ABSTRACT

Los trastornos paroxísticos no epilépticos son comunes en la población de niños pre-escolares. Estas condiciones incluyen una variedad de eventos cuyas manifestaciones y fisiopatología son muy distintas. Por esa razón, el diagnóstico puede representar un difícil reto. En algunas ocasiones, estudios como el EEG o la polisomnografía pueden ayudar a clarificar el diagnóstico y descartar un trastorno epiléptico. Sin embargo, la historia clínica y el examen físico suelen ser suficientes para llegar al diagnóstico correcto. En este artículo, presentamos información sobre los trastornos paroxísticos no epilépticos más comunes en la población de niños pre-escolares, incluyendo: tics, discinesias, eventos relacionados al sueño, etc. Además, discutimos estrategias para el diagnóstico y opciones de tratamiento.


Paroxysmal events are commonly encountered in toddlers. These events include a variety of conditions with different manifestations and pathophysiology. For that reason, the diagnosis of these events can be challenging. In some instances, studies such as EEG and polysomnogram may be useful to differentiate between epileptic and non-epileptic events. In the majority of cases, a complete clinical history is enough to make an appropriate diagnosis. In this article, we review some of the most common paroxysmal non-epileptic events affecting toddlers, such as: tics, dyskinesias, sleep related events, etc. We also discuss diagnostic strategies and treatment options.

ABSTRACT

According to current proposals for ICD-11, stereotyped movement disorder will be classified in the grouping of neurodevelopmental disorders, with a qualifier to indicate whether self-injury is present, similar to the classification of stereotypic movement disorder in DSM-5. At the same time, the WHO ICD-11 Working Group on the Classification of Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders has proposed a grouping of body-focused repetitive behavior disorders within the obsessive-compulsive and related disorders (OCRD) cluster to include trichotillomania and skin-picking disorder. DSM-5 has taken a slightly different approach: trichotillomania and excoriation (skin picking) disorder are included in the OCRD grouping, while body-focused repetitive behavior disorder is listed under other specified forms of OCRD. DSM-5 also includes a separate category of nonsuicidal self-injury in the section on “conditions for further study.” There are a number of unresolved nosological questions regarding the relationships among stereotyped movement disorder, body-focused repetitive behavior disorders, and nonsuicidal self-injury. In this article, we attempt to provide preliminary answers to some of these questions as they relate to the ICD-11 classification of mental and behavioral disorders.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Classification systems (Nagi, International Classification for Function [ICF]) have become popular for categorizing the level of ability (ICF) or disability (Nagi) associated with movement disorders. Nevertheless, these classifications do not explore the ways in which one level may influence other levels. For example, how might the weakness and stiffness associated with some cases of cerebral palsy result in a stereotypical toe-gait? In this overview we describe a dynamic systems/constraints (DS/C) approach to understand relationships between levels, and how the approach can be used to rationalize a novel process for the evaluation and treatment of movement disorders. OBJECTIVES: There are three specific aims in this paper: first to present a general systems approach to understanding behavior at different levels; second to present tools of, and the results of empirical work using the DS/C approach; third to discuss the clinical implications and results of clinical interventions motivated by DS/C analysis for children with cerebral palsy, and individuals with Parkinson disease.


CONTEXTUALIZAÇÃO: Sistemas de classificação (Nagi e Classificação International de Funcionalidade (CIF)) têm se tornado populares para categorização do nível de habilidade (CIF) ou de incapacidade (Nagi) associado com distúrbios do movimento. No entanto, essas classificações não exploram as formas pelas quais um nível pode influenciar outros níveis; por exemplo, como a fraqueza e a rigidez observadas em alguns casos de paralisia cerebral podem resultar no padrão estereotipado de marcha equina. Neste artigo, descreve-se uma abordagem denominada sistemas dinâmicos/restrições (DS/C) para compreender as relações entre níveis e como ela pode ser utilizada para racionalizar um novo processo que norteie a avaliação e a intervenção de distúrbios do movimento. OBJETIVOS: Este artigo tem três objetivos específicos: apresentar uma abordagem geral sistêmica para compreender o comportamento em diferentes níveis de análise; apresentar ferramentas e resultados de estudos empíricos que utilizaram a abordagem DS/C e, por fim, discutir as implicações clínicas e os resultados de intervenções motivadas pela análise DS/C voltadas para crianças com paralisia cerebral e indivíduos com Doença de Parkinson.

ABSTRACT

A coreatetose paroxística (CP) é entidade rara. Até mesmo profissionais que estudam desordens do movimento näo costumam vê-la com freqüência. A ocorrência paroxística de moviemtnos distônicos, coréicos e atetósicos é a apresentaçäo típica da síndrome. O início costuma ser abrupto e os ataques podem durar de alguns segundos até horas. Casos esporádicos e, mais frequentemente,casos familiares têm sido relatados. A abordagem terapêutica com anticonvulsivantes, como a carbamazepina, nem sempre tem sucesso. Com esta droga, porém, geralmente há boa resposta na variante cinesiogênica da CP. É relatado o caso de um paciente jovem do sexo masculino com essa variante da CP. O início da doença se deu na puberdade. O exame neurológico era normal entre os ataques. A investigaçäo laboratorial, EEG, TC de crânio e RNM de segmento cefálico foram normais. Carbamazepina em doses baixas (100 mg/dia) foi eficaz no manejo dos ataques
