简要总结
Essential tremor (TE) is the most common abnormal movement of the adult. His diagnosis is based on a bundle of clinical arguments (Movement Disorders Society, 1998). Well characterized in the adult, little data is available concerning child. The objective of this work is (1) to define the demographic and clinical characteristics of the TE of children and adolescents, (2) to determine the electrophysiological characteristics in the child, (3) evaluate the functional impact of TE, and assess the functional impact of TE, and assess the current management modalities of TE in children and adolescent.
详细描述
A multicenter, descriptive cross-sectional study will include children and adolescents whose diagnosis of TE has been retained by an abnormal movement specialist before the age of 18 years.
Each child will benefit from an examination and a neurological and general clinical examination, a functional questionnaire, an electromyogram with accelerometer.
Will be determined: demographic characteristics (age, sex and ethnicity), family history of essential tremor, age of onset of tremor, tremor characteristics (location, occurrence conditions, aggravating or precipitating factors, scalability); additional examinations carried out and the treatments proposed or taken by the child as well as the functional repercussions of TE in the child.
Patients with tremor who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be selected retrospectively or prospectively from the active queue of patients at each center.
