Medical - Medical (general) / gait
Italian term or phrase: (deambulazione) pareto-spastica
From a description of a patient's clinical condition following a traffic accident:

deambulazione pareto-spastica a piccoli passi per brevi tratti.

As I've only found one reference to this in Italian, it doesn't seem to be a standard term. (The English "paretospastic" also gives only one hit, from a Brazilian team). Does anyone have any ideas?

TIA

spastic walking
Explanation:
The reference noun is "spastic paralysis" or "spastic paraplegia"
I think it could be enough to say "spastic walking"
