DONE! WEEK 1: NEUROLOGY - CARDINAL MANIFESTATIONS [Salonga]] Flashcards
Give some disorders involving the cerebrum
- Abnormal mental status
*Cognitive and language impairment
( re: Higher cortical function)
* Behaviour and emotional disorder
*Impairment of motor function
* Sensory impairment
* Visual ( cortical) impairment
*Seizures
`
what are some cognition and behavior symptoms
Dementia Intellectual Disability Language dysfunction Conduct and abnormal behaviors Refer to functions of areas 11, 22, 47
Level of sensorium
( arousal) would indicate lesion along the course of
ARAS
what level of consciousness is can be aroused only by painful stimulus?
stupor
level of consciousness aroused by touch or voice?
obtunded
unable to arouse or respond to noxious stimuli
comatose
2 scoring used to grade COMA
GCS and FOUR Score
in GCS, EYE Opening response what are 4 3 2 1
4 spontaneously
3 to speech
2 to pain
1 no respone
in GCS, Verbal response what are grades 5 4 3 2 1?
5 oriented x3 4 confused 3 inapp words 2 incomp sounds 1 no response
in GCS motor response, what are the grading?
6 obeys command 5 localize 4 flexion withdrawal 3 decorticate 2 decerebrate 1 no response
in GCS what grade indicates comatose?
8 or less
indicate if UMNL or LMNL: Muscles Affected in groups, never individual
UMNL
indicate if UMNL or LMNL: Prominent muscle atrophy
LMNL
indicate if UMNL or LMNL: No babinski sign
LMNL
indicate if UMNL or LMNL: fasciculations absent
UMNL
indicate if UMNL or LMNL: normal; NCV, no denervation potentials in EMG
UMNL
indicate if UMNL or LMNL: spasticity with increased DTR
UMNL
dysfunction of the extrapyramidal motor system would result in (2)
Excessive Involuntary Movements; slow movements
4 cardinal signs of parkinsonism
Bradykinesia, resting tremor, rigidity, postural changes
extrapyramidal disorders/ movement disorders are all d/t?
imbalance of activity in the complex basal ganglia circuits
sustained abnormal postures of limbs, neck trunk, tongue protrusion or fixed upward deviation of the eyes
dystonia
what do you call fixed upward deviation of the eyes?
occulogyric crisis
slow contionous stream of slow, writhing movements?
athetosis
jerky semi purposive uncontrollable movements of the limbs, face and trunk
chorea
treatment for ballismus?
anti psychotics
cerebrocerebellum is assigned for?
motor planning and coordination
spinocerebellum fxn?
control of ongoing body and limb movements
vestibulocerebellum fxn?>
posture, balance, eye movements
