To determine the clinical manifestation, diagnosis and treatment options of primary hemifacial spasm in Chinese outpatient subjects
About 1000 outpatient subjects will be recruited. The inclusion criteria include clinically diagnosed primary hemifacial spasm, male or female 18 to 80 years old and informed consent has been obtained. The exclusion criteria include secondary hemifacial spasm, other involuntary facial movement disorder, history of surgery of microvascular decompression of the facial nerve and so on. The outcome measures include the percentage of the treatment methods of HFS in outpatient subjects, aggrevated and relieved factors of HFS symptom, concomitant symptoms of HFS and adverse events of botulinum toxin treatment in HFS patients.
23 studies on the registry are indexed under Hemifacial Spasm; 3 are open to participants now.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
