Abstract

Background

Psychogenic tremor is the most common psychogenic movement disorder. It has characteristic clinical features that can help distinguish it from other tremor disorders. There is no diagnostic gold standard and the diagnosis is based primarily on clinical history and examination. Despite proposed diagnostic criteria, the diagnosis of psychogenic tremor can be challenging. While there are numerous studies evaluating psychogenic tremor in the literature, there are no publications that provide a video/visual guide that demonstrate the clinical characteristics of psychogenic tremor. Educating clinicians about psychogenic tremor will hopefully lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment.

Methods

We selected videos from the database at the Parkinson’s Disease Center and Movement Disorders Clinic at Baylor College of Medicine that illustrate classic findings supporting the diagnosis of psychogenic tremor.

Results

We include 10 clinical vignettes with accompanying videos that highlight characteristic clinical signs of psychogenic tremor including distractibility, variability, entrainability, suggestibility, and coherence.

Discussion

Psychogenic tremor should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with tremor, particularly if it is of abrupt onset, intermittent, variable and not congruous with organic tremor. The diagnosis of psychogenic tremor, however, should not be simply based on exclusion of organic tremor, such as essential, parkinsonian, or cerebellar tremor, but on positive criteria demonstrating characteristic features. Early recognition and management are critical for good long-term outcome.

<title>Introduction</title>
<p>Psychogenic movement disorders (PMDs) are increasingly recognized as a cause of disability, but the diagnosis is still made largely at tertiary care movement disorders centers. The reported prevalence of PMDs varies between 2% and 20% based on the definition and clinical setting.
<xref rid="b01" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
While PMDs are most common in young individuals, particularly women, the gender difference is less evident in children.
<xref rid="b02" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
Psychogenic tremor (PT) is the most common PMD, accounting for approximately 50% of cases. While diagnostic criteria for PMDs, such as the Fahn–Williams
<xref rid="b03" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
and Shill–Gerber,
<xref rid="b04" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
have been proposed, the diagnosis can be challenging, particularly for a non-neurologist or even a movement disorder novice. Indeed, the inter-rater agreement on diagnosis is poor even amongst movement disorder specialists.
<xref rid="b05" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
There is no diagnostic gold standard and the diagnosis is primarily based on clinical history and examination.</p>
<p>The purpose of this review is to discuss and demonstrate clinical features of PT through clinical vignettes and accompanying videos. This is the first published visual guide to psychogenic tremor highlighting most of its characteristic clinical features. While no one feature is diagnostic, taken together these features can help clinicians arrive at a diagnosis of PT and avoid unnecessary testing or treatment.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s2">
<title>Pathophysiology</title>
<p>The pathophysiology of PT is poorly understood, although psychological stressors have been usually implicated. Few studies, however, have evaluated the role of psychological stressors in PMDs. One study compared the role of previous life stress in patients with PMDs to healthy controls and patients with focal hand dystonia.
<xref rid="b06" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
Patients with PMDs reported higher rates of childhood trauma, especially physical neglect and emotional abuse, and fear associated with traumatic events. However, not all patients with PMDs report a history of life trauma. A recent study evaluated the association of stressful physical events preceding PMDs in 50 subjects.
<xref rid="b07" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
Eighty percent of subjects reported a physical event preceding the onset of PMDs and 38% reported symptoms of a panic attack associated with the event. The reported preceding physical events included injuries, infections, neurological disorders, pain, surgery, and vasovagal syncope. These physical events may provide sensory triggers for the subsequent PMDs.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s3">
<title>Clinical history</title>
<p>When evaluating a patient with possible PT, the history is as important as the physical examination.
<xref rid="b08" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
PT often has an abrupt onset with rapid progression to maximum severity. Tremor may be episodic with spontaneous remissions in between episodes. Episodes in one limb may spontaneously resolve and then recur in another part of the body. Patients with PMDs have often previously consulted many medical professionals, including neurologists, who have incorrectly diagnosed the patient with various neurological disorders. We estimate that the time from onset of PT to evaluation by a movement disorders specialist at The Parkinson’s Disease Center and Movement Disorders Clinic at Baylor College of Medicine is an average of 2–3 years, although in one of our prior series some patients had symptoms up to 14 years prior to our evaluation.
<xref rid="b09" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
Patients with PT and other PMDs often have other unexplained somatic complaints such as fibromyalgia, atypical chest pain, and irritable bowel syndrome.
<xref rid="b10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
Some may have been previously diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, Lyme disease, or other medical conditions. There is often extensive surgical history of elective or “emergency” procedures. Many patients with PT are allied health care professionals or are somehow connected to the medical profession (e.g., employees of medical insurance companies). Prior history of physical or sexual abuse should be carefully explored. Enquiring about social history is important in order to understand potential psychological stressors at work or at home. Although history of emotional or physical stress may support a diagnosis of PT, it is important to keep in mind that patients with organic disease may have a prior history of stress. Furthermore, some patients may have psychogenic overlay, or embellishment, to their organic tremor. Thus presence of an organic neurological disorder does not exclude the diagnosis of a PMD and vice versa as both can co-exist.</p>

