Clinical presentation of orthostatic tremor (OT) may be misleading and simply perceived by a postural instability such as in several peripheral neuropathies. In addition, peripheral neuropathies represent the leading cause of pathologies associated with OT. Among patients referred for an electroneuromyogram (ENMG) for peripheral neuropathy and presenting with postural unsteadiness, OT assessment will be systematically performed. Demographic, clinical and polygraphy characteristics of these patients will be analyzed and prevalence of OT in the general population of peripheral neuropathies will be assessed.
Among patients who will be referred for ENMG and exploration of a neuropathy, orthostatic tremor will be investigated systematically.
