MSD & Brain Flashcards
(36 cards)
Frontal lobe damage =
Executive function deficits
Parietal lobe damage =
sensory deficits
temporal lobe damage =
Deficits in auditory perception/sensation/integration
Occipital lobe deficits =
Visual deficits
- Expressive deficits
- Receptive deficits
- Global deficits
- Cognitive impairment
- Right visual field impairment
Left Hemisphere Damage
- Spatial + perceptual deficits
- Discourse + pragmatic deficits
- Impulse behavior + attention difficulty
- Judgement + reasoning problems
- Poor awareness of deficits
Right Hemisphere Damage
Occurs due to blockage of a blood vessel
Ischemic CVA
Most common cause of stroke
Ischemic CVA
2 types of Ischemic CVA
Thrombotic
Embolic
blood clot develops in blood vessels inside brain, interrupted blood flow
Thrombotic
blood clot develops elsewhere in body + travels to brain throughout brainstem
Embolic
Occurs due to bleeding, blood vessel rupture
Hemorrhagic CVA
most common cause of hemorrhagic CVA
high blood pressure
2 types of hemorrhagic CVA
Intracerebral, subarachnoid
most common hemorrhagic, artery bursts; flooding tissues with blood
Intracerebral
bleeding in area between arachnoid mater and pia mater
Subarachnoid
often called “mini stroke”; Temporary clot, May be a warning sign for a future stroke
Transient Ischemic attack
Abnormal ballooning, forms in blood vessel
Aneurysm
Inflammation of brain and/or spinal cord
Encephalitis
Sound is trapped in oral, nasal, or pharyngeal cavity; muffled/low voice
Cul-de-sac resonance
VP valve does not close completely during production of oral sounds
VP Dysfunction
3 types of VP dysfunction:
VP insufficiency, VP incompetence, VP mislearning
VP dysfunction due to anatomical/structural defect (e.g., Cleft Palate)
VP insufficiency
Poor movement of structures (e.g., CN damage, dysarthria)
VP incompetence
