Eligibility Criteria

Age19 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • age over 18 years
  • hemiplegic upper limb spasticity secondary to a unilateral ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke
  • fingers and wrist flexor spasticity graded at least 1+ on the Modified Ashworth Scale
  • at least 6 months since stroke

You may not qualify if:

  • fixed contracture
  • previous treatment of the upper limb spasticity with neurolytic or surgical procedure
  • treatment with botulinum toxin type A in the previous 4 months
  • any active device implant
  • any neurological disorder, other than stroke causing motor deficits or spasticity
  • inability to attend to and/or to cooperate with all outcome measure-related task secondary to cognitive impairment or aphasia
  • pregnancy, planned pregnancy, or lactation
  • contraindication to botulinum toxin type A
