Summary

The spastic type, which is the most common type of CP, constitutes approximately 75% of individuals. The most prominent physical examination finding in patients with CP is marked tonus changes. Increased tonus and involuntary movement patterns are frequently observed clinically. Today, the Modified Ashworth Scale is mostly used in the evaluation of spasticity in individuals. Ashworth scale was defined in 1964 and modified in 1987. This scale was developed to assess muscle tone. Resistance to passive movement is evaluated and scored between 0-4.
