To describe:
The location of injury in the body of Arthur who suffered from paralysis of upper and lower limbs. He has developed the disease quadriplegia. Analyze the likelihood that Arthur will recover from this injury.
Concept introduction:
Quadriplegia is a condition in which the upper and lower limbs of a person are paralyzed due to an injury. The sensory nerve and motor nerve control are inhibited leading to paralysis in later stages.

After viewing the MRI and talking with Elaine, Dr. Leutz strongly advised her to have reconstructive surgery
on the ACL and to use conservative therapy on the partially torn medial collateral ligament. First, though,
he wanted her to "pre-hab"-that is, take physical therapy for several weeks-in order to have the knee and
leg in the best possible shape before the surgery. She was also instructed to use a more substantial brace. Dr.
Leutz described the procedure: either a cadaver tendon OR the middle third of her patellar tendon would be
removed and used to replace the ACL, which would be removed. Elaine opted to use her own tendon.
Five weeks later, Elaine went in for surgery. She was given a drug used for conscious sedation as well as a
general anesthetic. Through the arthroscope the surgeon noted significant injury to both the medial and
lateral menisci, which he repaired with sutures and screws. The pieces of the torn ACL were removed. A
superficial incision was made in the midline…
Arthur dove off a small cliff into water that was shallower thanhe expected and hit his head on a submerged object. He is nowa quadriplegic, meaning that both his upper and lower limbs areparalyzed. Approximately where is the location of his injury?What is the likelihood that Arthur will recover from this injury?(You may want to review section 14.4 and Clinical View 14.3:“Treating Spinal Cord Injuries” in section 14.5 to answer thelatter question.)

When a friend distracts his attention, he runs head-on into a planter and is thrown over the planter box onto the concrete, landing on his left side. He immediately experiences pain in his left side, left wrist, and abdomen. His left wrist is angulated and obviously broken.A head-to-toe assessment demonstrates small, superficial scrapes on the patient's forehead and left cheek. His facial structures appear to be intact. Neurologically, he is normal, with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 14. He has no complaints of shortness of breath, and his chest wall shows no obvious external injury. An x-ray of his left wrist shows a comminuted fracture of his left radius and ulna.Angus is taken to the operating room for orthopaedic repair of his left wrist. After surgery, he is admitted to the orthopaedic floor with orders for pain medication as needed.Q1.…arrow_forwardAt which level of the spine would a lumbar punctureoccur, and why?arrow_forwardComplete transection of the spinal cord did not affect arterial blood pressure when the lesion occurs at level of :-a- mid-cervical segmentsb- upper thoracic segmentsc- lower thoracic segmentsd- mid-lumbar segmentsarrow_forward

Many years later she is found slumped in her cell, quite confused and with apparent paralysis in her right arm. When the jailer speaks to her, she is unable to produce any clear speech. Callisto can understand very simple sentences, and her sight is not affected. It is determined that she has a vascular occlusion (blockage) in her internal carotid artery. Callisto’s blood pressure is markedly lower than would be expected under physiological conditions. Based on this information, how are these structures in brain affected (if they are).
