Substance abuseAny other underlying medical conditions Can experience a combination of different tics OR Frequency of tics does not indicate severity of TS This is because many of the tics are intermittent Motor & vocal tics occur several times a day for TS is based on whether the tics are simple, complex, or a combination of the two Severity & frequency of tics is different for each child Onset of phonic tics occurs much later than motor tics Some tics barely noticeableSome tics occur 30-100 repetitions in a minute 60% of all cases may have a hereditary link Autosomal dominant trait (Gelmann & Selekman, 2006) The earlier a child is affected, the more severe the Males are 4 times as likely to exhibit symptoms than Pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with streptococcal infections (PANDAS) Neurotransmitter responsible for transmitting information Chronic group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal infections Decreases brain activity in the basal ganglia, which then Abnormal levels trigger the development of tics decreases the production & use of dopamine (Cavanna, Servo, Monaco, & Robertson, 2009).
Present with an abrupt onset of motor tics that occurs with strep infectionContinued periods of remission & exacerbation 90% of children diagnosed with TS have one or 10-20% of school age children have transient motor Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) Anxiety disordersBehavioral/emotional problems 2-12% of children diagnosed with ADHD have TS 50% of children who develop TS early in life will outgrow the tics by age 18 (Shapiro, 2002) These children often experience an increase in tics Related to brain maturation after pubescence Alternative expression of the TS gene, which links these two conditions together (Gaze et al, 2006) ADHD & OCD will continue with ticsBased on severity of co-morbid conditions Tics may increase during periods of excitement, Some children will show an increase in tics due to no Present for one year with no tic-free periods greater than 3 monthsTics may decrease during periods of sleepIncreased fidgeting Difficulty concentrating 4 main components of treatment for tics associated Treatment depends on severity of tics & any 2.
