BACKGROUND In the past, effortful exercises were considered inappropriate for children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) due to concern that they would escalate abnormalities including spasticity and abnormal movement patterns. Current scientific evidence indicates that these concerns were unfounded and that therapeutic interventions focused on muscle strengthening can lead to improved functiona...
To cite: Kumar N, Kumar G, Dembla G, et al. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2013-008820 A 20-year-old boy having weakness and atrophy of left upper limb since childhood, presented with difficulty in walking and spasticity of all the limbs for last 4 months. It was asymmetric in onset (L>R) and progressive, with no sensory, bowel or bladder complai...
OBJECTIVE To demonstrate single abobotulinumtoxinA injection efficacy in lower limb vs placebo for adults with chronic hemiparesis and assess long-term safety and efficacy of repeated injections. METHODS In a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-cycle study followed by a 1-year open-label, multiple-cycle extension, adults ≥6 months after stroke/brain injury receiv...
PURPOSE To examine if individualised resistance training increases the daily physical activity of adolescents and young adults with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy (CP). METHOD Young people with bilateral spastic CP were randomly assigned to intervention or to usual care. The intervention group completed an individualised lower limb progressive resistance training programme twice a week for ...
OBJECTIVE This randomised, double blind, placebo controlled, two parallel group study was conducted to assess the beneficial effect of injection of botulinum toxin A (Dysport) into the subscapularis muscle on shoulder pain in stroke patients with spastic hemiplegia. METHODS A single dose of botulinum toxin A (500 Speywood units) or placebo was injected into the subcapularis muscle. Pain was a...
Progressive limb spasticity and cerebellar ataxia are frequently found together in clinical practice and form a heterogeneous group of degenerative disorders that are classified either as pure spastic ataxia or as complex spastic ataxia with additional neurological signs. Inheritance is either autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive. Hypomyelinating features on MRI are sometimes seen with spa...
INTRODUCTION After stroke, spasticity is often the main problem that prevents functional recovery. Pain occurs in up to 70% of patients during the first year post-stroke. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 70 patients (30 female and 45 male) mean age (65.67) participated in prospective, controlled study. INCLUSION CRITERIA ischaemic stroke, developed spasticity of upper limb, post-stroke inte...
The effects of mechanically supporting a percentage of body weight on the gait pattern of spastic paretic subjects during treadmill locomotion was investigated. Electromyographic (EMG), joint angular displacement and temporal distance data were simultaneously recorded while 7 spastic paretic subjects walked at 0% and 40% body weight support (BWS) at their maximal comfortable treadmill speed. Fo...
Post-stroke spasticity is an important cause of disability in adults, due to muscle hyperactivity, which results in limb stiffness and muscle spasm. The prognosis for these patients depends on several features such as early management and adequate physical therapy to avoid muscle shortening, pain, and their consequences. Although several papers have shown that intramuscular injections of botuli...
The aim of this study was to analyze the displacements of center of pressure (COP) using an in-shoe recording system (F-Scan) before and after motor nerve block and neurotomy of the tibial nerve in spastic equinovarus foot. Thirty-nine patients (age 45 ± 15 yr) underwent a motor nerve block; 16 (age 38 ± 15.2 yr) had tibial neurotomy, combined with tendinous surgery (n = 9). The displacement of...
