Lumbar spine evaluation - distraction

She has fair active forward flexion activities of the lumbar spine without positive ______________ (s/l help) signs upon spinal extension
that sounds right - ICManiac

I transcribe a lot of flexion/extension exams and while I have not personally heard it phrased that way, I think it makes perfect sense. What I do hear is whether or not the patient can extend WITHOUT help. An example would be by using his/her hands to push against the legs to return to an upright position.

Thank you. I was thinking along the lines of an acronym, but you have a good point.
This dictator has used that term before and I have had to flag it both times, frustrating.
