Voxel-Based Lesion Analysis of Ideomotor Apraxia [PDF]

Brain Sciences
Ideomotor apraxia is a cognitive disorder most often resulting from acquired brain lesions (i.e., strokes or tumors). Neuroimaging and lesion studies have implicated several brain regions in praxis and apraxia, but most studies have described (sub)acute ...

Ideational and Ideomotor Apraxia: A Qualitative Analysis [PDF]

Behavioural Neurology, 1992
This paper reviews research into both ideational and ideomotor apraxia focusing on the qualitative aspects of limb apraxia. The criteria based on a distinction between different type of movements which have been used to distinguish between ideational (IA)

The Paper-Toss Test: enhancing bedside recognition of corticobasal syndrome [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology
IntroductionThe diagnosis of corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is challenging due to its clinical overlap with other neurodegenerative disorders. Ideomotor apraxia is a core feature of CBS and often presents asymmetrically, but is often under-recognized in the

Effects of Virtual Rehabilitation Training on Post-Stroke Executive and Praxis Skills and Depression Symptoms: A Quasi-Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]

Diagnostics
Introduction: Apraxia is a neurological disorder that is common after a stroke and impairs the planning and execution of movements. In the rehabilitation field, virtual reality (VR) presents new opportunities and offers advantages to both rehabilitation ...

Hemispheric disconnection as a basis for neurodegeneration in apraxia and Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

Discover Mental Health
Introduction Apraxias, traditionally viewed as executive disorders secondary to focal lesions, are here reformulated as systemic outcomes of progressive interhemispheric disconnection—particularly relevant in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease ...

Ideomotor apraxia: A review [PDF]

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2007
Ideomotor apraxia (IMA) is a disorder traditionally characterized by deficits in properly performing tool-use pantomimes (e.g., pretending to use a hammer) and communicative gestures (e.g., waving goodbye). These deficits are typically identified with movements made to verbal command or imitation.

Axial movements in ideomotor apraxia [PDF]

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1982
Non-symbolic axial movements were examined and compared to oral and limb movements in a group of 60 aphasic patients (15 of each major subgroup) with exclusively left-sided brain damage. The contention in the literature that axial movements are preserved in patients with ideomotor limb apraxia was not confirmed.

Motor Adaptation Deficits in Ideomotor Apraxia [PDF]

Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, 2017
AbstractObjectives:The cardinal motor deficits seen in ideomotor limb apraxia are thought to arise from damage to internal representations for actions developed through learning and experience. However, whether apraxic patients learn to develop new representations with training is not well understood.
