Abstract

Life Sciences & Biomedicine Rehabilitation Science & Technology
In discussing spasticity and its pathophysiology we presented evidences for cellular alteration and their neurocontrol. We outline clinical practice of recognizing and describing spasms and spasticity in order to emphasize residual descending influence to the spinal cord. Finally, we provide published evidences that such residual descending influence can be exerted under an attempt of an altered motor task and exert facilitation of excitation and suppression of the central state of the spinal cord reflex activity.
