| arsenical tremor | A tremor caused by chronic poisoning by arsenic. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ataxic tremor | <neurology> A tremor which arises or which is intensified when a voluntary, coordinated movement is attempted. (18 Nov 1997) |
| passive tremor | A coarse, rhythmic tremor, 3-5 Hz frequency, usually confined to hands and forearms, that appears when the limbs are relaxed, and disappears with active limb movements; characteristic of Parkinson disease. Synonym: passive tremor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| volitional tremor | A tremor that can be arrested by a strong effort of the will. Synonym: intention tremor. (05 Mar 2000) |

| physiologic tremor | Fine tremor, 8-13 Hz frequency, which is a normal phenomenon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coarse tremor | A tremor in which the amplitude is large and the oscillations are usually irregular and slow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pill-rolling tremor | Resting tremor of the thumb and fingers seen in Parkinson disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| continuous tremor | A tremor that is constant, whether the subject is at rest or moving. Synonym: continuous tremor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| postural tremor | Tremor present when the limbs or trunk are kept in certain positions and when they are moved actively, usually due to near-synchronous rhythmic bursts in opposing muscle groups. Synonym: static tremor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| progressive cerebellar tremor | <syndrome> An intention tremor beginning in one extremity, gradually increasing in intensity, and subsequently involving other parts of the body. Synonym: progressive cerebellar tremor.
