“…Careful assessment of these features may help in distinguishing functional tremor from other common diseases presenting with tremor including ET and PD ( 152 ). Electrophysiological assessment, using a scoring system, may provide additional information to support the diagnosis of functional tremor ( 150 , 154 ). However, it needs to be emphasized that the positive signs on the clinical examination mentioned above are the key to the diagnosis of functional tremor.…”

“…Physical examination findings include variability in frequency and distribution, distractibility with cognitive and motor tasks, entrainability, and suggestibility ( Hallett, 2016 ). Electrophysiologic studies (ES), including surface electromyography (sEMG) and EEG backaveraging, are occasionally needed to support the diagnosis, especially for functional tremor and myoclonus ( Chen and Chen, 2020 ). Thus, ES has been included in the most recent operational criteria for FMD, wherein cases with evidence from ES supportive of a diagnosis of FMD are considered “laboratory-supported definite” ( Gupta and Lang, 2009 ).…”

“…Electrophysiological investigations are widely used in the diagnosis of hyperkinetic movement disorders, most notably tremor and myoclonus, 1,2 where they may be helpful in identifying patients with functional hyperkinetic movement disorders. Electromyography, which is a commonly available modality, is perhaps the least challenging of the electrophysiological techniques in terms of data acquisition.…”
