Official title
Inter-Rater Reliability of a Spasticity Diagnosis Algorithm
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Spasticity is a condition that results from damage to the central nervous system and causes painful muscle contractures that drastically affect level of independence, activities of daily living, and quality of life. Although there are well-known and accepted treatments for spasticity, spasticity is often left undertreated; the specific reasons for this observation are unknown. Because there is no blood test or scan that indicates the presence of spasticity, diagnosis is based entirely on physician impression. Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that one reason that spasticity is undertreated is due to the lack of a standardized diagnostic procedure. This study attempts to test the reliability of a diagnostic flowchart that seeks to increase the accuracy of physician diagnosis of spasticity.
