Eligibility Criteria
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
