Abstract
En 中文
Catatonia is a severe neuropsychiatric syndrome characterized by profound state-related abnormalities in sensorimotor and cognitive-behavioral function. Overt catatonia is usually successfully treated with benzodiazepines or electroconvulsive therapy, but preliminary studies indicate that subtle cognitive and sensorimotor deficits may persist. However, the literature characterizing these deficits has been inconsistent and limited by low sample sizes. Furthermore, no studies have been conducted in the low- and middle-income setting, where catatonia may be more prevalent.
