Slow transc...

NR 507 Week 7 Assignment: CNS: Sensory and Motor Disorders (E-dapt Content) Dementia Dementia is a neurodegenerative disorder that is considered a progressive disease that is associated with impai red cortical function. It is an all-encompassing term. Note the diagram of the brain below that demonstrates the effect of dementia on the cerebral cortex that demonstrates severe cortical shrinking: Dementia is not a stand-alone disease, but rather, a group of symptoms caused by an underlying conditio...

AAET registry exam questions with correct answers 2023 When the synaptic vesicles are electrically stimulated by a nerve impulse, synaptic vesicles gravitate to the outer membrane of the presynaptic wall and release acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft. The Ach molecules migrate to the postsynaptic cells where they attach to the specific receptors. When enough neurotransmitters are received by the receptors to overcome the firing threshold a CMAP is generated causing muscle contractio...

Nerve conduction study Nerve conduction study - ANS -recording of evoked responses produced by electrically stimulating a nerve. -to see if the nerve is conducting an impulse slower than normal -If there is a decrease in conduction velocity (speed) then there will be an increase in latency (time). Clinical questions for NCS - ANS Are peripheral nerve fibers compromised? Are sensory fibers, motor fibers, autonomic fibers or all three involved? Where is the nerve le...
