hydrocephalus hazard factors
prematurity, pregnancy headaches, other congenital defects (specifically apprehensive gadget
defects), anxious gadget tumors, CNS infections, cerebral hemorrhage, and severe head
accidents
hydrocephalus s/s
-bulging with palpitation of anterior fontanel
-dilated scalp veins
-depressed eyes
-excessive pitched cry
-putting sun signal (eyes downward, sclera visible between top eyelid and iris)
Lobes of the cortex
frontal, parietal, occipital, temporal
frontal lobe
, associated with reasoning, making plans, components of speech, movement, emotions, and
problem solving
paritetal lobe
Sensory Cortex, gets touch sensations during the frame PAIN, SUNBURN
temporal lobe
A region of the cerebral cortex liable for listening to and language.
Occipital lobe
visible processing
Meningitis
irritation of the meninges of the mind and spinal wire
Meningitis reasons
Infections (viral (very not unusual), micro organism (most contagious & deadlier), fungal),
tumors, allergens
Meningitis S/S
headache/fever/photophobia
meningeal signs and symptoms- nuchal rigidity, Kernig's signal (when hip flexed to 90 stages,
complete extension of the knee is limited and painful)
Brudzinski's signal (tries to flex the neck will produce flexion at knee and thigh
Opisthotonic role (extensor rigidiy, with legs hyperextended, forming an arc with the trunk)
alterations in intellectual reputation- confusion to coma
seizures
babies--- refusal of feedings, vomiting/diarrhea, bulging frontanelles, vacant stare,
excessive-pitched cry
Meningitis complications
everlasting neurologic deficits
visual impairment
deafness
seizure
paralysis
hydocephalus
