class 2: neuro DD Flashcards
UMN lesion - tone
hypertonicity
UMN lesion - reflexes
hyper reflexia
UMN lesion - sesnsation
decreased
UMN lesion - involonary muscle moevemnts
muscle spasms
UMN lesion - voluntary movements
movement in syngerist patterns
LMN lesion - tone
hypo tone
UMN lesion - what is involved
cortex, BS, SC
LMN lesion - what is involved
peri nerves, nerve roots, CN
LMN lesion - reflexes
hyper reflexia
LMN lesion - sensationn
decreased
LMN lesion - voluntary movement
fasiculations
basal ganglia lesion - tone
rigid
basal ganglia lesion - reflexes
normal or decreased
basal ganglia lesion - sensation
normal
basal ganglia lesion - involintary movement
resting tremor
basal ganglia lesion - voluntary movements
bradykinsia or akinesia
what is bradykinesia
slowness of movement
what disease is bradykinesia a common symtom of
park
cere - tone/reflexes
decreased or normal
cere - senstation
normal
cere - involuntary movements
normals
cere - voluntary movement
axtia, intention tremor, D and D, nystagmus
what is the purpose of a CT scan vs MRI
better for imaging bones and blood vessels, while MRIs are better for imaging soft tissue
spacity vs rigidity
spa: movement and then it is restricted, velocity dependent
rigdity: will not let you move from the start
difference between hypokinesia and bradykinesia
Bradykinesia is a complex consisting of slowness of movement
hypokinesia (small or decreasing amplitude movement),
what is akinsia
inability to initiate movement
what happens with parkinsons
depletion of dopamine in substantia nigra
what is the difference between resting tremor and intention tremor
resting - seen at rest
intention - seen when starting to move
is park seen more in men or women
men
older adults
what are the cardinal signs of parks
- Tremor (Resting)
- Rigidity
- Akinesia
- Postural instability
what is park gait
a walking pattern that’s characterized by short, shuffling steps, reduced arm swing, and difficulty starting and stopping
TRAP - park
tremor - intention
Rigidity - cogwheel or leadpipe, proximal, intially proximal
Akinesia - cannot inciate movement
postural instability - throcic kyphosis and forward head
what is the diffierence between cog wheel and leadpipe
cog - rachet like
lead- smooth and consistent thorughout
Hoehn and Yahr Classification of Disability - 1
unilateral if present.
Hoehn and Yahr Classification of Disability - 2
Minimal bilateral or midline involvement.
Balance not impaired.
Hoehn and Yahr Classification of Disability - 3
Unsteadiness when turning or rising from chair.
Some activities are restricted, but patient can live independently
Hoehn and Yahr Classification of Disability - 4
Standing and walking possible only with assistance.
Hoehn and Yahr Classification of Disability - 5
Confined to bed or wheelchair.
Early symptoms: park
- Loss of smell
- Constipation
- Sleep disorders
motor sign of park
Hypophonia, mask-like face, micrographia
what us hypophonia
a person’s voice to be abnormally soft, weak, and breathy.
