Use of Botulinum Toxin for Limb Immobilization for Rehabilitation in Rats with Experimental Stroke

Use of Botulinum Toxin for Limb Immobilization for Rehabilitation in Rats with Experimental Stroke

Motor rehabilitation strategies after unilateral stroke suggest that the immobilization of the healthy, unimpaired limb can promote the functional recovery of a paretic limb. In rodents, this has been modeled using casts, harnesses, and other means of restricting the use of the non-paretic forelimb...
