Hypertonisen is a term found in several European languages used as the adjectival form of hypertonic or to describe hypertonia in physiology and neurology. In English, the corresponding terms are typically hypertonic (relating to solutions with higher osmolality) and hypertonia (the condition of increased muscle tone). Hypertonisen thus denotes a state of higher tonicity, osmolality, or muscle tone relative to a reference.
In physiology and medicine, a hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration than the fluid inside cells.
In neurology, hypertonia refers to increased resting muscle tone and encompasses conditions such as spasticity, rigidity,
