Filter by:The aim of this study is to investigate the validity and Inter-rater reliability for early recognition of spasticity by nurses and physiotherapists using the decision tree tool.
Determining the mean/median time between botulinum toxin-A injection within the treatment of patients with spasticity after stroke in relation to the botulinum toxin dose from a healthcare insurance database in the Netherlands.
Spasticity is part of the syndrome motor neuron following a Stroke. It is a clinical sign of great complexity that generates disability, limiting the function and altering the quality of life of the subjects, generating great impact on families and society. Identify times and characteristics of appearance; as well as its predictive factors can support an early intervention, orienting and strengthening the work of the rehabilitation team. Determine the times of establishment, location and factors that favor the development of spasticity in acute stage and how it influences the functionality, quality of life and emotional level of post-stroke patients in hospital facilities. Through this proposal, it is proposed to generate a new line of research that allows the development of scientific evidence in the area of neurorehabilitation, specifically in the field of spasticity, through the identification of establishment times, affected structures and predominant patterns in the extremities; as well as determining factors that favor the development of spasticity and its impact on post-stroke functionality and quality of life. This information will strengthen the rehabilitative process of these subjects and the actions of the rehabilitation team, supporting the identification of preventive measures and implementing effective interventions that allow achieving better motor and functional results, in search of an optimal recovery.
The aim of the study was to analyze which step of the procedure of toxin botulinum injection is the most painful between skin break-in, electric stimulation, injection and needle withdrawal.
The purpose of this research study is to assess the long term safety of Dysport® in hemiparetic subjects with lower limb spasticity due to stroke or traumatic brain injury over repeated treatment cycles.

This is a study to confirm the superior efficacy of a single treatment of GSK1358820 over placebo in patients with post-stroke upper limb spasticity of both the wrist and finger flexors using the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) wrist score.
