dc.description.abstractAssessment of muscle tone in a clinical setting is important for the physiotherapist to better analyse and establish appropriate treatments for CNS disorders. This study aims to review and summarise how to assess changes in tone in the context of adult rehabilitation. Secondarily, this study aimed to identify the central nervous system disorders, the respective variable/concept under study, and the testing procedures employed. PRISMA-ScR guidelines were followed using the “population”, “concept”, and “context” to define the eligibility criteria and to delineate the research question. PubMed®, Science Direct®, Web of Science™, and Google Scholar® databases were used to search the literature. The search included studies published between 2011 and March 2023 in Portuguese, English, French, and Spanish that assessed an adult population (>19 years) with CNS injury. Review articles, qualitative studies, conference proceedings, letters to the editor, and editorials were excluded. Initially, 1519 references were identified, of which eight met the eligibility criteria. The measurement instruments included the Modified Ashworth Scale (n = 5), the Modified Modified Ashworth Scale (n = 3), the BioTone™ system (n = 2), the Montreal Spasticity Measurement (n = 1), and the Tone Evaluation Scale (n = 1). The health conditions considered included stroke sequelae (n = 7), multiple sclerosis (n = 4), spinal cord injuries (n = 4), cerebral palsy (n = 2), brain tumour (n = 2), and traumatic brain injuries (n = 3). The concepts of spasticity (n = 7) and muscle tone (n = 2) were explored. Considering the variables spasticity and muscle tone in different CNS disorders, mainly stroke, subjective instruments were preferred compared to objective ones, with the Modified Ashworth Scale being highlighted.pt_PT
