Abstract

The mechanisms of catatonia may involve the GABA system, dopamine system, glutamate/N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor system and brain-derived neurotrophic factor. In this article we will share our experiences in treating catatonia with benzodiazepines in Taiwan. We will look at catatonia and its association with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis, and lastly, reports on predicting outcome of patients with catatonia will also be discussed.
