Question
Visit this site (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/
NYTmotor) to read about an elderly woman who starts to
lose the ability to control fine movements, such as speech
and the movement of limbs. Many of the usual causes were
ruled out. It was not a stroke, Parkinson’s disease, diabetes,
or thyroid dysfunction. The next most obvious cause was
medication, so her pharmacist had to be consulted. The
side effect of a drug meant to help her sleep had resulted
in changes in motor control. What regions of the nervous
system are likely to be the focus of haloperidol side effects?

She has come to the clinic because of a general feeling of weakness and some difficulty walking. She also has had problems with her vision. When you bring Patricia to the examining room, she asks you to leave the door open because she is afraid of being shut inside. The physician does a physical examination on Patricia and orders some diagnostic tests. A possible diagnosis for Patricia is multiple sclerosis. 1. The fear that Patricia experiences is known as _______________. 2. Understanding Patricia’s fears, what type of nuclear imaging test will be ordered for her? 3. Patricia wants to know how nuclear imaging works; she is afraid of radiation. Explain to her how imaging devices work. 4.

The level of his injury is at C6 – he preserved function below that neurologic level. He cannot walk and he also has some impairment in the arms and hands. He is still able to use a manual wheelchair with his upper limbs’ ability. Lucas is interested in the HandbikeBattle coming up in 2024. This organized event boosts self-confidence and fitness in those who have completed rehabilitation after an injury. Lucas wishes to train this year so that he can think of going to that event. Lucas may need a power-assisted handcycle for the event, but will train with you to be properly prepared. He has not been as active in the past 5 years as he dedicated himself to his work and family and his recovery in rehab. He has a handcycle and a roller as shown below and you have agreed to meet with him to ensure he is performing safely and correctly during his weekly sessions.  a) What…arrow_forwardWhich of the following is a sign of polio? loss of unconscious proprioception loss of pain and temperature flaccid paralysis spastic paralysisarrow_forward
- Please answer both questions using the image below. Thank you Q1: Damage to specific regions of the cerebral cortex, such as through a stroke, can result in specific losses of function. What functions would likely be lost by a stroke in the occipital lobe? Q2: Name the typical signs and symptoms of a stroke?arrow_forwardCan you resum this while connecting it with Pathophysiology and explain why is relevant. RESUM: The foregoing review attests to the multidimensionality of pain. Pain is a biopsychosocial experience that goes well beyond mere nociception. In this regard, identification of the physical pathology at the site of injury is necessary but not sufficient to explicate the complex process by which somatosensory information is transformed into the physiological, cognitive, affective, and behavioral response labeled as pain. Indeed, in the case of chronic low back pain, the magnitude of tissue damage may be out of proportion to the reported pain experience, there may be no remaining structural impairment, and physical signs that have a predominantly nonorganic basis are likely to be present. In this and other chronic conditions, to consider such pain as malingering or somatization would be to grossly oversimplify the matter. Pain, whether linked with injured tissue, inflammation, or functional…arrow_forwardThe neural tube defect involving a hernia protrusion of the spinal cord and meninges is: O Hydrocephalus O Anencephaly O Meningocele O Myelomeningocelearrow_forward
