Abstract:

Diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of patients with spasticity remain a challenge, in which standard methodological approaches have not yet been developed. One of the most promising solutions to this problem is the use of the Modified Tardieu scale (MTS). The article describes the method of working with MTS tested in the examination, treatment and rehabilitation of patients with acute cerebrovascular accident (n=112) and patients with multiple sclerosis (n=17). The original version of MTS has been translated into Russian. The use of MTS assessment system allows the diagnosis of the main elements of the clinical picture of the damage to the central nervous system, such as paresis, spasticity, violation of proprioception, as well as the qualitative and quantitative assessment of the dynamics of rehabilitation and treatment of spasticity with botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT).
