Saccadic intrusions and oscillations.
نویسندگان
چکیده
There are a number of different types of involuntary saccadic eye movements which differ from normal saccades in that they take the fovea away from its target. This article presents a classification and description of these abnormal eye movements and indicates how they may be used to increase the precision of neurologic diagnosis.

Nystagmus, Saccadic Intrusions/Oscillations, and Oscillopsia
Understanding the pathophysiology of ocular oscillations necessitates differentia tion between those involving only the slow system and those that are purely sac cadic. Oscillations containing both saccades and slow phases require identification of both the causative phase (i. e. , that which takes the eyes away from their in tended direction) and the corrective phase. Modem recording method...
متن کاملNystagmus and Other Ocular Motor Oscillations and Intrusions
If one is to understand the pathophysiology of ocular oscillations it is imperative to distinguish between those involving only the slow system and those that are purely saccadic. Oscillations containing both saccades and slow phases require identification of the causative phase (i.e., that which takes the eyes away from their intended direction) and the corrective phase. Modem methods of recor...
متن کاملSaccadic Pathology and Plasticity
In order to completely characterize a saccade, its metrics (accuracy), trajec tory (peak velocity, duration, over/undershoot, multiple/single and discrete de celerations) and timing (latency) need to be described. This is true for normal as well as pathological saccades and fast phases of nystagmus. In addition, sac cadic pathology includes various types of saccadic intrusions and oscillatio...
متن کاملOcular-Motor Profile and Effects of Memantine in a Familial Form of Adult Cerebellar Ataxia with Slow Saccades and Square Wave Saccadic Intrusions
Fixation instability due to saccadic intrusions is a feature of autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxias, and includes square wave intrusions (SWI) and macrosaccadic oscillations (MSO). A recent report suggested that the non-competitive antagonist of NMDA receptors, memantine, could decrease MSO and improve fixation in patients with spinocerebellar ataxia with saccadic intrusions (SCASI). We...
متن کامل10. Nystagmus and other ocular motor oscillations and intrusions
In Volume 1 , this chapter ( 1 ) contained a definition and at least one relevant reference for each type of nystagmus, saccadic oscillation or saccadic intrusion. Table 1 lists the 41 different types of nystagmus along with 64 other terms found in the l iterature to describe them ; similarly, Table 2 lists the 1 6 saccadic oscilla tions and intrusions with 27 other terms found in the literatu...
