| Hyperflexion of the neck was encouraged by experienced practitioners. |
| Had the nurses reassessed the need for hyperflexion, injury to the patient could have been avoided. |
| The patient was wearing a seatbelt during the impact and reported hyperflexion of his neck upon impact. |
| In front, the mobile plate is highly scalloped to avoid all contact with the patellar tendon or the point of the patella in hyperflexion. |
| There is also an increase in pressure reflexes, i.e. a stimulus which affects the palm of the hand provokes a reflected hyperflexion in that hand. |
| The mechanism of injury is often a direct blow to the front of the lower leg in contact or a fall onto the knee causing hyperflexion of the knee. |
