Essential tremor (ET) is the most frequent movement disorder. Its prevalence is about 1/200 implying that at least 300 000 peoples are concerned in France. Its frequency increase with age (14% of patients 65 yo). The diagnostic criteria are postural and kinetic tremor that can be associated with head/voice tremor. ET induces a social impairment but also difficulties to perform any task requiring dexterity. With time, tremor can be so severe that every activity of daily living is impaired with loss of autonomy.
