Severe spasticity of the upper extremity is a common complication after stroke, and it is usually a major contributor to the motor function disability. Part of the problem is that these trials have measured spasticity on the Ashworth Scale, which relies on the subjective judgment of the examiner. Intrathecal Gabalon (baclofen) and the SynchroMed system are used to treat severe spasticity in patients if conventional treatments don't. |
