Measuring resistance to externally induced movement of the wrist joint in chronic stroke patients using an objective hand-held dynamometer

Objective: We evaluated the resistance to externally induced wrist extension in chronic stroke patients. We aimed to objectively measure and distinguish passive (muscle and soft tissue stiffness) and active (spasticity and spastic dystonia) components of the resistance. Methods: We used a hand-held...
