Scoping review demonstrates reliability and validity of the digitized archimedes spiral drawing test in assessing tremor and fine motor function.

The digitized archimedes spiral drawing test is valuable for assessing fine motor function in adults with conditions like parkinson's disease and essential tremor.
Of 120 studies reviewed, 84 focused on parkinson's disease or essential tremor, showing the test's strong reliability and validity.
The most common method of administration was digital tablets, yet there was significant variability in task design and measurement analysis.
Standardized protocols are needed for the digitized spiral drawing test to enhance its clinical application and ensure accurate results across different studies.

Wang et al. (2025) studied this question.
