We also got taught the mnemonic: 'Vanish DDT' which stands for vertigo, ataxia, nystagmus, intention tremor, staccato speech, hypotonia, dysmetria, dysdiadochokinesia and titubation.
Scanning speech, nystagmus (fast phase towards lesion), dysmetria (index to nose and finger to nose test), arm rebound test, dysdiadochokinesia, pendular knee jerk, titubation, cerebellar gait (broad stand, staggering, towards lesion). Romberg unrelated (just proprioception altered).
I would like to thank this great Dr .. for sure he is great in teaching aswell ,, tomoroow am taking an osce exam just wanna refresh just I came across it first time to get all of cerebellar sign and symtpoms this way although I used to master it when I was student very will done he is so confident and relax and takes things by reasoning I look around he is Dr Verghees ,, thank u so much
This doctor nailed it , first watch without expensive and time consuming office visits! Saw 7 different "professional " doctors ( in France!), totally missed diagnosis!! Well...?
I really like this doctor's presentation. On the other hand . . . does every video like this need a musical soundtrack? Now I have to process not only speech, sights, the sounds of some of the movements, the implications and connections of what's being described, and some new relevant information-but also music? This is what my brain needs?
Very thankful for quality resources like this. Thank you for helping me to understand the clinical picture that I will one day have to construct once I manage to make it past the first two years of nothing but books.
The cerebellar atropy gets more and more worse with time. My dad is suffering from it since last eight years. Could you please suggest any medicine or treatment therapy to control it? Video on it would be very helpful for such patients worldwide.
Reminds me of good old days during the Internal medicine rotation at Trichur Medical College, India where our brilliant but unassuming teachers demonstrated physical exam skills to us at the bedside every single day. Thank you so much, Dr. Verghese for bringing this art back to medicine. Is there a way we can extend this to pediatric practice?
Nice video, thanks. I think it is better to change the depth of your finger in relation to the patient (near then far from the patient) when testing for dysmetria rather than changing the direction of your finger. The idea of finger-nose testing is to see if the patient is judging well the distance (depth) of the object (your finger), so in case of cerebellar disease, the patient will past-point, meaning he/she will past point the depth of your finger.
Our baby at 2 years old is diagnosed of Cerebellar Ataxia. We found it very difficult to do the therapy considering his age. He used to be a very happy and energetic kid. Hope you can help us in his condition. A little advise and prayers will do.
Very informative! My nursing assessment text says a positive Romberg test is seen with vestibular dysfunction and cerebellar disorders. It does not go into detail unfortunately.
thank you for sharing you knowledge.....I would love your review of Dr. Titus Chiu's book and how you feel about post concussion syndromes. I had a head injury before I was married. It was not considered a problem until I began exhibiting acute mood changes and experienced seizure type acitivity.
Ataxia can too often be linked only to the cerebellum and so the confusion is made. It is SENSORY ataxia (peripheral neuropathy) which can be indicate with a positive Romberg test... nice mention :)
I enjoyed the video it's very instructive but I have a remark: the cerebellar patient is already swaying while his eyes are open but it doesn't get worse when he closes his eyes

What a pleasant doctor. He appears gentel, aware & communicative. Thanks for sharing brilliant.
Very pleasant Doctor, like his accent as well. Like a cross between English & American.

It's good
Thanks

🤣🤣🤣
Thankss aLot!
I love the instructional videos given by Dr. Abraham Verghese. Such a great teacher, and very relaxing to listen to.
I have seen a lot of people do that rapid alternating movement test, and this guy is, by a longshot, the fastest.
Such a pleasant Doctor, I could listen to him speak for hours!
2:43 I've trained for this my entire life
Drummer? Lol
I'm weak! lol
One of the best medical videos I've seen.
This Doctor exudes wisdom. I've not seen anything like it before.
I envy your students for having such a great teacher ! This video is perfect thank you very much
You're beautiful too

Thank you so much Stanford for even posting great material like this. I love watching it!
WoW. 5 millions times worth of information in just 5 minutes. Thank you sir.

Thanks Dr. Verghese! I’ m in love with physical exam after your youtube classes.
Really helpful video, especially regarding clarification of the Rhomberg test and explanation of abnormal signs. Thank you Dr Verghese.
Thank you very much Doctor. Indeed it is a very useful video about the signs and symptoms of Cerebellar lesion.
thank you!!!

These videos are fantastic. Thank you
Very clear explanation and demonstration
Very informative, thanks to Dr Abraham Verghese 🙏🙏
The best video to understand cerebellar syndrome !

Great video. My exam is tomorrow. This helped a lot
Thank you so much! It helped a lot for my Biology test!
Thank you for the mention of the differiantial test technique.
Excellent video! Will go through all the uploads now
Sir, u r a real professor
I believe the romberg test also checks the vestibular system and not only the posterior columns.
DocHemulin hey
wonderful presentation
You are a very good Doctor and teacher👍👍
the best channel, love all your content
Legendary explanation. One of the best I’ve seen!
Love the end soundtrack too!!
You are so talented and a fantastic teacher!! Thank you so much :) I have subscribed and am looking forward to more videos!
Thanks for the clarity ! Also thanks that Romberg is meaningless for Cerebellar examination.
Very informative! My nursing assessment text says a positive Romberg test is seen with vestibular dysfunction and cerebellar disorders. It does not go into detail unfortunately.
Very informative! Brilliant!!

Like in Friedreich's Ataxia. Thank yo very much Dr, very informative.
Ataxia can too often be linked only to the cerebellum and so the confusion is made. It is SENSORY ataxia (peripheral neuropathy) which can be indicate with a positive Romberg test... nice mention :)
Simple and clear class

I take my good health for granted. I never knew so many things could go wrong in this old human body.
I enjoyed the video it's very instructive but I have a remark: the cerebellar patient is already swaying while his eyes are open but it doesn't get worse when he closes his eyes
