◍ peripheral nervous system (PNS).Answer:the sensory and motor
neurons that connect the central nervous system (CNS) to the rest of
the body.
◍ frontal lobe.Answer:brain lobe responsible for voluntary
movement, speech production, executive functions, emotional
regulation, and personality.
- functions, future, feelings.
◍ parietal lobe.Answer:brain lobe responsible for sensory perception
& interpretation, and proprioception.
- pressure, pain, position.
◍ temporal lobe.Answer:brain lobe responsible for auditory
processing, memory, language comprehension, emotion, and learning.
- talk, tone, thought, time.
◍ occipital lobe.Answer:brain lobe responsible for visual processing,
interpretation, and recognition.
,- optic.
◍ cerebellum.Answer:brain region responsible for coordination,
balance, posture, and fine motor control.
◍ brainstem.Answer:brain region responsible for autonomic function,
sleep/wake cycle, and reflexes.
◍ altered level of consciousness.Answer:when a patient is not
oriented, does not follow commands, or needs persistent stimuli to
achieve a state of alertness.
- assessments: ABCs, find cause (neurologic, toxicologic, metabolic),
GCS.
◍ Glasgow coma scale (GCS) (3-15).Answer:a scoring system used
to evaluate level of consciousness.
- eye-opening response:
4 = spontaneously
3 = to speech
2 = to pain
1 = no response
- verbal response:
5 = oriented x3
4 = confused
3 = inappropriate words
,2 = incomprehensible sounds
1 = no response
- motor response:
6 = obeys commands
5 = moves to localized pain
4 = flex to withdraw from pain
3 = abnormal flexion
2 = abnormal extension
1 = no response
◍ alert.Answer:spontaneous response to verbal commands or touch.
◍ lethargic.Answer:drowsy, but easily responds to stimuli.
◍ stupor.Answer:responds only with vigorous stimulation
◍ coma.Answer:a state of unresponsiveness with no awareness.
- cause: severe TBI.
- does not experience sleep-wake cycles.
- progress to PVS after 3 months or die within 2 weeks.
◍ persistent vegetative state (PVS).Answer:a state of wakefulness
with no awareness.
- bowel & bladder dysfunction.
, - continues to have a sleep-wake cycle.
◍ akinetic mutism.Answer:a state of wakefulness with severe apathy
& lack of voluntary movement.
- cause: dopaminergic pathway damage.
◍ locked-in syndrome.Answer:a state of full wakefulness &
awareness without voluntary movement.
- cause: lesions affecting pons.
- vertical eye movements & lid elevation are intact.
◍ intracranial pressure (ICP) (0-10 mmHg).Answer:the pressure
within the cranial vault; between brain matter, CSF, and blood.
◍ Monro-Kellie hypothesis.Answer:theory that states that due to
limited space for expansion within the skull, an increase in any one of
the cranial contents—brain tissue, blood, or cerebrospinal fluid—
decreases the volume of the others.
◍ increased ICP.Answer:elevated intracranial pressure affecting brain
function.
- early S/S: change in LOC, persistent headache, U/L weakness,
extraocular movements.
- late S/S: Cushing's triad, LOC deterioration, GCS <8, projectile
vomiting, hemiplegia, decorticate/decerebrate posturing, loss of
brainstem reflexes.
