What is the significance of hyperreflexia?
It indicates upper motor neuron disease. Hence, it is often associated with other findings of lost
corticospinal inhibition, such as spasticity, Babinski, clonus, and exaggerated reflexes, often accompanied
by irradiation (such as the jaw-jerk and finger-flexor reflex).
