Abstract

Background: Lance Adams syndrome is a chronic post-hypoxic myoclonus.

Phenomenology Shown: This video abstract illustrates Lance Adams Syndrome with mixed cortical and reticular reflex myoclonus in a 32-year-old woman following respiratory arrest in the setting of an asthma attack, as well as improvement in her exam following pharmacologic management.

Educational Value: Lance Adams syndrome can include both cortical and reticular reflex myoclonus features while interdisciplinary intervention and pharmacological treatment can improve symptomatology.
