Brief Summary: Hereditary hyperekplexia is a rare neuronal disorder caused by genetic defects leading to dysfunction of glycinergic neurotransmission

The clinical presentation is characterized by stiffness and exaggerated startle responses to unexpected stimuli that appear shortly after birth

The generalised stiffness can lead to apnea and sudden infant death syndrome

Several genes are known to be associated with hereditary hyperekplexia The most frequent are Glycine Receptor Alpha 1 GLRA1 Glycine Receptor Beta GLRB and Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 5 SLC6A5 They encode for the postsynaptic glycine receptor GLRA1 GLRB and the presynaptic glycine transport SLC6A5 Genetic mutations in these genes lead to dysfunction in the glycinergic inhibitory neurotransmission

The neurodevelopment was initially described as normal or as delayed due to the motor difficulties Global development delay and intellectual disability are reported as well in the most recent studies

Nevertheless the degree of severity of the learning difficulties and the adaptive faculties of the patients is not specified

Similarly the efficacy of clonazepam in hyperekplexia is well known but the evolution of dosage over time and the frequency of complete withdrawal have never been studied

The primary endpoint of this study is to describe adaptive skills using a standardized questionnaire Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale VABS2

Secondary endpoints are

Neurodevelopmental course study
Description of the evolution of the clinical manifestations over the years
Evaluation of the efficacity of the treatment CLONAZEPAM initially and over time and evolution of the dosage
Comparison of clinical and therapeutical characteristics according to the genotype
