Textbook Question
Chapter 13, Problem 4AYKA
Maria is a 3-year-old who has been diagnosed with CIPA, or congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis. This disease results from a genetic mutation that causes essentially all general sensory neurons to not function properly. What types of sensations will Maria be unable to detect (be specific)? Predict what problems she might face from her condition.

- Ototoxic drugs are drugs that may damage the cochlea, auditory nerve and/or the vestibular system of the ear. The damage caused is usually temporary and symptoms improve once the patient stops taking the drug. However, in some patients, the damage is permanent. Damage to the cochlea is the most common problem associated with these drugs. The reason that hearing loss results when the cochlea is damaged is: Select one: a. The bones in the ear do not amplify or increase the sound vibrations. b. The eardrum cannot transmit vibrations from sound waves to the malleus. c. The Eustachian tube remains open. d. Hair cells within the damaged cochlea do not bend preventing the transmission of an electrical signal to the auditory nerve.arrow_forwardDamage to the part of this cranial nerve indicated by the arrow in this image would result in contralateral homonyous hemiaponsia ipsilateral monocular blindness ipsilateral homoymous hemianopsia tunnel vision contralateral monocular blindnessarrow_forwardJJ is a 75 yo female patient with asymptomatic open angle glaucoma with elevated IOP >25%.

What help is available for your condition? Are there local services, family, friends, or help through the workplace that can help you adapt to life without the sense? What would you do in this situation? What parts of your life do you think this condition would affect the most?arrow_forwardPresbycusis is an age-related hearing loss affecting individuals over the age of 65. Many affected individuals have difficulty understanding words because, although they may be able to hear the sound, they are unable to distinguish the exact words. This hearing loss is most noticeable at higher frequencies. Which of the following statements correctly describes an individual suffering from presbycusis? Select one: a. Individuals with presbycusis have damaged hair cells at the base of the cochlea, which is closest to the oval window. b. Increasing the volume of higher frequency sound allows individuals affected with presbycusis to hear better. O c. Individuals with presbycusis have damaged hair cells at the apex of the cochlea, which is farthest from to the oval window. Od. Decreasing the amplitude of lower frequency sound allows individuals affected with presbycusis to hear better.arrow_forward
