Excessive involuntary movement
What is hyperkinetic?
100
Increased, hyperactive reflexes problem in the UMN or CNS.
What is hyperreflexia?
100
A high level motor disturbance, disorder of learned movement, that is not caused by paralysis, weakness, or incoordination and can't be accounted for by sensory loss, comprehension deficits, or inattention to commands. Lesion occurs often bilateral in the cortical association areas.
What is apraxia?
100
Tone results from a lesion in the ______ with a decrease in the _______.
What is UMN and LMN?
100
The motor symptoms of the disease result from the death of cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain. This results in not enough dopamine in these areas. is a long-term degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that mainly affects the motor system.[1] The symptoms generally come on slowly over time. Early in the disease, the most obvious are shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement, and difficulty with walking.[1] Thinking and behavioral problems may also occur. Dementia becomes common in the advanced stages of the disease
What is Parkinson's Disease?
200
Extensor plantar reflex sign of lesion in UMN
What is Babinski sign?
200
Rapid succession of muscle contraction/relaxation; often with hyperreflexia. Problem is in the UMN.
What is clonus?
200
Weakness results from a lesion in the _____
What is UMN?
200
A type of apraxia that effects conceptual plans and the steps to planning complex movement plans. Ex: a patient who is handed paint may eat it because they forget its primary function Effects those with dementia
What is ideational apraxia?
200
is an inherited disorder that results in death of brain cells.[1] The earliest symptoms are often subtle problems with mood or mental abilities.[2] A general lack of coordination and an unsteady gait often follow.[3] As the disease advances, uncoordinated, jerky body movements become more apparent.[2] Physical abilities gradually worsen until coordinated movement becomes difficult and the person is unable to talk.[2][3] Mental abilities generally decline into dementia.[4] The specific symptoms vary somewhat between people.[2] Symptoms usually begin between 30 and 50 years of age, but can start at any age
What is Huntington's disease?
300
Involuntary contraction/twitching of INDIVIDUAL muscle fibers not visible to the human eye. Caused by denervation to the LMN.
What are fibrillations?
300
umbrella term for " movement disorders", including hyper and hypokinetic subtypes. Problem with the BG.
What is dyskinesia?
300
Atrophy results from a lesion to the __________.
What is LMN?
300
A lesion to the frontal lobe, dominant hemisphere, or motor association areas may cause an individual to fail to carry out motor act per verbal command. Example: wave goodbye, the patient will understand the conceptual part of the waving process but the motor gesture is disturbed. This is called:
What is ideomotor apraxia?
300
Ataxia is usually ____ to the side of the lesion?
What is ipsilateral?
400
Wasting or shrinking. Problem with LMN.
What is atrophy?
400
Involuntary wild flinging of the limbs. Lesion is in the Subthalamic nucleus of the BG.
What is hemiballismus?
400
Fasciculations result from a lesion to the ________.
What is LMN?
400
Apraxia that affects non-speech movements
What is buccofacial apraxia?
400
These types of lesions usually cause unsteady gait, eye movement abnormalities, and are often accompanied by vertigo, nausea, and vomiting.
What is midline lesions?
500
Diminished reflexes problem in the LMN and PNS.
What is hyporeflexia?
500
Progressive atrophy of the striatum (CP) with dementia and hyperkinetic movement disorders; autosomnal dominant.

500
Reflexes are caused from a lesion in the _____ with a decrease in the LMN.
What is UMN?
500
This is an acquired oral motor speech disorder affecting an individual's ability to translate conscious speech plans into motor plans, which results in limited and difficult speech ability.
