Mental Health -- Neuropsychiatry Clinic
Information on assessment and management strategies for uncomplicated tourette syndrome. Treatment may include psychology, occupational therapy, Psychoeducation, medication, and community resources. From the Neuropsychiatry Clinic at the Children's and Women's Health Centre of British Columbia.
http://www.cw.bc.ca/mentalhealth/srvnp2.asp

Extractions: Some parts of the assessment are specific to tics and Tourette syndrome. The clinician will obtain a detailed history of the child's history of motor and vocal tics. It is important to determine the nature of the tics, their severity, the timing of the tics, and what factors make the tics better or worse. It is not the presence or absence of the tics themselves which determines the need for medication, but rather the extent of actual impairment. Therefore a major focus of the assessment is obtaining a careful evaluation of how the tics are impacting on the child's psychological, social, and academic growth. Children with Tourette syndrome or multiple tics may sometimes have other types of co-occurring problems such as difficulties with attention, getting along with other children, poor self esteem, trouble sleeping, severe tantrums, or sensitivity to touch or sound. The assessment will therefore inquire about many other sorts of behavioral difficulties apart from tics to determine whether or not there are problems in any of these other areas.

Extractions: Watching ice hockey and practicing with his band are Luke's favorite things to do. But when Luke goes someplace new, he often has to deal with stares and weird looks from strangers because he sometimes shouts unexpectedly or blinks his eyes hard. To people who don't know that these tics are symptoms of Luke's Tourette syndrome, he looks like he's in pain or needs help. Tics are sudden, repetitive movements or sounds that some people make, seemingly without realizing it. Tics are actually more common in teens than you might think. You may know someone who has either a motor tic (sudden, apparently uncontrollable movements like exaggerated blinking of the eyes) or a vocal tic (such as when a person repeatedly clears his or her throat). Many people have tics that go away in less than a year or mild tics that don't interfere with their lives. But in some people, tics are more severe or long lasting. If a person has tics for more than a year, doctors call this a chronic tic disorder . In some cases, these tics can be part of a condition called Tourette (pronounced: tuh-

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/medical_notes/3067443.stm

Extractions: Tourette Syndrome is a neurological disorder Tourette Syndrome (TS) is widely associated with inappropriate swearing in public. In fact, it is a complex and debilitating neurological disorder which is estimated to affect about 1% of the population. What are the symptoms of Tourette Syndrome? The most common symptom are repetitive, rapid, sudden movements called tics. Tics, which can be verbal or physical, come in a broad range of types. They are defined in two broad categories: In relatively rare instances, people with TS may bite or hit themselves. There is no one single pattern of symptoms. Some people have very mild symptoms, whereas for others the symptoms may be very severe. By and large, these symptoms are outside the control of the sufferer.
Tourette Syndrome
Information about the symptoms of Tourette and how to get help for your child. From KidsHealth.
http://www.kidshealth.org/parent/medical/brain/tourette.html

Extractions: Stacy, a 36-year-old mother of four youngsters, thought she was losing her mind. At age 2, one of her daughters started making clicking sounds with her mouth. She repeated what her mother said. Every few steps, she jumped. Then there was the impulsiveness. "She would touch or do something without looking at me for approval," Stacy says. Finding Answers "I thought maybe I was crazy," Stacy says. "I went through eight doctors. They told me, 'She'll grow out of it.' I knew she wasn't in control, and I told them that. But nobody would listen to me." Finally, specialists told her the child had Tourette syndrome (TS), a condition of the nervous system. The child's repetitive behaviors were identified as tics, involuntary movements and vocalizations. Tourette syndrome also may be accompanied by attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or obsessive-compulsive disorder , as was the case with Stacy's daughter. Unfortunately, Stacy's odyssey isn't unusual. "It's common for the symptoms to be thought of as something else - a blink as a vision problem, a sniff as an allergy," says Marianne Mercugliano, MD, a developmental pediatrician.

Tourette Syndrome - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tourette_syndrome

Extractions: Tourette syndrome Tourette's syndrome, Tourette Spectrum (TS), Tourette's disorder , or Gilles de la Tourette syndrome neurological or neurochemical disorder characterized by tics echolalia (the urge to repeat words spoken by someone else after being heard by the person with the disorder), palilalia (the urge to repeat one's own previously spoken words), lexilalia (the urge to repeat words after reading them) and, most controversially, coprolalia (the spontaneous utterance of socially objectionable words, such as obscenities and racial or ethnic slurs). The term "involuntary" used to describe TS tics is a source of confusion since it is known that most people with TS do have some control over the symptoms. What is recognized is that the control which can be exerted from seconds to hours at a time may merely postpone more severe outbursts of symptoms. Tics are experienced as irresistible as the urge to sneeze and must eventually be expressed. People with TS often seek a secluded spot to release their symptoms after delaying them in school or at work. Typically, tics increase as a result of tension or stress (but are not caused by stress ) and decrease with relaxation or concentration on an absorbing task.
