- •
- Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Dysarthric speech is a general description referring to a neurological speech disorder characterized by poor articulation. Depending on the involved neurological structures, dysarthria may be further classified as spastic, flaccid, ataxic, hyperkinetic and hypokinetic, or mixed.
Areflexia- MedGen UID:
- 115943
- •Concept ID:
- C0234146
- •
- Finding
Absence of neurologic reflexes such as the knee-jerk reaction.
Motor delay- MedGen UID:
- 381392
- •Concept ID:
- C1854301
- •
- Finding
A type of Developmental delay characterized by a delay in acquiring motor skills.
Decreased compound muscle action potential amplitude- MedGen UID:
- 908357
- •Concept ID:
- C4230625
- •
- Finding
Reduced level of the compound muscle action potential (CMAP), which is recorded following electrical stimulation of a nerve from surface electrodes overlying a muscle supplied by that nerve.
Delayed ability to sit- MedGen UID:
- 1368737
- •Concept ID:
- C4476710
- •
- Finding
A failure to achieve the ability to sit at an appropriate developmental stage. Most children sit with support at 6 months of age and sit steadily without support at 9 months of age.
Kyphosis- MedGen UID:
- 44042
- •Concept ID:
- C0022821
- •
- Anatomical Abnormality
Exaggerated anterior convexity of the thoracic vertebral column.
Hypotonia- MedGen UID:
- 10133
- •Concept ID:
- C0026827
- •
- Finding
Hypotonia is an abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle). Even when relaxed, muscles have a continuous and passive partial contraction which provides some resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia thus manifests as diminished resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia is not the same as muscle weakness, although the two conditions can co-exist.
Myopathy- MedGen UID:
- 10135
- •Concept ID:
- C0026848
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A disorder of muscle unrelated to impairment of innervation or neuromuscular junction.
Scoliosis- MedGen UID:
- 11348
- •Concept ID:
- C0036439
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
The presence of an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine.
Flexion contracture- MedGen UID:
- 83069
- •Concept ID:
- C0333068
- •
- Anatomical Abnormality
A flexion contracture is a bent (flexed) joint that cannot be straightened actively or passively. It is thus a chronic loss of joint motion due to structural changes in muscle, tendons, ligaments, or skin that prevents normal movement of joints.
Generalized amyotrophy- MedGen UID:
- 234650
- •Concept ID:
- C1389113
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Generalized (diffuse, unlocalized) amyotrophy (muscle atrophy) affecting multiple muscles.
Poor head control- MedGen UID:
- 322809
- •Concept ID:
- C1836038
- •
- Finding
Difficulty to maintain correct position of the head while standing or sitting.
Severe muscular hypotonia- MedGen UID:
- 326544
- •Concept ID:
- C1839630
- •
- Finding
A severe degree of muscular hypotonia characterized by markedly reduced muscle tone.
Joint hypermobility- MedGen UID:
- 336793
- •Concept ID:
- C1844820
- •
- Finding
The capability that a joint (or a group of joints) has to move, passively and/or actively, beyond normal limits along physiological axes.
Spinal rigidity- MedGen UID:
- 346721
- •Concept ID:
- C1858025
- •
- Finding
Reduced ability to move the vertebral column with a resulting limitation of neck and trunk flexion.
EMG: decremental response of compound muscle action potential to repetitive nerve stimulation- MedGen UID:
- 892749
- •Concept ID:
- C4021728
- •
- Finding
A compound muscle action potential (CMAP) is a type of electromyography (EMG). CMAP refers to a group of almost simultaneous action potentials from several muscle fibers in the same area evoked by stimulation of the supplying motor nerve and are recorded as one multipeaked summated action potential. This abnormality refers to a greater than normal decrease in the amplitude during the course of the investigation.
Myopathic facies- MedGen UID:
- 90695
- •Concept ID:
- C0332615
- •
- Finding
A facial appearance characteristic of myopathic conditions. The face appears expressionless with sunken cheeks, bilateral ptosis, and inability to elevate the corners of the mouth, due to muscle weakness.
Decreased fetal movement- MedGen UID:
- 68618
- •Concept ID:
- C0235659
- •
- Finding
An abnormal reduction in quantity or strength of fetal movements.
Strabismus- MedGen UID:
- 21337
- •Concept ID:
- C0038379
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
A misalignment of the eyes so that the visual axes deviate from bifoveal fixation. The classification of strabismus may be based on a number of features including the relative position of the eyes, whether the deviation is latent or manifest, intermittent or constant, concomitant or otherwise and according to the age of onset and the relevance of any associated refractive error.
Limited extraocular movements- MedGen UID:
- 388060
- •Concept ID:
- C1858427
- •
- Finding
Limited mobility of the eye within its socket.
- Abnormality of head or neck
- Abnormality of prenatal development or birth
- Abnormality of the digestive system
- Abnormality of the eye
- Abnormality of the musculoskeletal system
- Abnormality of the nervous system
