A novel sensor-based assessment of lower limb spasticity in children with cerebral palsy
Abstract Background To provide effective interventions for spasticity, accurate and reliable spasticity assessment is essential. For the assessment, the Modified Tardieu Scale (MTS) has been widely used owing to its simplicity and convenience. However, it has poor or moderate accuracy and reliabilit...
