CBIS PRACTICE TEST STUDY GUIDE WITH
ACCURATE ANSWERS
◉ neuropathic pain
Answer: Pain associated with primary lesion
◉ neuralgia
Answer: nerve pain
◉ Neuromas
Answer: Nerve endings adhered to scar tissue
◉ Hydrocephalus ex vacuo
Answer: Appearance of increased CSF in atrophy. Intracranial
pressure normal, brain smaller
◉ Spasticity
Answer: Damage to upper motor neuron
Faster and extremity is moved = stronger the spasm
◉ heterotopic ossification
Answer: caused by bone formation in soft tissues
,◉ Dysautonomia
Answer: Imbalance between sympathetic and parasympathetic NS
" autonomic storming"
* present with muscle over reactivity, posturing, dystonia, rigidity
and spasticity
◉ Common Infections
Answer: Meningitis, respiratory infections, UTI, surgical site
infections, cellulitis, urosepsis
◉ Stages of motor learning
Answer: *cognitive (what to do)
*Associative (how to do)
*Autonomis (how to succeed)
◉ Cranial nerve dysfunction
Answer: Visual disturbance, facial dropping, postural instability,
dysphagia, autonomic dysregulation
◉ Athetiod
Answer: Slow, involuntary, writhing movements
◉ Ballisms
Answer: Quick flailing movements
,◉ choreiform movements
Answer: Continuous rapid & unpredictable movements
◉ Agnosia
Answer: Loss of ability to identify people or objects.
Visual, auditory or tactile
◉ Apraxia
Answer: Inability to perform purposeful movement
*ideomotor- unable to perform tasks on command
*ideational- unable to perform automatic tasks
*buccofacial- limitations and performing purposeful movement of
lips, cheeks, tongue, larynx and pharynx
◉ central cord syndrome
Answer: Presents as weakness & numbness in arms
* results from fall in with neck in hyperextention or with arthritis
or spondylosis
* bowel/bladder issues
* able to walk however unable to grasp things
◉ Brown-Sequard Syndrome
Answer: 1 side of spinal cord injured
, Ipsilateral paralysis, loss of light touch sensation on side of lesion,
loss of pain & temperature sensation on contralateral side
◉ Anterior cord syndrome
Answer: Loss of muscle control, pain & temperature sensation
below lesion
No loss of proprioception or touch sensation
◉ posterior cord syndrome
Answer: Strength with no proprioception
◉ cognition
Answer: A complex collection of mental activities such as
attention, perception, comprehension, remembering and language
◉ Domains of cognition
Answer: Attention, categorization, memory, processing speed,
executive functions, metacognition
◉ Attention
Answer: Divided, alternating, selective, sustained, focused
◉ Attention process training program (APT)
Answer: Process specific approach to cognitive rehab. Hierarchy
organized by difficulty
