Movement disorders
- 4. Classification
of movement disorders
• Hypokinetic-hypertonic movement disorders
– parkinsonism
• Hyperkinetic-hypotonic movement disorders
(dyskinesias)
– tremor
– chorea
– dystonia
– tics
– myoclonus
– ballism
- 5. Classification
of parkinsonism
1. Primary, idiopathic parkinsonism
Parkinson’s disease - 80 %
2. Secondary parkinsonism
• drug-induced
• toxic
• vascular
• post-hypoxic
• post-encephalitic
• post-traumatic
3.Parkinsonism-plus syndromes
• Progressive supranuclear palsy
• Levy body dementia
• Multiple system atrophy
• Cortico-basal degeneration
- 8. Neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease
enviromental factors ageing genetic factors
oxydative stress excitotoxity
lack of protective mechanisms
mitochondrial damage
loss of nigral cells
- loss of dopamine
loss of other cell populations
- loss of other
neurotransmitters
APOPTOSIS
- 11. Diagnostic criteria
of Parkinson's disease
Hypokynetic-hypertonic
syndrome
Unilateral beginning of
the disease
(+) effect of levadopa
The absence of postural
instability, autonomic
symptoms, cognitive
disturbances at early stage
- 13. Treatment of Parkinson’s disease
• Levadopa drugs (nakom, madopar)
• Dopamine agonists (mirapex, pronoran)
• MAO-B inhibitors (selegiline)
• Amantidine (midantan)
• COMT – inhibitors
• Anticholinergic drugs (ciclodol)
- 17. Surgical treatment of Parkinson's disease
• Stereotactic destruction of
– thalamus
– pallidum
• Deep brain stimulation of
– thalamus
– internal segment of pallidum
– subthalamic nucleus
• Transplantation of dopamine-producing cells
– embrional cells
- 20. • Rest (pill-rolling) tremor
• Action tremor
– postural (occurs during maintenance of a
posture )
– kinetic (occurs during voluntary movement )
– intentional (appears in movements and
increases near of the aim)
Types of tremor
- 22. • Fatigue
• Anxiety
• Cold
• Hypoglycemia
• Hyperthyriodism
• Drugs (coffein, steroids)
Increased physiological tremor
- 23. Essential tremor
• It’s type of postural tremor
• Rhythmic, usually symmetric movement in the
hands, may involve the head
• Autosomal-dominant inheritance
• Onset may be in adolescence or early adult
years; if it’s develops late – senile tremor
• Aggravated by emotional stress, disappears
with a small amount of alcohol
• Neurological examination is normal except for
tremor
- 27. Dystonia
Focal (affects only one region of
the body)
Segmental (two adjacent
regions)
Multifocal (two or more
nonadjacent regions)
Hemidystonia
Generalized
- 32. • Hereditary: Huntington disease, Wilson disease
• Secondary: Sydenham chorea (rheumatic),
infections, encephalitis, systemic lupus
erythematosus
• Drug-induced chorea: antipsychotic, estrogens,
levadopa
• Metabolic and endocrine: hyperthyroidism,
hyperglycemic non-ketotic encephalopathy
• Senile chorea
Classification of chorea
- 33. Huntington disease
• Autosomal-dominant inheritance
• Abnormal irregular rapid jerky movements
• Progressive dementia
• The gait is unsteady with a tendency to bob
and weave
• Facial grimacing with involuntary movements
of the tongue
- 39. • clonazepam
• Valproat acid (depakin)
• Carbamazepin, hexamidin
• Nootropic drug (pyracetam) in high dosage
- 12 g i/v (in posthypoxic myoclonus)
Treatment of myoclonus
- 40. - are repetitive, rapid, usually brief
involuntary non-rhitmic stereotyped
movements, which involve the face,
axial muscles and proximal limbs.
Tics interrupt normal voluntary motor
activity
Tics
- 41. • Simple motor (blinking, twitching,
shrugging of the shoulders)
• Complex motor (handshaking,
scratching, kicking, toughing)
• Simple vocal (moaning, grunting,
hissing, clicking, shouting, throat
clearing, sniffing, coughing)
• Complex vocal (echolalia, coprolalia)
• Generalized (Tourette syndrome)
Classification of tics
- 44. -sudden onset of violent involuntary flinging
movements of the limbs. Usually affects only one
side of the body (hemiballism).
The appearance is similar to a baseball pitcher’s
windup.
Caused by a lesion of the subthalamic nucleus,
usually as a result of stroke
Ballism
