Name the 12 cranial nerves
I OLFACTORY II OPTIC III OCULOMOTOR IV TROCHLEAR V TRIGEMINAL VI ABDUCENS VII FACIAL VIII VESTIBULOCOCHLEAR IX GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL X VAGUS XI SPINAL ACCESSORY XII HYPOGLOSSAL
12 cranial nerves summary
I Olfactory: smell–>sensory
II Optic: vision: eyelid and eyeballs=sensory
III Oculomotor: eyeball=motor
IV Trochlear: eyeball (up and down)=motor
V Trigeminal:mastication and sensation to the mouth=both
VI Abducens: eye balls(running vision)= motor
VII Facial:facial movements, taste, salivary glands=both
VIII Vestibulocochlear: hearing and balance=sensory
IX Glossopharyngeal: taste, velar movements and taste = both
X Vagus: laryngeal movement, laryngeal sensation, heart and stomach= both
XI A spinal: neck movements= motor
XII Hypoglossal: tongue movement=motor
which cranial nerves have sensory FUNCTIONS?
I Olfactory: smell
II Optical: vision
VIII Auditory (vestibulocochlear): hearing and balance
Which cranial nerves have motor functions?
III Oculomotor: eyelid and eyeball movement IV Trochlear: eyeball movement VI Abducens: eyeball movement XI (Spinal) accessory: neck muscle XII Hypoglossal : tongue movement
Which cranial nerves have both sensory and motor functions?
V Trigeminal: mastication and sensation to the face
VII Facial: facial movements, taste, salivary glands
IX Glossopharyngeal: velar movements, taste
X Vagus: laryngeal movements, laryngeal sensation, heart & stomach
Explain the term afferent nerve
afferent=sensory=up ( ARRIVE) ASCENDING SIGNALS
- Information from periphery to brain ex: smell, pain
- neurons located outside of the CNS
Explain the term efferent nerve
motor= down and out (EXECUTE) DESCENDING SIGNALS
- information from the upper motor neurons to the brainstem (lower motor neurons) to the oro-facial muscles.
- located in the brainstem. .
define the term cranial nerve
- part of the peripheral nervous system
- provide the head & neck musculature with motor commands, & send sensory information from the head and neck to the brain.
clinical notes of cranial nerve V trigeminal
lesion of:
- main pontine sensory nucleus=IPSILATAREL
- spinal nucleus & peripheral nerve=TRIMINAL NEURALGIA (pain, demyelination)
- UMN=minimal bilateral weakness & chewing. JAW JERK REFLEX
- LMN=jaw DEVIATION on legion side=ATROPHY
clinical notes of cranial nerve VII facial
lesions of:
-UMN & corticobulbar tract= CONTRALATERAL PARALYSIS OF LOWER FACE ONLY
-LMN & peripheral nerve : IPSILATERAL PARALYSIS OF THE WHOLE SIDE OF THE FACE
-Any compression of VII=BELL’S PALSY:
LMN & nucleus salivatory;ONE SIDE PARLAYSED UP+DOWN; Hyperacusis (no stapedius reflex absent); Dry eye (parasymathical)
-Sensory nucleus: TASTE FUNCTION
-cortical nucleus: MINIMAL ON TASTE coz of bilateral prejection
clinical notes of cranial nerve XII hypoglossal
lesions of:
LMN & peripheral= TONGUE DEVIATION ON SAME SIDE OF LESION ; FLACCID PARALYSIS of the tongue; FASCICULATION; ATROPHY ON WEAK SIDE
-UMN & corticobulbar: TONGUE DEVIATION ON OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE LESION
What is the function of the I Olfactory nerve?
SMELL-sensory
tract of axons which terminates in the cortex
What is the function of the II Optical nerve?
Vision-sensory
optical tract from the retina to the optic chiasm
What is the function of the III Oculomotor nerve?
Motor; UNILATERAL INERVATION of eye lielid movement, PUPIL CONTRICTION, superior colliculus
What is the function of the IV Trochlear nerve?
Motor:UNILATERAL INNERVATION of Eyeball UP & DOWN.
-downward/lateral eyeball movement.
inferior colliculus
