‘Listen’ to your tremor patient..with a stethoscope!
Objective: To report a novel and inexpensive method for evaluating tremor in the clinic and at the bedside. Background: Tremor is the most common involuntary…Quantitative Tremor Analysis of Functional Tremor
Objective: To compare the characteristic frequency of functional tremor with other tremor disorders using 3-D motion analysis and kinematics. Background: Functional tremor (FT) is a…Incongruity of Functional Tremor Predicts Better Response to Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Treatment
Objective: We hypothesised that patient whose functional tremor (FT) has more “voluntary” aspects may respond better to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). Background: Patients with…rTMS-induced effects on Functional Tremor: a randomized, double-blind, controlled study
Objective: To compare the effect on functional tremor (FT) of real rTMS vs sham and to test if hypnosis combined with rTMS might help to…Clinical spectrum of Functional Movement Disorders: A clinic based study from a developing country
Objective: We did a retrospective record review to determine the proportion of patients with functional MD visiting our clinic and to characterize the phenomenology of…The role of attention in functional movement disorders
Objective: Identify where the attentional focus naturally lies in functional movement disorders and evaluate which abnormal attentional foci contribute to symptom generation. The ultimate aim…Can a smartphone accelerometer differentiate between functional and organic tremor ?
Objective: The aim of the study was to determine if a smartphone accelerometer can distinguish functional tremor from organic tremor. Background: Differentiating functional tremor from…Electrophysiological characteristics of task-specific and position-specific tremor: A variant of dystonic tremor?
Objective: To explore the role of the bedside electrophysiological tests and the characteristics of tremor in task-specific and position-specific tremor. Background: Task-specific and position-specific tremors…Subjective and objective complaints of (functional) tremor: An individual approach
Objective: To correlate subjective and objective symptom fluctuations in patients with a functional (FT) or organic tremor (OT). Furthermore, to study the contribution of factors…Psychogenic Palatal Tremor: A Case Report
Objective: Palatal tremor(PT) is an extremly rare movement disorder, defined by rhythmic movements of the soft palate. PT is divided into two forms: essential PT(EPT)…
