Serial casting for the management of spasticity in the head-injured adult.

B J Booth, M Doyle, J Montgomery.   

Abstract

Soft tissue contractures resulting from spasticity are a frequent sequella of traumatic head injuries. This article identifies rationale for the use of serial casting to manage these deformities, provides guidelines for cast fabrication and application, and reports the results of lower extremity casting on 42 head-injured adults at Rancho Los Amigos Hospital.
