nuchal rigidity test

Difficult to describe unless you actually see it! Basically it is to see if there is any stiffness in the neck (poss. for meningitis or in this case subarachnoid haemorrhage) - it forms part of the basic tests when carrying out a neurological examination. cf. Hunt and Hess scale.
BTW it is 'Opozice'
