Abstract
ESWT for the spasticity of patients after a stroke is effective, as measured by MAS grades. Moreover, no serious side effects were observed in any patients after shock wave therapy. Nevertheless, our current study with some limitations such as the limited sample size only provided limited quality of evidence; confirmation from a further systematic review or meta-analysis with large-scale, well-designed randomized control trials is required.
