简要总结
This Study will help to explain us that ExtracorporealShockwave therapy can reduce spasticity in Stroke Patient,help them to restore their abilities and ROM.Therapy reduces dependency rate of patient.Also seen this therapy shows reduction in spasticity of CP child population.Improving the motor recovery.
详细描述
ESWT therapy increses molecular and immunological reactions,increase blood microcirculation and neurovascularization.It enhancing the neural proliferation of neural stem cell(NSC),which shows repair in brain function in CNS diseases.Extracorporeal shockwave can produce Nitric oxide in enzymatic and non enzymatic way which help, to reduce muscle spasm.Extracorporeal Shockwave reduce the exitibilty of motor neuron by vibratory stimulation of tendon and reduces tension.After 2 weeks ESWT muscle tension reduces increases range of motion reduces the pain.shock wave therapy appears to be effective in reducing spasticity levels irrespective of the age of the participants, the type of injury, and the tool used to measure the effect.ESWT change in motor neuron exitibilty & also associated with the spastic muscle.

主要结局
Modified Ashworth Scale MAS
时间窗: 12 Months
The Ashworth Scale method of grading spasticity, working with Cerebral Palsy and Stroke patients. The original Ashworth scale was a 5 point numerical scale that graded spasticity from 0 to 4, with 0 being no resistance and 4 being a limb rigid in flexion or extension. In 1987, while performing a study to exam interrater reliability of manual tests of elbow flexor muscle spasticity, Bohannon and Smith modified the Ashworth scale by adding 1+ to the scale to increase sensitivity. Since its modification, the modified Ashworth scale (MAS), has been applied in clinical practice and research as a measure of spasticity.
