Tremor

Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 1991
Tremor is a rhythmic, involuntary muscular contraction with consistency of rate, amplitude and pattern. It is the most common of all involuntary movements. Several systems for classifying tremor exist with the most frequent system classed according to behavioral context, ie, resting, postural and action. Clinical recognition of tremor type is extremely

Tremor revisited: Treatment of PD tremor

Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2012
Parkinsonian tremor is among the most emblematic medical signs and is one of the cardinal manifestations of Parkinson's disease (PD). Its semiology has been extensively addressed by ancient and contemporary medical literature, but more attention has been dedicated to its medical treatment in the past than nowadays.

‘Orthostatic tremor’ in familial‐essential tremor

Neurology, 1986
We studied a family with essential tremor of the arms. Some members also had tremor of the trunk and legs on standing, but not on walking, sitting, or reclining. Tremor was evoked, regardless of body or limb position, by strong tonic contraction of the appropriate muscles; it was a type of static postural tremor.

Orthostatic tremor: An essential tremor variant?

Movement Disorders, 1988
AbstractThree patients with a clear‐cut history of essential tremor of the upper limbs presented with the clinical features reported by Heilman as orthostatic tremor. Electromyographic findings included 6–8 Hz postural tremor in all four limbs. Highly synchronized 16 Hz rhythmic discharges were found in the legs upon standing.

Orthostatic tremor: An association with essential tremor

Movement Disorders, 1991
AbstractOrthostatic tremor is characterized by tremor of the trunk and legs while standing. Rapid frequency has been emphasized as an important criterion for the diagnosis of this tremor. We observed five patients who had the typical findings of orthostatic tremor but had a wide range of frequencies.

Is Parkinsonian Arm Tremor a Resting Tremor?

European Neurology, 2008
Arm tremor in Parkinson’s disease occurs during rest which has been explained by a specific tremulous mechanism activated during rest. During action or posture maintenance, the tremor may persist or recur, but with reduced amplitude. We present 2 patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease who showed persisting arm tremor which was most marked during ...

Orthostatic Tremor Associated with Voice Tremor

European Neurology, 2008
We report a 67-year-old female with orthostatic and voice tremor. Her orthostatic tremor mainly affected her lower extremities, alternating between antagonist muscle groups at a frequency of 4.4-4.8 Hz. The voice tremor ranged between 4.8 and 8.8 Hz. In this case, the frequency of voice tremor was same as that of orthostatic tremor, suggesting a common

Midbrain tremor: a tremor resistant to treatment

Acta Neurologica Belgica, 2012
Midbrain tremor is a resting, postural, action and intentional tremor of the upper extremity. Partial response to pharmacological agents makes the treatment of this tremor difficult. We report, herein, three cases of patients with midbrain tremors involving their midbrain and thalamic area in ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes.

Resetting of tremor by mechanical perturbations: A comparison of essential tremor and parkinsonian tremor

Annals of Neurology, 1981
AbstractWith the use of a computer‐controlled torque motor, experiments were carried out on 11 patients with essential tremor and 13 with parkinsonian tremor to determine the effect of mechanical displacements at the wrist joint on the established pattern of tremor.

Essential Tremor

New England Journal of Medicine, 2000
Essential tremor (ET) is among the most common neurologic disorders. The traditional view of this disorder as a benign, monosymptomatic, familial condition is being replaced by a more complex view of ET as perhaps a family of diseases with etiologic, clinical, and pathologic heterogeneity.
