Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Change in Investigator and patient Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) scale: 7-point scale, ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse), with a score of 4 indicating no change. Change from baseline (visit 1) to visit 3 (visits occur every 3-4 months, during approximately 9 months of observation)
Secondary Global assessment of spasticity by Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) MAS - spasticity scores at each joint: shoulder, elbow, wrist, finger, thumb Visits 1, 2 and 3 (visits occur every 3-4 months, during approximately 9 months of observation)
Secondary Measurement of upper limb muscle weakness by Medical Research Council (modified MRC) scale for muscle strength Visits 1, 2 and 3 (visits occur every 3-4 months, during approximately 9 months of observation)
Secondary To document cost of treatment with Dysport in these patients Direct costs associated with the administration of Dysport will include the dose of Dysport, interval between reinjections, cost of healthcare resources: needles, syringes, identification techniques of the muscles. Visits 1, 2 and 3 (visits occur every 3-4 months, during approximately 9 months of observation)
