Myoclonus due to certain specified cause – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/753956901

A sudden, brief, shock-like involuntary movement that is often stimulus sensitive. It may be positive due to active muscle contractions, or negative due to inhibition of ongoing muscle activity, and is often a symptom of an underlying disorder rather than its own condition.
