| Patient with movement disorders | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Perform physical examination | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Perform finger or foot tapping | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Increased alternating movements | Progressive fatiguing and decrement of repetitive alternating movements | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Hyperkinetic/non-rigid | Rigid | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Jerky | Non-jerky | Akinetic | Hypokinetic | Bradykinetic | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Sudden, brief, shock-like involuntary movements | Randomly flowing movements, which are, individually, jerky in nature | ‘Stereotyped’ character of the recurrent movements | Involuntary, rhythmic and sinusoidal alternating movements of one or more body parts | Involuntary abnormal co-contraction of antagonistic muscles, which may cause sustained abnormal postures or twisting and repetitive movements | Parkinsonism | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
