| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the usefulness of the finger-tapping test as clinical evaluation of qualitative aspects of coordination movement by investigating outcome index of finger-tapping movement.
Study 1: 29 healthy volunteers were recruited in this study and they performed purdue pegboard test and tapping movement. Then correlation between movement time of tapping movement and score of purdue pegboard test were calculated. Study 2: We studied intraoperative characteristic motor symptom, namely disturbance of coordination movement, of patients with brain tumor located in the supplementary motor area. This study demonstrated that the tapping movement may be useful clinical evaluation of qualitative aspects of coordination movement, namely timing, grading, and placing.
