Q

Is the examination of smell accurate

A

No
Irritating substances may excite CNV sensory nerves endings and will not correlate with olfaction

24
Q

3 Branches of CN V

A

Opthalmic
Maxillary
Mandibular

25
Q

Examination of sensory function of CN V

A

Corneal reflex
Palpebral reflex
Sensation of facial area

26
Q

Examination of motor function of CN V

A

size and symmetry of mastifactory muscles
resistance of jaw to opening the mouth

27
Q

Dysfunction of CN V

A

Loss of sensory function of certain facial areas
Bilateral mandibular branch lesions –> dropped jaw , unable to close mouth
Chronic denervation –> muscle atrophy

28
Q

Differential diagnosis of dysfunction of CN V

A

Myositosis

29
Q

Examination of CN VI

A

Physiological nystagmus

30
Q

Dysfunction of CN VI

A

medial strabismus

31
Q

A

muscles of facial expression

32
Q

Sensory function of CN VII

A

Sense of taste

33
Q

Autonomic function of CN VII

A

Mandibular glands
Sublingual salivary glands

34
Q

Examination of CN VII

A

symmetry of face
corneal reflec
schirmer tear test
menace response
Blinking
Palpebral reflex
Pinching face

35
Q

What can cause facial nerve paralysis

A

inflammation and surgery of the ear

36
Q

Function of CNVIII

A

hearing
vestibular function (adaptation of eye and body position with respect to position and movement of the head)

37
Q

What is vestibular system

A

coordinates the position of the eye, neck, trunk and limbs with movements of the head
maintains equilibrium during active and passive movement when head is at rest

38
Q

Clinical signs of vestibular disease

A

Vestibular strabismus
imbalance
nystagmus
head tilt
vestibular ataxia
normal postural reactions

39
Q

Forms of Vestibular disease

A

Peripheral – inner eat
Central — cerebellum

40
Q

Motor function of CN IX

A

muscles of pharynx and palate

41
Q

Sensory function of CN IX

A

tongue & pharyngeal mucosa – taste

42
Q

Autonomic function of CN IX

A

salivary glands

43
Q

Examination of CN IX

A

Swallowing
gag reflex

44
Q

Dysfunction of CN IX

A

45
Q

Motor function of CN X

A

Pharynx, larynx, oesophagus

46
Q

Sensory function of CN X

A

47
Q

Autonomic function of CN X

A
