متن کاملEffect of shock wave stimulation on hypertonic plantar flexor muscles in patients with cerebral palsy: a placebo-controlled study.
BACKGROUND Extracorporeal shock wave therapy has been reported to be effective in reducing muscle hypertonia in adults. AIM To evaluate the effect of shock wave treatment of spastic muscles in children with cerebral palsy. METHODS Twelve children with spastic equinus foot (6 boys,6 girls; mean age 8 years (standard deviation (SD) 2.31)) were monitored. Clinical (Ashworth Scale, passive rang...
