2) locked in syndrome
3) persistent vegetative state
4) brain death
5) minimally conscious state

A 
Minimally conscious state
Locked in syndrome
Persistent vegetative state
Coma
Brain death
96
Q

Order in most conscious to least conscious

2) conscious
3) stuporous
4) obtunded
5) comatose
6) delirious
7) somnolent

A

1) conscious
2) confused
3) delirious
4) somnolent
5) obtunded
6) stuporous

A

Anterior limb

98
Q

The lacrimal nerve from V1 supplies parasympathetic fibres to the lacrimal gland - T or F?

A

True, lacrimal Nerve from V1 carry sensory fibers from conjuctiva and skin of superior eyelid AND receives parasympathetic fibers from zygomaticotemporal branch of V2 bound for lacrimal gland.

99
Q

Steps to test function of superior oblique?

A

Adduct the eyeball first which uses MR (look inwards to nose)

Then to test SO, direct gaze downwards while adducted.

IR depresses eyeball but SO enables extreme depression of eyeball, especially in adducted state.

100

A

Down and out

101
Q
