Spasticity Assessment System for Elbow Flexors/Extensors: Healthy Pilot Study
Abstract
This paper describes initial testing of a spasticity assessment system for passive elbow flexion/extension motions using a robotic manipulator. Quantitative force data was collected from healthy individuals. As repetition and speed were increased, significant differences in measured force were found in a study with a high speeds (n=48), but were not found in a study with a lower speeds (n=52). This result assists clinicians who now possess a …
