title: Post-rotatory nystagmus in hyperactive children with spatial awareness problems.
abstract: In recent years a great deal of attention has been focused on the problems presented by children diagnosed as having "minimal cerebral dysfunction", a term which refers to children exhibiting mild clinical neurological symptoms. In 1973, Wender expanded this definition, pointing out that hyperactivity, short attention span, impulsivity, poor school work, perceptual-cognitive dysfunction and poor neurological functioning and coordination are among some of the cardinal features of minimal cerebral dysfunction. Recently, the various professional groups involved in the management of these children have become much more aware of their problems and, as a team, are endeavouring to provide better rationale for treatment procedures and management.
