Which are common hyperkinetic movement disorders? (Select all that apply.)
a. Dystonia
b. Essential tremor
c. Parkinson's disease
d. Progressive supranuclear palsy
e. Tourette's syndrome - CORRECT ANSWER-ANS: A, B, E
Dystonia, essential tremor, and Tourette's are hyperkinetic disorders.
Parkinson's disease and progressive supranuclear palsy are
hypokinetic disorders.

Visual disturbances and eye pain may be the only presenting symptoms and
should be investigated. The MRI is the gold standard for diagnosis of multiple
sclerosis (MS). The other tests may be performed if the diagnosis is unclear or
if MRI is not readily available.

A primary care provider suspects Parkinson's disease (PD) in a patient.
Which tests may be performed to diagnose this disorder?

c. Presence of 2 cardinal signs which improve with levodopa
d. Serum creatine phosphokinase levels - CORRECT ANSWER-ANS: C
The diagnosis of idiopathic PD is made based on clinical presentation and
examination findings with 2 of 3 cardinal manifestations present which
