What jcharacteristic jis ja jmedical jcriterion jof jbrain jdeath? j
a. jAkinetic jmutism j
c. jApnea j
b. jComa j
d. jLocked-in jsyndrome j- jANS✓✓-ANS: jC j
Apnea jis jviewed jas ja jcriterion jof jbrainstem jdeath, jwhereas jthe jremaining
joptions jreflect jcerebral jdeath.
A jsudden, jexplosive, jdisorderly jdischarge jof jcerebral jneurons jis jtermed: j
a. jReflex j
c. jEpilepsy j
b. jSeizure j
d. jConvulsion j- jANS✓✓-ANS: jB j
A jsudden, jexplosive, jdisorderly jdischarge jof jcerebral jneurons jdescribes ja
jseizure. jThis jdescription jis jnot jaccurate jfor jthe jother joptions.
A jcomplex jpartial jseizure jis jdescribed jas: j
a. jAlternating jof jtonic jand jclonic jmovements j
b. jImpairment jof jboth jconsciousness jand jthe jability jto jreact jto jexogenous
jstimuli j
c. jFocal jmotor jmovement jwithout jloss jof jconsciousness j
d. jOne jseizure jfollowed jby janother jin jless jthan j1 jminute j- jANS✓✓-ANS: jB j
, A jcomplex jpartial jseizure jresults jis jimpaired jconsciousness, jas jwell jas jthe
jinability jto jrespond jto jexogenous jstimuli. jNone jof jthe jother joptions jaccurately
jdescribe ja jcomplex jpartial jseizure.
Status jepilepticus jis jconsidered ja jmedical jemergency jbecause jof jthe: j
a. jLoss jof jconsciousness j
b. jDevelopment jof jcerebral jhypoxia j
c. jPossibility jof ja jhead jinjury jduring jseizures j
d. jDecrease jin jbrain jmetabolism j- jANS✓✓-ANS: jB j
Status jepilepticus jis ja jtrue jmedical jemergency jbecause ja jsingle jseizure jcan
jlast jlonger jthan j30 jminutes, jresulting jin jhypoxia jof jthe jbrain. jThe jother
joptions jare jnot jthe jcriteria jused jto jconsider jstatus jepilepticus.
The jmost jcritical jaspect jin jcorrectly jdiagnosing ja jseizure jdisorder jand
jestablishing jits jcause jis: j
a. jComputed jtomographic j(CT) jscan j
c. jSkull jx-ray jstudies j
b. jCerebrospinal jfluid janalysis j
d. jHealth jhistory j- jANS✓✓-ANS: jD j
Although jthe jhistory jmay jbe jsupplemented jwith jthe jremaining joptions, jit
jremains jthe jpivotal jtool jfor jestablishing jthe jcause jof ja jseizure jdisorder
What jtype jof jseizure jstarts jin jthe jfingers jand jprogressively jspreads jup jthe jarm
jand jextends jto jthe jleg? j
a. jComplex-psychomotor jseizure j
c. jGeneralized jseizures j
b. jFocal j(partial) jJacksonian jseizure j
d. jAtonic-drop jseizure j- jANS✓✓-ANS: jB j
