Özet

Spasticity is a disorder that causes movement constraints in daily life and induced by upper neuron syndrome. Although spasticity is a well-known motor disorder, there are related diagnostic and assessment problems. The lack of common rating in assessment of spasticity causes significant differences between the interpretations of the specialists. In this study, it is aimed to conduct a highly accurate evaluation based on the Ashworth scale, which is one of the most accepted scales for assessment and grading of the spasticity.
