13 wrz 2012 · Despite the potential benefits of ITB, <1% of stroke patients with severe disabling spasticity are treated with ITB. 52 Possiblereasons for ITB underutilization include surgical risks, excessive weakness, less effect on upper limbs, and limited functional improvement. These concerns are alleviated by recent studies that conclude that the ...

15 sty 2021 · Review Multidisciplinary rehabilitation following botulinum toxin and other focal intramuscular treatment for post-stroke spasticity.
PMCID: PMC8011679 PMID: 33884109. Abstract. Objective. To identify barriers to appropriate referral and treatment for patients with spasticity and present solutions that address these in a pragmatic way. Methods.
10 lut 2024 · Our modified scoping review included 11 interventions for post-stroke spasticity treatment, with 14 studies qualifying as the best evidence (high quality/GRADE A).
10 lut 2024 · The focus was placed on high-quality (GRADE A) medical, rehabilitation, and surgical interventions. In total, 32 treatments for post-stroke spasticity were identified. Two independent reviewers rigorously assessed studies, extracting data, and evaluating bias using GRADE criteria. Only interventions with GRADE A evidence were considered.
Method: This review aims to define spasticity, describe hypotheses explaining its development after a stroke, give an overview of related neuroimaging studies as well as a description of the most common scales used to quantify the degree of spasticity and finally explore which treatments are currently being used to treat this disorder.
15 sty 2021 · The mere presence of spasticity is not enough reason to initiate treatment. A thoughtful assessment of the clinical picture and functional impairment is the first step in establishing a management strategy, followed by treatment goal setting.
