medical word of the day: hypokinesis

I am writing my last test tomorrow and am extremely excited and nervous about it.

This term has come up a few times in my transcription the past few days:

hypokinesis: Diminished or abnormally slow movement. Also called hypomotility. This may be used in the general sense of activity or motion but also can be used to describe the function of blood vessels.
