Also known as hyperkinesis

Hyperkinesia refers to an increase in muscular activity that can result in excessive abnormal movements, excessive normal movements, or a combination of both. Hyperkinesia is a state of excessive restlessness which is featured in a large variety of disorders that affect the ability to control motor movement, such as Huntington's disease. It is the opposite of hypokinesia, which refers to decreased bodily movement, as commonly manifested in Parkinson's disease.

Motorisk hyperaktivitet eller hyperkinesi, är en form av dyskinesi som yttrar sig i att kroppen rör sig ovanligt mycket, som regel av psykiska skäl eller till följd av att ett organ är dysfunktionellt. Motorisk hyperaktivitet kan vara ett symtom på kataton schizofreni, bipolär sjukdom (under manifasen), och hyperaktivitetsstörningar (ADHD, ADD med mera). Autonom hyperaktivitet kan som motsats ske under sömn och tyda på nattskräck och mardrömmar. Diagnosen förebådade senare symptomdiagnoser som MBD, DAMP och den samtida ADHD.
