|
what are the 6 stages of recovery from stroke |
Stage 1: initialflaccidity, no voluntary movement Stage 2: emergenceof spasticity, hyperreflexia, synergies Stage 3: voluntarymovement possible, but only in synergy, spasticity strong Stage 4: voluntarycontrol in isolated joint movements emerging, corresponding decline ofspasticity and synergies Stage 5: increasingvoluntary control out of synergy, coordination deficits present Stage 6: control andcoordination near normal |
