Voxel-Based Lesion Analysis of Ideomotor Apraxia [PDF]
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]
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)

Motor Adaptation Deficits in Ideomotor Apraxia. [PDF]
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.

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

Ideomotor apraxia: A review [PDF]
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.

Hemispheric disconnection as a basis for neurodegeneration in apraxia and Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
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 and cerebral dominance for motor control [PDF]
Ideomotor apraxia is a symptom of left hemisphere damage. Patients with ideomotor apraxia commit errors when imitating movements with their left, non-paralyzed hand. This has been taken as evidence for a motor dominance of the left hemisphere. It has been hypothesized that the left hemisphere is dominant for internal preprogramming of skilled movements

Ideomotor apraxia and ideational apraxia. Their problems and differential diagnosis.
観念運動失行と観念失行の定義,検査法および問題点について述べた。まず,観念運動失行と観念失行の定義,分類および検査法については,本稿では山鳥に従った。山鳥の分類では,観念運動失行では自動詞的運動と他動詞的運動が混在し,下位分類の可能性も示唆された。また,観念失行については,ほかの道具の使用障害をきたす病態との鑑別が必要になる場合があり,そのなかでも意味記憶障害と多感覚様式失認との鑑別は注意深い臨床観察により可能であると考えられた。
