{{SK}} impaired coordination; lack of coordination
==Overview==
'''Incoordination''' a lack of normal adjustment of muscular action so that the intended movement of the limb or other part is not made smoothly and harmoniously, and does not accurately achieve its objective.
 
==Causes==
See the causes of [[ataxia]].
 
==Differentiating Incoordination From Other Diseases==
If the abnormality is [[hypermetric]], the condition is referred to as [[ataxia]]. If it is inclined to [[weakness]], e.g. knuckling at the turn, stumbling, failure to flex limbs properly, or to misdirection as in a proprioceptive deficit, it is called incoordination.
