Spasticity is common in multiple sclerosis (MS), often leading to functional limitations and disability. We developed a conceptual model of spasticity in MS integrating expert opinion, recent literature, and experiences of clinicians and people with MS spasticity. A conceptual model was developed based on a targeted literature review of articles published between 2014 and 2019, followed by input from clinicians, then input from participants with MS spasticity. Multidisciplinary experts on spasticity provided guidance at each step. Key concepts of the integrated spasticity conceptual model included: moderators; triggers; modifiers; treatment; objective manifestations; subjective experience; physical, functional, social, and emotional/psychological impacts; and long-term consequences. Participants with MS spasticity most frequently endorsed spasms, tightness, and pain as descriptors of spasticity. Some participants with MS spasticity had difficulty distinguishing spasticity from other MS symptoms (e.g. muscle weakness). Some triggers, emotional/psychological impacts, and long-term consequences of spasticity reported by participants with MS spasticity were not previously identified in the published literature. This conceptual model of spasticity, integrating published literature with the experience of clinicians, people with MS spasticity, and experts, demonstrates the complex, multidimensional nature of MS spasticity. This model may be used to improve clinician–patient dialogue, research, and patient care. Many people with multiple sclerosis (MS) have spasticity, generally in the lower limbs, but this symptom is complex and multidimensional and therefore difficult to characterize. MS spasticity may be influenced by moderators, triggers, modifiers, and treatment, all of which can affect objective measures and the subjective experience of spasticity. MS spasticity can have physical, functional, social, and emotional/psychological impacts as well as long-term consequences that can affect rehabilitation and ultimately reduce health-related quality of life for people with MS. Given that people with MS may view spasticity differently than their rehabilitation providers, providers should ask patients about their spasticity, including their moderators, triggers, modifiers, experience, impacts, long-term consequences, and effects on quality of life. This conceptual model provides a framework to improve clinician-patient dialogue, research, and rehabilitation for MS spasticity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
