Spatial mapping of posture-dependent resistance to passive displacement of the hypertonic arm post-stroke

Abstract Background Muscles in the post-stroke arm commonly demonstrate abnormal reflexes that result in increased position- and velocity-dependent resistance to movement. We sought to develop a reliable way to quantify mechanical consequences of abnormal neuromuscular mechanisms throughout the reac...
