Dear Colleague,
​
MIND-TD is a faculty-led initiative intended to:

• Increase awareness and identification of tardive dyskinesia (TD) in clinical practice as a true medical condition; and
• Educate on the differential diagnosis of TD from other movement disorders

This expert-developed educational ecosystem comprises a compendium of resources for all clinical team members, to facilitate identification of TD and differentiation from other movement disorders.

We have collaborated in the development of a wide array of resources for the MIND-TD website, covering:

• The physical, social, and emotional impact of TD;
• Risk factors;
• Proposed neurobiology;
• Screening;
• Differential diagnosis; and
• General disease management principles

We have also contributed real-world patient cases, as well as some hypothetical cases, modeled on common factors seen in actual patients. Together, these cases depict various symptomatic presentations of TD and approaches to screening, from the perspectives of movement disorder specialists, neurologists, psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, and other care team members.

In addition, the MIND-TD website includes a section developed specifically for clinicians in training, including medical residents, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants.

Sincerely,

The MIND-TD Faculty
