Abstract

The reflex activity and the biomechanical changes have been studied in patients with the spastic form of cerebral palsy before and after the fetal neural tissue transplantation. It has been found that combination of these methods can be used for credible evaluation of the condition of efferent arch of neural movements control. Because of broad multiformity of electromyography results of passive movements tests, individual comparative analysis has been applied. Changes in reflecs activity and of biomechanical indexes have been found in 80% of patients after the transplantation surgery. These changes were accompanied by the decrease of a muscular tonus. Discovered effects were long lasting.
