Abnormal cutaneous flexor reflex activity during controlled isometric plantarflexion in human spinal cord injury spasticity syndrome

Abstract: Study design: Although abnormal cutaneous reflex (CR) activity has been identified during gait after incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI), this activity has not been directly compared in subjects with and without the spasticity syndrome. Objectives: Characterisation of CR activity during controlled rest and 'ramp and hold' phases of controlled plantarflexion in subjects with and without the SCI spasticity syndrome. Design: Transverse descriptive study with non-parametric group analysis. Setting: SCI rehabilitat… Show more

“…Outcome measures related to the SCI spasticity syndrome [31] included muscle hypertonia with the modified Ashworth scale (MAS) [32], and the Penn scale [33]. SCI severity and neurological level was performed by a clinical consultant who had participated in the AIS training course with the European Multicenter Study about Spinal Cord Injury (EMSCI) network.…”
