(118 cards)
1
Q
What is the nervous system?
A
controls, directs and coordinates body function
2
Q
Two main divisions of Nervous System
A
CNS : the central nervous system_ brain & spinal cord
PNS : the peripheral nervous system_ nervous of rest body
3
Q
2 type cell of NERVE tissue
A
Neuroglía- nourishes(provide necessary substance)/
protects
insulates (cover) neurons
neurons_ transmit information
4
Q
Neurons work
A
Dendrites- receive messages
Nucleus- keeps cell alive
Axon- sends messages to axon terminals.
Myelin sheath- cover exon:enable to deliver impulse faster!
Neurotransmitters - chemical - allow message
Synapse- space between neurons
5

8
Q
Three main parts of CNS
A
1- cerebrum: largest part/ outer layer( cerebral cortex)
* thinking cap *
2-cerebellum: body movements
3- brainstem: control vital functioning in medulla
9
Q

; rest of cranial nerves parts
19
Q
Is the Nervous system autonomic?
A
Yes.it controls involuntary muscles & body function automatically
20
Q
Two part of control automatically
A
- Sympathetic- speed up
- Parasympathetic-slow down
21
Q

Leave them and just make report
45
Smell (olfactory)
Located on the roof of nasal cavity
The fluid in the mucous membrane stimulate
Send signal to the brain
Connected with taste
46
If patient complains cannot smell and taste, what should you do?

99
3 types of aphasia
① receptive aphasia: difficulty listening & reading )
② expressive aphasia: difficulty speaking & writing
③ both of aphasia_ worst: difficulty speaking & understanding language
100
Receptive aphasia
* Client can't understand own word
* speech mixup or muddle
* client can't aware of their mistakes
> using gesture & represent them what they will going to do by your action
101
Expressive aphasia
Can understand spoken & written words
Speech is difficult to understand
Think one but say another
Very aware of making mistakes > patient canbe embarrassed. > it could be lead them to frustration or depression
102
How to deal with expressive aphasia
① be polite
② Keep time until they say
103
Expressive- receptive aphasia
Global aphasia
Say "yes" or "No"
Use body language _ thumbs up/ shake head
104
Apraxia
Asia: The muscles use for speech
Can't use the speech muscles
105
Is the patient with apraxia has cognitive problem?
No, it's just that muscle is not working
Client understand speech & know what other say
Just the brain can't coordinate the speech mused
106
What is the speech muscle?
Jaw, lip. Tongue movements
107
Causes of apraxia
Damage to motor speech area in brain
• speech is usually slow
• inconsistent speech
• difficult to put words in the right order
108
Dysarthria
It's difficulty of speaking clearly
Because speaking muscles are weakness or paralysis
109
Causes of dysarthria
Cerebral palsy(중풍)
Multiple sclerosis
Head injury
Tumor
Infection
110
Emotional effect of speech & language disorder
Avoiding social situation
Avoiding friends & family
Extreme stress
Loss of employment
Difficulties doing routine tasks
111
Treatment of speech disorders
① meet a speech therapist
② remember the goal- "improving ability to communicates
112
Improvement for speech disorders
① depends on Brain damage
② age & health
③willingness & ability to learn
113
SLP role
① improve language skill
② Use remaining abilities
③ Restore language abilities to the best extent possible
④ learn other methods of communicating
⑤ strengthen speech muscles
114
Communication aids
① communication board - what's in there?
Picture or words to show function or task(can pointing)
Related activities of daily living
115
Communication aids
②mechanical & electronic devices
Aren't torches the picture
Voice message or printed message on the screen
116
Communication aids
③ using Computer
Using electronic devices
- can speak
- can type
- identify symbols
-Speech synthesizer
117
Guideline for handling speech disorder patients
① check & follow care plan
② communication method use
③ Care your facial muscle
④ be aware of the fatigue sign
⑤ try to include client
