Overview
Physical examination of ADEM may reveal positive findings in different parts of the nervous system namely, the cerebral cortex, brainstem, cranial nerves and the sensory and motor tracts. Respiratory failure may prove fatal in some cases.
Physical Examination
Nervous system[1][2]
- Pyramidal signs : Babinski's sign, spasticity, hypertonia, hyperreflexia
- Dystonia
- Parkinsonism
- Nystagmus
- Bilateral optic neuritis (infrequent in adult ADEM[3])
- Complete transverse myelitis
Respiratory system
