Clinical Trial Summary

1. Assessing whether the treatment diary can help optimize the overall treatment of patients.

2. To assess whether the patient finds the treatment diary useful and worth spending time on. Also if the patient finds it easier to evaluate the treatment and, if necessary, set new goals.

3. To assess whether the patient's quality of life is increased by the use of the treatment diary.

Clinical Trial Description

Hypothesis:

A treatment diary will increase the patient's awareness of which spasticity symptoms are significant and can enable the patients to evaluate the treatment more easily.

This will result in more relevant treatment goals. At the same time the treatment can be better addressed to the individual patient at routine controls. In addition, the treatment diary will result in closer cooperation between the physiotherapists and occupational therapists and the physician who administers the botulinum toxin. This collaboration is expected to lead to better common goals and optimization of treatment.

Finally, it is expected that the above will help to increase the patient's quality of life. ;
