- In some cases, phantom limb pain appears to be related to the patient's perception that the phantom limb is held in an uncomfortable position. True or False?arrow_forwardWhat is the primary difference between spinal and epidural anesthesia? The primary difference between spinal and epidural anesthesia is the site of a ministration of the anesthetic agent. The position of the patient and the skin injection site are similar. With spinal anesthesia, the medication injected directly into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the subarachnoid space between the meningeal layers of the spinal cord. With epidural anesthesia, the medication is injected into the tissues directly above the dura mater, where are the agent is then absorbed into the CSF.arrow_forwardA patient is brought into the emergency room showing symptoms such as dropping mouth and slurred speech. The doctor suspects a stroke and immediately arranges a computerized tomography (CT) scan of the patient's head to aid diagnostics. Discuss why the doctor may have suggested a CT scan over magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Describe in detail the physical basis of CT. The next day after the patient has been hospitalized the doctor decides to have a MRI to complement the diagnosis. Name one advantage of MRI compared to CT. Describe in detail the physical basis of MRI. The are two main types of stroke: ischemic, caused by a lack of blood flow and hemorrhagic, due to bleeding. On the basis of the CT scan, discuss how each type of stroke would appear in the CT scan. Since the patient has hypercholesterolemia and reported pain in the left arm during hospitalisation, the doctor wants to clarify if the patient may suffer from atherosclerosis in the carotid artery.

- Watch this video (http://openstaxcollege.org/l/neuroexam) that provides a demonstration of the neurological exam—a series of tests that can be performed rapidly when a patient is initially brought into an emergency department.

- Mr. Lipton is an 80-year-old patient admitted to the neuro floor yesterday. He woke up yesterday with new left-sided hemianopsia (cannot see anything on the left side of his vision/body). The MRI shows a new brain tumor in his occipital lobe. He has no other medical history, and he lives at home with his wife, who has moderate dementia. He is scheduled for surgery tomorrow. You receive report and learn that Mr. Lipton is pleasant and cooperative but is not patient and does not wait for the staff to come and help him use the bathroom, which causes the chair and bed alarms to go off frequently. What is your priority concern for this patient after hearing report? Why did you choose that as the priority?arrow_forwardExplain the ascending pathway of how the information about touch sensation travels from the right arm up to the brain where he is aware that he has been touched.