<p>In the following section we will discuss clinical features of PT. Some of these features may be seen in other tremor disorders, other PMDs, or other psychogenic, also referred to as functional or conversion, disorders.
<xref rid="b11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
The overall clinical picture including history and examination needs to be taken into consideration when making a diagnosis, as no one clinical finding is diagnostic.</p>
<p>The examination should focus on the presence of features that support the diagnosis of PT (

<title>Distractibility</title>
<p>Distractibility refers to the change in tremor amplitude, direction or quality, usually a decrease or cessation of tremor, when volitionally performing other tasks. For example, when speaking to the patient obtaining the history, tremor may be minimal. Asking the patient to perform other tasks, such as finger tapping with the contralateral limb or performing mental tasks such as reciting the months of the year backward, may distract the patient and the tremor in the affected hand changes frequency, amplitude or character. In order to enhance the distractibility the patient may be asked to perform the finger movements in a complicated order (e.g., second, fifth, and third finger).</p>

<title>Variability</title>
<p>Tremor variability can present as a change in frequency, amplitude, or direction, characteristic of PT. Organic tremor, however, can have variable amplitude often increasing with anxiety. Furthermore, some organic tremor such as the head tremor in patients with essential tremor or cervical dystonia may be quite irregular in rhythm and may change direction (e.g., changing from vertical to horizontal) and does not necessarily indicate PT.</p>

<p>Tremor may also be entrainable, i.e., brought into a specific rhythm.

