Summary
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a debilitating movement disorder that manifests as involuntary, repetitive movements, often of the face, tongue, and extremities. These symptoms frequently result from prolonged use of antipsychotic medications, particularly in patients being treated for schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depressive disorder. Accurate and routine assessment of TD is critical to prevent symptom progression and improve patient outcomes. The Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) is a widely accepted, gold-standard tool used to detect and measure the severity of involuntary movements. AIMS enables clinicians to detect involuntary movements early and track the disorder's progression, facilitating timely intervention and individualized treatment plans.
In this PsychTalk podcast/webcast episode, Dr. Gregory Mattingly and Dr. Vladimir Maletic delve into the complexities of diagnosing and managing tardive dyskinesia (TD), emphasizing evidence-based strategies to improve patient outcomes. They discuss the importance of using the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS), a standardized and validated tool, for regular TD assessment. AIMS enables clinicians to detect involuntary movements early and track the disorder's progression, facilitating timely intervention and individualized treatment plans.
Learning Objective
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
- Explore strategies to simplify management and optimally improve outcomes for patients with TD
