muscles and body movements. The deep tendon reflex involves sensory neurons, interneurons, and motor neurons. The response reverses the original stimulus therefore causing relaxation of the muscle stimulated.he stretch and tendon reflexes complement one another. When one muscle is stretching and stimulating the stretch reflex, its antagonist is contracting and stimulating the tendon reflex. The two reflexes cause the same responses thus enhancing one another.
