 Damage that occurs to the brain when blood flow is disrupted

 Concussion Concussion  the violent shaking up of the brain  Cerebral Contusion  bruising of the brain tissue  Cerebral Hematoma Cerebral Hematoma  a collection of blood trapped in the tissues of the brain

 Syncope  Fainting  Lethargy  Lowered level of consciousness (drowsiness, apathy, reduced activity)  Coma  Deep state of unconsciousness ▪ No spontaneous eye movement, speech, or response to pain

 Seizure disorder (recurrent/sudden episodes of surges of electrical activity in the brain)

 Dementia  progressive decline in mental abilities (memory/thinking/judgment)  Alzheimer’s Disease Alzheimer’s Disease ▪ progressive deterioration of the brain structures that affect thought/memory/language/reasoning

 Parkinson’s Disease  progressive loss of control over muscle movements (tremors, bradykinesia, shuffling gait)

 Burning pain  Causalgia  Condition of excessive sensation (sensitivity to touch/pain)  Hyperesthesia  Abnormal sensation (tingling/prickling)  Paresthesia

 Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)  a/myo/trophic lateral sclerosis  “ without muscle development/nourishment”  nerve cells deteriorate and cannot send impulses to the muscles which results in progressive muscle weakness and eventual paralysis ▪ Also called “Lou Gehrig’s Disease”

 Guillain Barre Syndrome  Autoimmune-related inflammation of the myelin sheath of peripheral nerves that can lead to temporary paralysis  Multiple Sclerosis Multiple Sclerosis  autoimmune-related demyelination which disrupts the transmission of nerve impulses

Bell’s Palsy -temporary paralysis of one of the 7 th cranial nerves Trigeminal Neuralgia - lightning-like pain from inflammation of one of the 5 th cranial nerves

 Sciatica  inflammation of a spinal nerve that results in pain in the thigh/leg
