Dr. Mark Oldham, Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center, President of the American Delirium Society, and Deputy Editor of the Journal of the Academy of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, introduces us to catatonia. We discuss the clinical features of catatonia and compare and contrast catatonia's description in the DSM with the Busch-Francis Catatonia Rating Scale. We describe and discuss various signs and symptoms of catatonia in detail.
