akathisia
Akathisia,
or acathisia (from Greek "to sit", a- indicating negation or absence,
lit. "inability to sit") is a movement disorder characterized by a
feeling of inner restlessness and a
compelling need to be in constant motion, as well as by actions such as rocking
while standing or sitting, lifting the feet as if marching on the spot, and
crossing and uncrossing the legs while sitting. People with akathisia are
unable to sit or keep still, complain of restlessness, fidget, rock from foot
to foot, and pace
Neuroleptic
malignant syndrome (NMS) is a rare, but life-threatening, idiosyncratic
reaction to neuroleptic medications that is characterized by fever, muscular
rigidity, altered mental status, and autonomic dysfunction. NMS often occurs
shortly after the initiation of neuroleptic treatment, or after dose increases
Neuroleptic
malignant syndrome (NMS) is a rare, but life-threatening, idiosyncratic
reaction to neuroleptic medications that is characterized by fever, muscular
rigidity, altered mental status, and autonomic dysfunction. NMS often occurs
shortly after the initiation of neuroleptic treatment, or after dose increases.
Signs
and symptoms
The
key to diagnosis is that NMS occurs only after exposure to an neuroleptic drug.
On average, onset is 4-14 days after the start of therapy; 90% of cases occur
within 10 days. However, NMS can occur years into therapy. Once the syndrome
starts, it usually evolves over 24-72 hours.
Cardinal
features are as follows:
Severe
muscular rigidity
Hyperthermia
(temperature >38°C)
Autonomic
instability
Changes in
the level of consciousness
Eg of
neuroleptic drug is haloperidol
Tardive
dyskinesias (TDs) are involuntary movements of the tongue, lips, face, trunk,
and extremities that occur in patients treated with long-term dopaminergic
antagonist medications. Although they are associated with the use of
neuroleptics, TDs apparently existed before the development of these agents.
People with schizophrenia and other neuropsychiatric disorders are especially
vulnerable to the development of TDs after exposure to conventional
neuroleptics, anticholinergics, toxins, substances of abuse, and other agents.
Tardive
dyskinesia /ˈtɑːrdᵻv ˌdɪskᵻˈniːʒə/ (TD) is a difficult-to-treat and often
incurable form of dyskinesia, a disorder resulting in involuntary, repetitive
body movements. In this form of dyskinesia, the involuntary movements are
tardive, meaning they have a slow or belated onset.[1] This neurological
disorder most frequently occurs as the result of long-term or high-dose use of
antipsychotic drugs,or in children and infants as a side effect from
usage of drugs for gastrointestinal disorders
Levodopa-induced
dyskinesia is a form of dyskinesia associated with levodopa used to treat
Parkinson's disease. It often involves hyperkinetic movements, including
chorea, dystonia, and athetosis.[

The term
mallet finger has long been used to describe the deformity produced by disruption
of the terminal extensor mechanism at the distal interphalangeal (DIP)
joint.[1, 2, 3, 4] It is the most common closed tendon injury seen in athletes,
though it is also common in nonathletes after "innocent" trauma.
Mallet finger has also been referred to as drop, hammer, or baseball finger
(though baseball accounts for only a small percentage of such injuries).