<title>Discussion</title>
<p>The primary aim of this video guide is to use illustrative cases to demonstrate features of PT that help to differentiate this PMD from other movement disorders.</p>
<p>In one study of 127 patients with PT, the following clinical features were considered to be characteristic of PT: abrupt onset (78.7%), distractibility (72.4%), variable amplitude and frequency (62.2%), intermittent occurrence (35.4%), inconsistent movement (29.9%), and variable direction (17.3%).
<xref rid="b09" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
To the extent that essential tremor is often considered in the differential of PT, a study designed to determine which features most reliably differentiate these two tremors enrolled 45 subjects with essential tremor (N = 33) or PT (N = 12) who were videotaped according to standardized protocol and were then reviewed by a rater who was “blinded” to the diagnosis.
<xref rid="b12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
The study found that compared with essential tremor, PT subjects were significantly more likely to have a sudden onset of their tremor (66.7% vs. 9.1%, p = 0.03), spontaneous remissions (69.2% vs. 15.2%, p = 0.03), and a shorter duration of tremor (7.8 ± 4.0 vs. 28.5 ±2.9 years, p = 0.001). As expected, family history of tremor was significantly more common in the essential tremor group (16.7% vs. 75.8%, p = 0.001). Compared with essential tremor, a greater proportion of subjects with PT were more likely to demonstrate a moderate-to-marked degree of distractibility with alternate finger tapping (72.7% vs. 26.7%, p = 0.01) and mental concentration on serial sevens (58.3% vs. 15.6%, p = 0.01). Furthermore, suggestibility with a tuning fork (41.7 vs. 12.1%, p = 0.04) was more common in patients with PT than essential tremor.</p>
<p>Another tremor that is often considered in the differential diagnosis of PT is parkinsonian tremor, as many patients consciously or subconsciously attribute their tremor to “Parkinson’s disease”. Based on a study of 32 patients with psychogenic parkinsonism, patients with this type of PMD were typically found to exhibit an abrupt onset of “shaking”, often in response to some stressful event, followed by progressive slowness and early disability.
<xref rid="b13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
On examination the tremor was easily distractible and, instead of decrementing amplitude when performing repetitive movements typically present in patients with Parkinson’s disease, the patients with psychogenic parkinsonism had no decrement when performing rapid succession movements. Furthermore, patients with psychogenic parkinsonism often actively resisted passive movement by the examiner without cogwheel rigidity, typically present in patients with Parkinson’s disease. In addition, many patients with psychogenic parkinsonism have “give-way” weakness, stuttering speech, bizarre gait, and a variety of behavioral, sexual, and other motor and non-motor symptoms that are not congruent with typical Parkinson’s disease. Their symptoms may respond to a powerful suggestion or carbidopa placebo and they do not develop levodopa-related motor complications.
<xref rid="b13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
Another study showed that tremor amplitude decreased with additional load in parkinsonian tremor but increased in PT.
<xref rid="b14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
</p>
<p>In addition to findings typical of PT mentioned above, patients with PT may have other non-physiologic neurologic symptoms and signs that support the diagnosis of PMD. For example, patients may have excessive startle to minimal sensory stimuli, non-anatomical sensory findings such as splitting the midline, or differences in perceiving vibration on opposite sides of the forehead. Convergence spasm, consisting of ocular convergence, miosis, and accommodation associated with dysconjugate gaze is often associated with PMD.
<xref rid="b15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
There may be give-way weakness or inconsistent patterns of weakness (e.g., apparent weakness of ankle flexion and extension on confrontational testing, but normal heel and toe walking without foot drop while ambulating), or a Hoover sign.
<xref rid="b16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
Patients with PMDs may have a bizarre gait, such as astasia–abasia, contorting their bodies from side-to-side while walking but still maintaining balance. When testing postural instability they may have an exaggerated loss of balance to a minimal pull without an actual fall. The examiner should take time to elicit these additional signs as they collectively support the diagnosis of PT.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s6">
<title>Ancillary testing</title>
<p>Neurophysiologic testing in patients with PT and other PMDs is generally limited to academic centers and mainly used for research purposes. A variety of tests using an accelerometer, electromyography (EMG), electroencephalography, and other instruments may be employed to demonstrate specific tremor patterns suggesting PT.
<xref rid="b17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
These tests provide more objective and quantitative measures of tremor, including variability, entrainment, and coherence. The coherence entrainment test involves accelerometers and surface EMG to evaluate for tremor entrainment to the frequency of motor tasks performed with the opposite limb.
<xref rid="b18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
One study evaluated this test in 35 patients in an attempt to distinguish between PT, dystonic tremor, and normal controls.
<xref rid="b18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
The coherence entrainment test demonstrated high specificity and sensitivity for distinguishing PT from dystonic tremor and other organic tremors. In those with a clinically definite diagnosis, coherence entrainment was demonstrated in PT patients but not in those with organic tremor. Furthermore, clinically definite PT patients demonstrated coherence of tremor frequency in different limbs compared to those with organic tremor who did not. Tremor coherence between limbs, however, is not seen in all PT patients and one study found tremor coherence in only about 50% of PT patients.
<xref rid="b19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
The ballistic movement test uses accelerometers and surface EMG to measure the change in tremor when performing a ballistic movement with the opposite hand in response to a visual cue. PT patients demonstrate a transient reduction in amplitude or arrest in tremor when performing a sudden movement with the contralateral arm.
<xref rid="b20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>
The dual task interference measures the reaction time to perform a quick action with the opposite limb. PT patients demonstrate a delay in performing a simple reaction time task with the contralateral limb.
<xref rid="b21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
Loading the limb with weight and using accelerometers to measure tremor amplitude can also help distinguish PT from organic tremor. Loading the limb tends to increase tremor amplitude in PT, whereas the tremor amplitude decreases in organic tremor with loading.
<xref rid="b14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
The co-activation sign in PT demonstrated by EMG consists of a tonic contraction of antagonist muscles at the onset of tremor and lasts approximately 300 ms.
<xref rid="b14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
One study that employed EMG recording found that the co-activation sign and absent finger tremor were the most consistent features that separated psychogenic from organic tremor.
<xref rid="b14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
</p>
<p>These physiological tests may be helpful in differentiating between patients with PT and organic tremor, although they lack high specificity and sensitivity for a diagnosis of PT.
<xref rid="b22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
True entrainment, while a useful clinical sign when present, is actually quite rare in PT,
<xref rid="b12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,
<xref rid="b22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
whereas variability in tremor frequency is much more common. Ancillary testing, while usually not essential for the diagnosis, can provide objective evidence and help convey the diagnosis to a patient.</p>
<p>Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), using a ligand that binds to the presynaptic striatal dopamine transporter (DAT), can be used to measure presynaptic neuronal degeneration as seen in Parkinson’s disease.
<xref rid="b23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
The DAT-SPECT can be helpful along with neurophysiologic testing to distinguish psychogenic parkinsonism from Parkinson’s disease.
<xref rid="b24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
A normal DAT-SPECT, however, does not distinguish psychogenic parkinsonism from other organic parkinsonian disorders such as drug-induced parkinsonism and vascular parkinsonism as these latter diseases also have a normal DAT-SPECT.</p>
</sec>
<sec sec-type="conclusions" id="s7">
<title>Conclusion</title>
<p>An early and correct diagnosis of PT is important, as it should lead to prompt treatment and improve the long-term prognosis. The diagnosis is not only based on exclusion of organic causes, but on clinical features characteristic of PT. Neurophysiological studies, although sometimes helpful in difficult cases, are rarely needed to support the diagnosis of PT. Further research into the mechanisms of PT as well as studies evaluating treatment strategies are needed to advance our understanding of this PMD and ultimately improve care for this challenging group of patients.</p>
