Hyperkinetic movement disorders: differential diagnosis and treatment

Hyperkinetic movement disorders comprise a range of diseases characterized byunwanted and uncontrollable, or poorly controllable, involuntary movements. The phenomenology of these disorders is quite variable encompassing chorea, tremor, dystonia, myoclonus, tics, other dyskinesias, jerks and shakes. Discerning the underlying condition can be very difficult given the range and variability of symptoms. But recognizing the phenomenology and understanding the pathophysiology are essential to ensure appropriate treatment.Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders provides a clinical pathway for effective diagnosis and management of these disorders. The stellar international cast of authors distils the evidence so you can apply it into your practice. The judicious use ofdiagnostic criteriaalgorithmsrating scalesmanagement guidelinesProvides a robust framework for clear patient management.
