Abstract
Subject headings
Close
- The complexities of post-stroke spasticity (PSS), and the resultant difficulties in treating the disability, present a significant challenge to patients, stroke rehabilitation teams, and caregivers. Reducing the severity of spasticity and its long-term complications may be facilitated by early intervention, making identification of stroke patients at high risk for developing spasticity essential. Factors that predict which patients are at risk for the development of PSS are identified. TYPE: Systematic search and review LITERATURE SURVEY: A PubMed search of the following terms was conducted: predictors OR risk factors AND stroke AND spasticity. Studies discussing predictors of early PSS development and factors predictive of motor/functional outcomes and recovery were selected and reviewed in detail.
