Abstract

Dyspraxia consists of a partial loss of the ability to perform purposeful or skilled motor acts in the absence of paralysis, sensory loss, abnormal posture or tone, abnormal involuntary movements, incoordination, poor comprehension, or inattention [1]. The existence of dyspraxia is usually tested by having the patient perform some motor act on command or by imitation.
