The Nervous System
-
hematoma
-
common locations are epidural, subdural, and subarachnoid
blow to head can rupture time blood vessels in skill, causing them to bleed into space

-
-
Peripheral Neurology
Causes: trauma, systemic disease, infection and autoimmune, and genetic
-
Rehabilitation
extensive and vigorous rehabilitation exercise can help spinal cord injury pts recover some function
-
treatment of head injury, like treatment of spinal cord injury, involves both prevention of further injury, and treatment of existing
like spinal cord, injured brain will self-destruct due to increased swelling and cell death caused by tissues attempt to repair damage
-
Monitors conditions and takes corrective action, when necessary, to keep everything running smoothly

-
Specialized cells in nervous system called neuroglia, or glial cells, perform specialized functions
glial cells are not capable of measuring the environment, making decisions, or sending order
Astrocytes: metabolic and structural support cells that holds neurons and blood vessels close together

Specialized cells in nervous system called neuroglia, or glial cells, perform specialized functions
-
Hypothalamus- regulates hormone levels, temperature, water balance, thirst, appetite, pleasure and fear
-
-
-
medulla oblongata: impulses that control heartbeat, respiration, and blood vessel
-
-
brain stem contains reticulated system, diffuse network of brain stem neurons responsible for "working up" cerebral cortex
-
-
-
meningitis- infection of meninges, possibly fatal, and rapidly spread and affect brain and spinal cord
-
limbic system: control emotion, mood, and memory
