How do we diagnose stereotypic movement disorder?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Stereotypies: The best way to diagnose is to observe. Stereotypic movements defined as involuntary, coordinated, repetitive, often rhythmic, nonreflexive, and occur in the same fashion, must be present for at least 4 wks and interfere with normal activity.
