Spasticity is a motor disorder characterized by muscular hyperactivity caused by impaired nerve conduction.  Diagnosis of this pathology relies on the assessment of the degree of resistance of the limb following a passive movement performed by the practitioner, and is used to determine the treatment to be followed. However, this assessment remains subjective and requires practical experience. Experience can only be gained by training on real patients.
