<p>There is provided a system and a method for quantitative measurement of spasticity in a patient. It has been found that stretch reflex measurements, that are quantitatively indicative of spasticity, can be obtained by recording an EMG signal while the limb is being moved at a variety of angular velocities. The method advantageously allows the clinician to perform the test at the bedside by eliminating the need for cumbersome mechanical components for moving the limb while providing quantitative measurements.</p>
