Pronunciation: [ɛkstˈɛnsə plˈantə ɹˈiːflɛks] (IPA) 
The term "Extensor Plantar Reflex" refers to a neurologic reflex that is commonly tested during physical examinations. This reflex involves the extension of the big toe and fanning out of the other toes when the sole of the foot is stimulated. It is commonly known as the "Babinski reflex" or the "Plantar reflex". These terms are often used interchangeably to describe this involuntary response. Furthermore, the "upgoing toe reflex" or "positive Babinski sign" are additional synonyms used to describe an abnormal response where the toes point upwards rather than curling downwards. Understanding these synonyms is crucial for medical professionals to accurately assess the integrity of the central nervous system during assessments.
