Question
Chapter 15, Problem 4CCS
Summary Introduction
Case summary:
Brain Rhen (42 age) was suffering frombenign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). He went to the neurologist for the treatment. The patient experienced recurring episodes of vertigo. The BPPV can be caused by the head trauma. The problem of vertigo can also be provoked by the specific type of head movements.
Characters in the case:
Brain Rhen and a neurologist.
Adequate information:
Mr. Rehn was suffering from BPPV and confirmed by a neurologist. The patient rushed to the neurologist and told him that when he rolled over the bed or turned his head from side to side while sitting, he encountered with the condition of nausea and vomiting like symptoms. The neurologist called him for a test, called Dix-Hallpike maneuver, toconfirm that he was suffering from BPPV.
To determine:
The two functional divisions of the vestibular apparatus and sensory receptor associated with each division. The aspect of equilibrium that each receptor senses.

- An existing method for the treatment of spinal abnormalities is the braces method. What change can we add to it and make a difference from the existing method.arrow_forwardPlease describe an example of both a primary and secondary spinal cord injury. Our discussion this week pertains to Spinal Cord Injuries. Primary spinal cord injury involves damage to vertebral or neural tissues from compression, traction, or shearing forces. Secondary spinal cord injury is related to ischemia, excitotoxicity, inflammation, edema, oxidative damage, and activation of necrotic and apoptotic cell death; it begins within minutes after injury and continues for weeks. Assignment Instructions: Describe an injury. Some learners will use the same injury, such as a fall off of a horse. Describe how the patient experienced both primary and secondary injuries. Be sure to describe symptoms, implications, and testing that helped clinicians to classify the injury into these categories.arrow_forward35-year-old diagnosed with M.S. presents to clinic after experiencing intermittent generalized weakness and blurred vision.

- A 36-year-old woman presented with a history of seizures that began at age 16. Her seizures are described as generalized tonic-clonic. Originally, she received phenobarbital. The tonic-clonic seizures were controlled, but she began to have episodes of non-responsive staring (absence seizure). Her medication was changed to phenytoin (PHT). PHT controlled both the staring episodes and the tonic-clonic seizures, but severe gum hypertrophy occurred. She was changed to carbamazepine, but the episodes of staring became more frequent and she developed involuntary jerking of her upper extremities (myoclonic seizure). For the past 2 years, she had received 500 mg of valproate (VPA) three times per day. She reported no side effects, seizures, or other related events. At age 30, she suffered a miscarriage while taking PHT. She has a 3.5-year-old son. During the pregnancy, she remained seizure free. There was no history of birth defects.
