include brain injury due to hypoxia, meningitis,
encephalitis, and damage to blood vessels
diffuse brain injuries The brain is confined in a limited space so increased
pressure can cause collateral dysfunction: Diabetes
Insipidus (ADH not secreted thus polyuria)
characterized by paroxysmal HTN (up to 300 mmHg
systolic), a pounding headache, blurred vision,
sweating above the level of the lesion with flushing of
autonomic hyperreflexia
the skin, nasal congestion, nausea, piloerection
caused by pilomotor spasm, and bradycardia (30-40
beats/min)
location of lesions in cases individual most likely to be affected have lesions at
of autonomic the T5-T6 level or above
hyperreflexia
bradycardia (30-40bpm) is a sx of hyperreflexia
Stimulation of the carotid sinus -->vagus nerve --
>sinoatrial (SA) node. The intact ANS reflexively
sequence of events that responds with an arteriolar spasm that increases
lead to hyperreflexia blood pressure. Baroreceptors in the cerebral vessels,
induced bradycardia the carotid sinus, and the aorta sense the HTN and
stimulate the PNS. The heart rate decreases, but the
visceral and peripheral vessels do not dilate because
efferent impulses cannot pass through the cord
leading cause of dementia and one of the most
Alzheimer's disease common causes of severe cognitive dysfunction in
older adults
what are the greatest risk age, family history
factors for Alzheimer's
