Abstract
Stereotypic movements are repetitive patterns of movement with certain peculiar features that make them especially interesting. Their physiopathology and their relationship with the neurobehavioural disorders they are frequently associated with are unknown. In this paper our aim is to offer a simple analysis of their dominant characteristics, their differentiation from other processes and a hypothesis of the properties of stereotypic movements, which could all set the foundations for research work into their physiopathology.
Resumen
Las estereotipias son patrones repetitivos del movimiento con unas peculiaridades que las hacen especialmente interesantes. Su fisiopatología, así como su relación con trastornos neuroconductuales, a los que frecuentemente se asocian, se desconocen. En este trabajo se pretende realizar un sencillo análisis de sus características dominantes, mostrar sus diferencias con otros procesos y presentar hipótesis, basadas en sus propiedades, que podrían constituir las bases para una investigación acerca de su fisiopatología.
