Validation of a Spasticity Measurement Tool
Sponsor: Shirley Ryan AbilityLab
Summary
The objective of this project is to investigate the validity of a handheld spasticity measurement tool against standard clinical measurements of spasticity. We propose the testing apparatus will accurately provide an equivalent clinical measure of spasticity while also providing a more precise estimation of spastic response in persons with stroke.
