OCS EXAM PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHIES WITH ALL CORRECT & 100%
VERIFIED ANSWERS|ACTUAL COMPLETE EXAM|ALREADY GRADED A+
1. Endoneurium delicate connective tissue around individual nerve fibers in nerve
2. Perineurium coarse connective tissue that bundles fibers into fascicles
dittusion barrier
3. epineurium Dense connective tissue that surrounds entire nerve including fascicles
and blood vessels.
4. Neuropraxia interruption in conduction of an impulse down the nerve fiber
5. Axonotmesis a more severe grade of injury to a peripheral nerve. is reversible injury
to damaged fibers. damage occurs to the axons with preservation to
endoneurium. nerve can regenerate distal to the site of lesion by one
millimeter per day.
6. Neurotmesis most severe grade of injury to a peripheral nerve. all components are
damaged and irreversible. all motor and sensory loss is permanently
impaired.
7. Mononeuropa-
thy vs Mono:
polyneuropath -trauma, or no-trauma
y -peripheral nerve entrapment or compression syndromes
-peripheral nerve lesion
polyneuropathy:
-more systemic - metabolic, nutritional, hereditary, immune, infections
diseases
-Peripheral symptoms occur first such as in feet or hands, often bilateral
8. Sunderlan -loss of sensory before motor.
d grades
Autonomic changes can happen with both
1: neuropraxia just myelin
2: neurpraxia with some axonal
3: axonotmesis with axon and endoneurium

9. Median nerve ligament of struthers (proximal to medial
and AIN epicondyle) pronator teres
entrap- ment
sites
AIN
Distal pronator teres
FPL
FCR
10. Pronator Carpal Tunnel
Teres
Syndrome Median nerve compressed in between heads of pronator teres
Symptoms: pain and tenderness over PT, sensory changes along
distribution test: resist pronation and elbow flexion at same time
Hand of benediction: unable to flex 1st three digits
11. Carpal Tunnel
Syndrome: Treatment: splint at 90 degrees elbow flexion with neutral forearm
gen- eral
-Most common
-Caused by repetitive hand use of decreased space in tunnel including
sustained wrist flexion
Etiology
-Interstitial pressure within nerve
-ischemia from this pressure/compression, disrupted signalling
Diagnosis:
-usually always night symptoms
