Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.Age: Adults aged 18 years and above. 2.Individuals diagnosed with stroke, exhibiting clinical signs of spasticity in knee flexors or extensors. 3.Able to understand and follow verbal instructions. 4.Willing and able to provide informed consent. 5.Patients who have sufficient range of motion (ROM) in the knee joint to allow passive movement.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1.Musculoskeletal problems like presence of contractures, fixed deformities, severe joint instability, or recent fractures in the knee joint that would prevent safe passive movement. 2.Individuals experiencing pain during passive movement of the knee joint that could interfere with assessment or pose risk of injury. 3.Patients with skin hypersensitivity or open wounds at the site of sensor application (thigh/shank) will be excluded 4.Coexisting neurological disorders (e.g., peripheral neuropathy, Parkinson s disease) that could confound spasticity assessment. 5.Recent (within the past 3 months) treatment with botulinum toxin, phenol injections, or surgical interventions targeting spasticity in the tested limb. 6.Pregnant women (if the device or protocol poses any risk or discomfort).
