This can be a symptom of neurological disorders, particularly Parkinson's disease, or a side effect of medications.

2. Denoting a method of showing the details of motor action by motion pictures taken very rapidly and shown very slowly.

bradyteleocinesis, bradyteleokinesia, bradyteleokinesis
1. A dyskinesia in which a movement is slowed or stopped prior to reaching its goal.
2. A disorder of movement, sometimes seen in cerebellar dysfunction, but not pathognomonic, in which a particular movement is arrested suddenly and unexpectedly and then, after a pause, the movement is completed in a slow jerky manner.
