Classification of upper limb spasticity patterns in patients with multiple sclerosis: a pilot observational study
The patterns of upper limb spasticity in patients with multiple sclerosis described by this pilot study do not completely overlap with those observed in patients with post-stroke spasticity. This further supports the need to consider the features of spasticity related to its aetiology in order to manage patients appropriately.
