Movement disorders can be defined as the abnormality of the speed and form of body movements. Although movement disorders often occur chronically, they can sometimes develop acutely or sub-acutely, and some can be fatal if not diagnosed and treated early. Here, emergencies in movement disorders are discussed under two main headings, as emergencies related to hyperkinetic movement disorders and emergencies related to hypokinetic movement disorders. This review draws attention to the importance of that accurate diagnosis and early treatment can be life-saving in emergencies in movement disorders. It also provides recommendations for diagnosis and therapy.
