Bedside clinical signs to be noted in stroke; (A) a patient who has not suffered a stroke can generally hold the arms in an extended position with eyes closed. (B) A patient with stroke will often display ‘arm drift’ (pronator drift)—one arm will remain extended when held outwards with eyes closed, but the other arm will drift or drop downwards and pronate (palm turned downwards).
