Quadriparesis, also known as tetraparesis, is a weakness in all four limbs. It is related to quadriplegia or tetraplegia, in which all four limbs are paralyzed. There are a number of things which can cause quadriparesis, and several treatment options are available for patients with this condition. As a general rule, the patient needs to be under the care of a neurologist, a medical specialist who focuses on disorders of the nervous system.
Patients with quadriparesis can experience varying levels of function in their limbs, depending on the specifics of the injury. In some patients, the limbs may be weak and the patient may lack motor control. Other patients may have substantial areas of paralysis, while others may have relatively good motor skills. A neurologist can conduct a detailed examination to find out precisely where the problem originates, by determining which nerves are affected.
