Overview

  • How to Perform

  • Ask the patient to write a sentence on a piece of paper.
  • Interpretation

  • Classically, patients with Parkinsonism will start writing a sentence normally, and during the sentence their writing will become smaller and smaller, due to bradykinesia and hypokinesia.
