abnormal processes such as cerebral edema, increased intracranial pressure, cerebral
ischemia and hypoxia, and infection; onset is often delayed following the primary brain
injury.

Increased maternal age and family history are known risk factors for this condition.

these are the characteristics of a developmentally disabled patient - ANS-may appear
slow to understand, limited vocabulary
immature behavior

characteristics of autism - ANS-severe behavioral problems, repetitive motor activities,
impairment in verbal and nonverbal skills, difficulty making eye contact, has trouble
answering open ended questions and monotone speech

these are the most common forms of hearing loss - ANS-sensorineural deafness and
conductive hearing loss

sensorineural deafness - ANS-a permanent lack of hearing caused by a lesion or
damage of the inner ear

conductive hearing loss - ANS-hearing loss caused by a faulty transmission of sounds
waves. can be caused by an accumulation of wax within the ear canal or a perforated

this transport position should be used for patients with gastric tubes and difficulty
breathing - ANS-sitting or lying on the right side with the head elevated 30 degrees

shunts - ANS-tubes that drain excess cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the brain to

the brain. used for patients with chronic neurologic conditions. located beneath the skin
on the side of the head behind the ear.

signs/symptoms of distress for kids with shunts - ANS-bulging fontanelles (infants)
headache, projectile vomiting, AMS, irritability, high pitched cry, fever, nausea, difficulty

arrhythmias

vagal nerve stimulator - ANS-this is a treatment used for seizures that are not controlled
