In the present paper we describe the case of a left-brain damaged patient, who presented both symptoms. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

While these errors can confirm that apraxia is present, no correlation can be made between lesion site and error type. [emedicine.medscape.com]

• Disability

  Additionally, although the most disabling types of apraxia reflect damage to gesture and/or object memory systems, existing treatments have not fully taken advantage of principles of experience known to affect learning and neural plasticity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  She was obliged to wear a cast for a left humerus fracture for two months, and she found she could not move her left hand quickly with intention after removal of the cast; consequently her left hand was almost non-functional. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Anger

  Anger and frustration. In adulthood, particular symptoms or signs may also include: [ 3 ] Problems with planning and organisation. Difficulty learning new skills at work and at home (such as DIY). Difficulty when learning to drive. [patient.info]

• Tremor

  After treatment, although the bradykinesia, rigidity, and resting tremor of the patient significantly decreased, the dexterity of the patient's hands did not improve. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Patients may reach inaccurately and may be unable to grasp with precision because tremor interferes with a smooth action. Tremor typically increases when the hand is approaching the target. [doi.org]

• Perseveration

  […] to anterior corpus callosum leads to apraxia; only seen w/ left hand (no aphasia) Ideational Apraxia Failure to perform a sequential motor movement, though each individual component can be performed in isolation (e.g., completed in the wrong order or perseverate [brainaacn.org]

  Patients with frontal damage tend to perseverate on or repeat elements of the figure or to transform elements into familiar elements, such as transforming the circle with 3 dots into a face. [emedicine.medscape.com]

  Going on with an act or or keep repeating the same is called perseveration, which is a form of apraxia. Conversely, the impersistentia motorica, is when someone can not sustain a move. [braininjury-explanation.com]

• Motor Disturbances

  Joubert syndrome is a multisystem disorder that is associated with a constellation of cyclic ocular motor disturbances. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Additionally, two of the children showed significant generalization to imitated phrases with the treatment items. Four of the children maintained their treatment gains up to 4 months post-treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Despite evidence that several types of limb apraxia significantly impact functional abilities, surprisingly few studies have focused on development of treatment paradigms. [doi.org]

Analysis of his articulatory and prosodic abnormalities in the context of intact communicative abilities as well as description of symptoms dynamics over time provides valuable information for clinical diagnosis of this specific disorder and prognosis [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis The prognosis of acquired apraxia/dyspraxia will depend on the nature and severity of the underlying cause. [patient.info]

Our results argue for shared neural correlates of limb apraxia in AD and bvFTD and validate the syndrome as an important neuropsychological feature across different etiologies. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
