Answer 13

slow, sustained stretching (short term effect)

Question 14

passive movement of limbs at varying speeds

Answer 14

examination of tone

affected part rigid in flexion or extension

Answer 30

Modified ashworth scale 4

Question 31

slight increase in muscle tone, manifested by a catch or by minimal resistance at the end of the range of motion, when the affected part is moved in flexion or extension

Answer 31

Modified ashworth scale 1
