Q

What is the organization of nerves?

A

Axons and their myelin sheaths are covered by Endoneurium. A bundle of axons covered by Endoneurium makes a fascicle which is covered Perineurium. A bundle of fascicles covered by Perineurium is covered by Epineurium to make a Spinal Nerve

Q

What are reflexes?

A
  • Rapid, involuntary motor responses to environmental stimuli detected by sensory receptors
  • Usually protective, fast simple circuits
  • Cerebral decision making not required to initiate the reflex. Aware of the reflex because sensory receptors send signals to the brain
  • If unaware, likely an autonomic reflex

Q

What are the four classifications of reflexes?

A
  • Site of integration-
    • Cranial vs. spinal
  • Effector involved-
    • Somatic vs. autonomic
  • Number of synapses
    • Monosynaptic vs. polysynaptic
  • Site of stimulus vs. effector
    • Ipsilateral vs. contralateral vs. bilater

Q

What is the difference between monosynaptic vs. polysynaptic

A

If afferent and efferent neurons are directly connecting (monosynaptic) or if afferent, interneurons, and efferent neurons are connected (polysynaptic)

What is the difference between Ipsilateral, contralateral, and bilateral?
* Ipsilateral: Stimulus and reflex happen on the same side of the body * Contralateral: Stimulus and reflex happen on opposite sides of the body * Bilateral: Stimulus happens and the reflex happens on both sides (ex. gagging)
26
What is the transition of cranial nerves on the models?
27
What is the difference between cranial reflex and spinal reflex?
* Cranial reflex - reflex is integrated at the level of the brain. Cranial nerves * Spinal reflex - reflex is integrated at the level of the spine. Spinal nerves
28
What do somatic and autonomic efferent innervations look like?
29
What is dermatomes anatomy?
* An area of skin supplied by sensory neurons that come from a spinal nerve ganglion * Forms connective tissue, including the dermis * 8 cervical * 12 thoracic * 5 lumbar * 5 Sacral
30
What is shingles?
* Also called Herpes Zoster * Viral infection that results in a rash * Rash only on one side of the torso because of how the nerves split on each side of the dermatomes
31
What are causes of shingles?
* Caused by vericella-zoster virus * What other disease does this virus cause? -Chicken pox * After chickenpox, the virus us dormant in your nerve tissue * However, it can reactivate and cause shingles
32
What are risk factors of shingles?
* Older than 50 * If you are immunosuppressed, or taking immunosuppressants * HIV/AIDS/cancer * Cancer treatment
33
What are symptoms of shingles?
* It affects the dermatome (the area of the body along the nerve it had been residing) * Pain, burning, tingling (pain is typically the first symptom) * Itching, fatigue, headache, fever * Fluid-filled blisters, red rash
34
What does the diagnosis for shingles look like?
* Based primarily on history and physical findings * Test blood, CSF, or saliva for VZV antibodies * Viral detection test from blister/scab sample
35
What are treatments for shingles?
* Antiviral and pain relieving medications * Most effective if treatment is started within 72 hours of a rash forming * Pain medications can range to perscription narcotics such as hydrocodone
36
What are some complications with shingles?
* Vision loss (ophthalmic shingles) * Bacterial skin infections * Neurological problems (encephalitis, facial paralysus, hearing/balance problems) * Postherpetic neuralgia
37
What are some misconceptions and facts of shingles?
* Younger people can get shingles too * 1/2 people who reach age 84 will get shingles at some point * Physical contact with open blisters of a rash from shingles cannot give another another person shingles; however, it can give them the chickenpox virus * Shingles and chickenpox caused by the same virus, but are different diseases
38
How can you prevent shingles?
* Get the shingles vaccine when you are older (around age 50) * These vaccines can be up to 90% effective
39
Shingles review question: The varicella-zoster virus causes shingles and what other disease?
Chicken pox
40
Shingles review question: Besides age, what is a major risk factor for shingles?
Having a suppressed immune system
41
Shingles review question: What is postherpetic neuralgia?
When the rash goes away, but you still experience severe pain due to damaged nerve fibers sending confused signals to the brain
42
Shingles review question: Is shingles contagious?
Shingles itself is not contagious, but VZV itself can be passed to someone else
