Effect of Botulinum Toxin Injections on Motor and Functional Ability of Upper Limb in Adults at Earlier Phases of Spastic Hemiplegia After Stroke
Botulinum toxin produced beneficial effects in spasticity in the hemiplegic upper limb. This study will test if botulinum toxin injections at earlier phases (\<or = 3 months) in spasticity improve functional and motor tests compared with late injections (\>or = 6 months).
