Ideomotor apraxia: a study of initial severity
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1987This study investigated whether there are predictors for initial severity of ideomotor apraxia (IMA) in focal left-hemisphere vascular patients. One hundred and twenty-nine subjects were examined between 15 and 30 days post-onset. Twenty-five patients with bilateral lesions were also studied in order to delineate the role of the right hemisphere. Other

Cognitive representations of hand posture in ideomotor apraxia
Neuropsychologia, 2003Ideomotor apraxia (IM) is a disorder of skilled action characterized by spatiotemporal errors in pantomiming object use and in using objects. Recent evidence suggests that at least some patients with IM may exhibit particular deficits in forming hand configurations appropriate for object use. Sirigu et al.

Ideomotor apraxia in patients with dementia of alzheimer type
Journal of Neurology, 1987Ideomotor apraxia was checked in a carefully selected group of patients with Alzheimer's dementia, all in the mild stage of the disease. It was shown that ideomotor apraxia is not an early neuropsychological feature. When compared with other cognitive measures, the speed of deterioration of ideomotor apraxia appears to be particularly slow.

Ideomotor and ideational apraxia in alzheimer's disease
International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, 1993AbstractIdeomotor apraxia (IMA) and ideational apraxia (IA) were studied in 32 Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients and in 30 non‐demented elderly controls using a standardized apraxia battery. AD patients performed significantly worse than controls on all apraxia tests, and were more impaired when pantomiming movements than when imitating movements.

Ideomotor apraxia in Alzheimer's disease
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009Ideomotor apraxia, tested on verbal command and by imitation, was checked in 23 patients suffering from dementia of Alzheimer's type of different severity and in 17 age-matched controls. A significant deterioration of ideomotor praxis could be shown even in mild dementia.

Two forms of ideomotor apraxia
Neurology, 1982Destruction of parietal areas containing visuokinesthetic motor engrams, where motor acts may be programmed, should be distinguishable from apraxia induced by disconnection of these parietal areas from frontal motor areas. Destruction should result in inability to distinguish well-performed from poorly performed movements, whereas disconnection should ...

Sensorimotor Learning in Ideomotor Apraxia
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1995Sensorimotor learning ability in patients with ideomotor apraxia was investigated, using as subjects, eight patients with ideomotor apraxia, 8 with aphasia without ideomotor apraxia, and 8 normal controls. The aphasia, apraxia, and normal control groups were matched for age, sex, and education.

Ideomotor Apraxia And Functional Ability
Cortex, 2007The impact of ideomotor apraxia (IMA) on functional ability has been a relatively neglected topic in research. This has been due to the continued focus on performance on gesture imitation and pantomime of tool-use, together with widespread acceptance of anecdotal evidence that IMA has no effect when directly manipulating objects.

Ideomotor Apraxia in Huntington's Disease
Archives of Neurology, 1991The pattern of movement errors in ideomotor apraxia suggests an abnormality in selection and sequencing of component movements. Individuals with Huntington's disease were evaluated prospectively for the presence of apraxia, and aspects of motor and cognitive function were correlated with apraxic errors. Based on a conservative apraxia rating, ideomotor

LESION SIZE AND LOCATION IN IDEOMOTOR APRAXIA
Brain, 1984Lesion size correlated positively with the severity of apraxia in the acute (one month) and chronic (one year) stage in 177 stroke patients, but accounted for only 25 per cent of the variance of the apraxia scores. Apraxia was measured on a standardized battery and defined in relation to normal controls. Lesions visualized by CT were traced objectively
