Inter-rater Reliability of the Australian Spasticity Assessment Scale (ASAS) in Post-stroke Spasticity
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Australian Spasticity Assessment Scale for Hemiplegia, Spastic. Completed, enrolled 85 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The reliability of the Australian Spasticity Assessment Scale (ASAS) has been reported to be not high enough in adult patients with acquired brain damage. The low number of patients and the heterogeneous study population have been reported as important limitations in the reliability study of this measure. Therefore, the reliability of the ASAS needs to be confirmed in stroke patients with spasticity. This study aims to investigate the inter-rater reliability of the ASAS in a study population consisting of a larger and more homogeneous patient population (those with post-stroke spasticity).
