O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar a relação entre a força muscular isométrica máxima de preensão e a espasticidade de músculos da extremidade superior parética. Foram incluídos 33 pacientes com diagnóstico clínico de Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC) em diferentes estágios de recuperação sensório-motora, de ambos os sexos com média de idade de 50,84 (±13,69 anos) e que foram atendidos no Hospital das Clínicas de Campinas-SP ou centros de reabilitação. Em estudo descritivo transversal foram colhidos em sessão única os seguintes dados: a)-força isométrica máxima de preensão, utilizando-se dinamômetro hidráulico em três tentativas alternadas para cada membro; b) grau de espasticidade graduado por meio da escala de tônus de Ashworth de 8 grupos músculos da extremidade superior parética (AS). Houve apenas uma fraca correlação entre a força muscular e o tônus muscular dos músculos avaliados, incluindo músculos flexores dos dedos, adutores de polegar e flexores de cotovelo (r<0,60). Estes dados sugerem que o dinamômetro hidráulico pode ser utilizado para mensuração de força muscular em pacientes com preensão débil conforme protocolo apresentado.
