Dressing apraxia is a syndrome of the right (incorrectly defined as minor) hemisphere, indicating the incapacity of effectuating the acts of dressing correctly (for example passing the head in the sleeve or dressing trousers at the inverse etc…). However this difficulty should not be explained by a primary motor or sensory deficit or by a general attention failure (as it can be observed in patients with dementia, delirium or with a severe frontal syndrome). Interestingly, several cases reports of patients with pure dressing apraxia have been published, without the evidence of the co-presence of other forms of apraxia or other significant deficits in other cognitive spheres. |
