| Abstract: | The impact of Botulinum Neurotoxin-A (BoNT-A) injections on muscle strength is yet to be fully established. The development of a standardised handheld dynamometry (HHD) protocol for the assessment of the neurological population is required before formally investigating the impact of BoNT-A on muscle strength. |
