Entry term(s) apraxia ideatoria
apraxia para vestirse
dispraxia
Scope note: Grupo de trastornos cognitivos caracterizados por la incapacidad para realizar habilidades que se realizaban previamente y que no puede atribuirse a deficiencias de la función motora o sensorial. Los dos subtipos principales son la ideomotora (ver APRAXIA IDEOMOTORA) y la apraxia ideatoria, que se refiere a la pérdida de la capacidad para formular mentalmente procesos involucrados en la ejecución de una acción. Por ejemplo, la apraxia para vestirse puede proceder de la incapacidad para formular mentalmente el acto de colocarse las ropas sobre el cuerpo. Las apraxias se asocian generalmente con lesiones del LÓBULO PARIETAL dominante y de la circunvolución supramarginal. (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp56-7)

Scope note: A group of cognitive disorders characterized by the inability to perform previously learned skills that cannot be attributed to deficits of motor or sensory function. The two major subtypes of this condition are ideomotor (see APRAXIA, IDEOMOTOR) and ideational apraxia, which refers to loss of the ability to mentally formulate the processes involved with performing an action. For example, dressing apraxia may result from an inability to mentally formulate the act of placing clothes on the body. Apraxias are generally associated with lesions of the dominant PARIETAL LOBE and supramarginal gyrus. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp56-7)
