Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The regions of the brain which get affected due to the occurrence of the shaken baby syndrome.
Introduction:
The shaken baby syndrome is caused by a trauma caused in the subdural and the subarachnoid space in brain regions, due to a sudden jerk in the head and body of the child. This leads to the rupturing of blood vessels and breaking of the fragile bones in the skull. The medulla oblongata and brainstem can get damaged leading to the death of child.

It can even affect fine motor skills causing loss of balance or ones ability to perform ADL’s. Ertha is no longer in her familiar home which is adding to her anxiety and could be making her dementia worse. She may forget to take medication or take it more than once due to poor memory. Key nursing considerations would be to have a CNA help assist with ADL’s and report back to Nurse if Ertha isn’t willing to comply with help. Ertha should be given help but as long as she is capable, she should perform all ADL’s unassisted. Ertha should have a schedule laid out and easily followed so she can focus. All tasks need to be made very simple and easy to follow to avoid the patient from getting confused and agitated. Ertha should have a medication box clearly marked so she can read it. Meals need to be monitored because as the dementia progresses, she may forget to eat.
