Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of spaces in the spine (backbone) which causes pressure on the spinal cord and nerves. About 75% of cases of spinal stenosis occur in the low back (lumbar spine).
Both static and dynamic measurements can be taken. Static coefficient of friction (SCOF) is the frictional. resistance one pushes against when starting in motion. Dynamic coefficient of friction (DCOF) is the frictional resis-. tance one pushes against when already in motion. For SCOF and DCOF, a slip occurs when pushing off with more.
Baclofen (Lioresal Â® , Gablofen Â®) is a prescription medication approved to treat spasticity caused by conditions such as multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebral palsy, or spinal cord injuries or diseases. Baclofen is not a narcotic. Although it is not fully understood exactly how the drug works to treat spasticity, it is chemically similar to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a chemical messenger in the central nervous system.
