Bradykinesia (Î²ÏÎ±Î´ÏÏ bradys, slow, ÎºÎ¯Î½Î·ÏÎ¹Ï kinÄsis, motion) Characterized by slowness of movement, it occurs in Parkinson's disease and other disorders of the basal ganglia. Rather than being a slowness in initiation (akinesia), bradykinesia describes a slowness in the execution of movement.
Providing a common, quantitative measure for bradykinesia will greatly aid researchers in the development, evaluation, and optimization of novel pharmaceutical and DBS treatments for bradykinesia associated with PD and other movement disorders.
