ACBIS STUDY GUIDE ALL QUESTIONS & UPDATED
SOLUTION
1. Diffuse Axonal Injury ANS >> Delicate nerve tissues rip, tear, and stretch
2. Hematoma ANS >> Accumulation of blood, causing pressure
3. Hydrocephalus ANS >> Blockage of CSF, causing pressure
4. Anoxia ANS >> Stop in oxygen getting to the brain
5. Hypoxia ANS >> Decreased amount of oxygen getting to the brain
6. Hemorrhages ANS >> Major bleeding from when the brain rubs against the inside of the skull
7. Coup- Contracoup ANS >> Ettect when the back of the head is struck and the front of the brain is injured
by the brain bouncing back and forth.
8. A-B-C data ANS >> "A" stands for antededents to the behavior. "B" is for the behavior. "C" is for the consequences
to the behavior. A-B-C data collects information, not only on the unwanted behavior, but also on what immediately
precedes and follows the behavior.
9. Absence seizures ANS >> Formerly known as petit mal, there is transient loss of consciousness. Person may
cease physical movement, have loss of attention or stare vacantly, neither speaking not apparently hearing what is
said. May be excessive eye blinking, staring, or chewing movements. May be so brief that may not be recognized.
10. Acquired Brain Injury ANS >> An injury to the brain occurring after birth that is not hereditary,
congenital or degenerative; does not refer to brain injuries induced by birth trauma.
11. Acitive Treatment interaction ANS >> Very broad concept that avoids caring for a person in a custodial
sense or behaving in ways that are likely to increase dependency within the relationship. The term implies directed
action, teaching, and a certain degree of risk taking.
12. ADA ANS >> Americans with Disability Act
13. Administrative Law ANS >> Law that is created by administrative agencees, such as the Dept. of Health
and Human Services, Congress or the state legislature. Administrative law authorizes an agency to create laws
,knows as rules or regulations.
14. Advanced Directive ANS >> Terms used for a living will.
15. Akathisia ANS >> Inability to sit or stand still; motor restlessness.
16. Akinesia ANS >> Slowness and loss of movement.
17. Americans with Disabilities Act ANS >> Known as the ADA, its purpose is to eliminate discrimination
on the basis of the disability in the full and equal enjoyments of the goods, services, facilities, privileges,
advantages, or accomodations of any place of public accomodation by any person who owns, leases, or operates a
place of public accomodation.
18. Amygdala ANS >> Close to the hippocampus, the amygdala is a "Fight or Flight" structure closely tied with
emotional memories and reactions.
, 19. Anosognosia ANS >> Lack of awareness of deficits
20. Anoxic ANS >> Lack of oxygen
21. Anxiolytics ANS >> Anti-anxiety medications
22. Aphasia ANS >> Diflculty understanding speech and/or diflculty expressing thoughts
23. Apraxia ANS >> Inability to conduct purposeful movement
24. Arachnoid ANS >> Like a spiderweb that bridges the brain's many wrinkles and folds.
25. Arousal ANS >> General state of readiness of an individual to process sensory information and/or organize a
response
26. Aspiration ANS >> Inhalation of foods, liquids or vomitus into the lungs
27. Ataxia ANS >> Impaired ability to coordinate movement
28. Atrophy ANS >> Wasting of size or functional activity
29. Axon ANS >> A long 'slim wire' in the neuron that transmits signals from one cell body to another via junctions
known as synapses
30. Basal Ganglia ANS >> Four nerve clusters of the basal ganglia or "Nerve Knots" help handle physical
movements by relaying information from the cerebral cortex to the brainstem and cerebellem.
31. Brain stem ANS >> It is like the "point person" for all incoming and outgoing information and basic life
functions. Contains many of the centers for the senses of hearing, touch, taste, and balance. It does not attect sight
and smell.
32. Brocca's area ANS >> Controls muscles of the face and mouth and enables the production of speech.
Located in the lower portion of the motor cortex in the left frontal-temporal lobe.
33. CARF ANS >> Commission for the Accreditation Rehabilitation Facilities is a national accreditation agency with
standards for rehabilitation programs.
34. CDC ANS >> Center for Disease Control and Prevention
