A modified servo-controlled torque motor system (Lido WorkSet II) was designed for this study to analyze the resistance to passive movement of the knee. It determines the amount of torque required to move the knee joint (without voluntary resistance) at high velocities (up to 200 degrees per second) and at slow velocities (as low as 10 degrees per second). The slow displacement torque is a measure of the passive resistance to movement (from the connective tissue and the non-contracting muscle) and the rapid displacement torques are the sum of the passive and active (involuntary) resistance. The active (involuntary) resistance is the result of the stretch reflex and correlates well with the clinical assessment of spasticity. The change was calculated by taking the value at Week 7 and subtracting the value at Week 0. A negative result indicates a decrease in the torque measured and correlates to a decrease in spasticity and a better outcome.

The Modified Ashworth scale measures resistance during passive soft-tissue stretching. Spasticity is graded on a scale of 0 (no increase in muscle tone) to 4 (affected part rigid in flexion or extension). The highest score (flexion or extension), for the lower extremities only, was used for each subject. The change was calculated by taking the Week 7 score and subtracting the Week 0 score. A negative result indicates a decrease in spasticity and correlates to a better outcome.

The AI is a 9-point rating scale used to assess mobility by evaluating the time and degree of assistance required to walk 25 feet. Scores range from 0 (asymptomatic, fully active) to 9 (restricted to wheelchair, unable to transfer self independently). Lower scores represent a better outcome for MS patients. For this study, the AI score was based on the results of the 25 Foot Walk test, also performed at the study visit. The change was calculated by taking the Week 3 score and subtracting the Week 0 score. A negative result for this outcome indicates an improvement in ambulation and correlates to a better outcome.

The PASAT is a measure of cognitive function that specifically assesses auditory information processing speed and flexibility, as well as calculation ability; The test is presented via recording on a CD to control the rate of stimulus presentation. Single digits are presented every 3 seconds and the patient must add each new digit to the one immediately prior to it. The test score is the number of correct sums given (out of a possible 60) in each trial. There are 2 test forms, A and B. The forms were alternated and at least 1 practice test (10 sums) was performed prior to each trial. The change was calculated by taking the Week 3 score and subtracting the Week 0 score.

The AI is a 9-point rating scale used to assess mobility by evaluating the time and degree of assistance required to walk 25 feet. Scores range from 0 (asymptomatic, fully active) to 9 (restricted to wheelchair, unable to transfer self independently). Lower scores represent a better outcome for MS patients. For this study, the AI score was based on the results of the 25 Foot Walk test, also performed at the study visit. The change was calculated by taking the Week 3 score and subtracting the Week 0 score. A negative result for this outcome indicates an improvement in ambulation and correlates to a better outcome.

A modified servo-controlled torque motor system (Lido WorkSet II) was designed for this study to analyze the resistance to passive movement of the knee. It determines the amount of torque required to move the knee joint (without voluntary resistance) at high velocities (up to 200 degrees per second) and at slow velocities (as low as 10 degrees per second). The slow displacement torque is a measure of the passive resistance to movement (from the connective tissue and the non-contracting muscle) and the rapid displacement torques are the sum of the passive and active (involuntary) resistance. The active (involuntary) resistance is the result of the stretch reflex and correlates well with the clinical assessment of spasticity. The change was calculated by taking the value at Week 3 and subtracting the value at Week 0. A negative result indicates a decrease in the torque measured and correlates to a decrease in spasticity and a better outcome.

The Pain Effects Scale is a 6-item scale developed to assess the effects of pain on behavior and mood. It is a part of the MS Quality of Life Inventory. The scale is measured from 6-30. The scale is set up so that a higher score indicates a greater impact of pain on a patient's mood and behavior. The change was calculated by taking the Week 3 score and subtracting the Week 0 score. A negative result indicates a decrease in the impact of pain on mood and behavior and correlates to a better outcome. A positive result indicates an increase in the impact of pain on mood and behavior and correlates to a worse outcome.
