Myelin sheaths around fibers are gradually destroyed and turned into a hardened sheath called sclerosis
problem with basal nuclei leading to difficulty walking and problems with other voluntary movements with starting and stopping (overstimulate)
clumsy, disorganized movement due to damage to the cerebellum
inflammation of meninges
bacteria or viruses spreading into the nervous tissue and cause brain inflammation
"water on the brain"
degenerative brain disease resulting in dementia and death
degeneration to dopamine-releasing neurons, causes overactive basal nuclei (inhibition)
nerve pulses do not reach intended muscles, no voluntary movement is possible and atrophy occurs
muscles stay healthy and stimulated but movement is involuntary or uncontrollable
saused by brain damage at birth, neuromuscular disability where voluntary muscles are poorly controlled
cerebrum does not develop so child cannot hear, see, or process sensory inputs
results from incomplete vertebrae formation- has several varieties
inflammation of the conjunctiva
infection of the eye caused by bacteria or viruses that are highly contagious
usually caused by a prolonged lack of vitamin A
lack of all three cone types in eye results in total ______
causes hazy and distorted visions or total blindness with aging
"vision going gray"
olfactory disorders (taste and smell)
medical condition in which the red blood cell count or hemoglobin is less than norma
movement of a limb away from the midline of the body
Movement of a limb toward the midline of the body
chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease characterized by varying degrees of weakness of the skeletal (voluntary) muscles of the body
muscle that has two heads, or origins
double female genetic contribution
is a pain syndrome characterized by chronic pain, fatigue, and tenderness to touch. common in women
solution that has the same salt concentration as cells and blood
too large a heart
any and all diseases of the muscles
Something that is normal, that is due neither to anything pathologic nor significant in terms of causing illness
affected by or relating to paralysis of all four limbs
classic type of epileptic seizure consisting of two phases to a tonic-clonic seizure -- the tonic phase and the clonic phase

fissure or opening in upper lip; failure of maxillary and media nasal process to unite during embryonic development usually between 7-8th weeks of gestation.
335 failure of hard palate to fuse at midline during the 7th to 12th weeks of gestation; separation forms passageway between nasopharynx and nose-complicates feedings, increase risk respiratory infection and middle ear that can cause hearing loss; responsible for speech difficulties later in life; may not be apparent at birth; may need to palate to notice
surgical repair for cleft lip; before 6 months; when weight gain is established and free of infection; improved sucking ability & appearance improves bonding
different from rehabilitation because patient is disabled from birth & is learning rather than relearning
liver is unable to handle massive hemolysis & bilirubin rises rapidly -leads to hyperbilirubinemia; causes jaundice; may also have liver & spleen enlargement
accumulation of bilirubin in brain tissues causing brain damage and permanent disability
symptoms when fetus or newborn aspirates meconium stained amniotic fluid into lungs; respiratory distress
tumor contains portions of the membranes and CSF; size varies from nut to newborns head
protrusion of the membranes and spinal cord through this opening (meningocele)
another name for spina bifida
occurs when fetus has prenatal exposure to drugs such as opiates, amphetamines, tranquilizers, or multiple illicit drugs while in utero-w/drawl after born; developmental and neuro deficits; tremors and hyperirritability; wakefulness, diarrhea, poor feeding, sneezing, yawning
click-feel & hear femoral head slip back into acetabulum under gentile pressure; child walking without treatment also has characteristic limp; uni or bilateral possible
soft splint designed to gently position baby’s hips so they are aligned in the join & to keep it secure; birth to 3-6 months; bilateral hips required regardless if needed; pulls head of femur down to correct position opposite acetabulum & helps to prevent muscle spasms
bypass point of obstruction
body cast (frog like shaped) used with hip dysplasia; usually months changed every 6 weeks; no response after 18months may need surgery to repair
group of central nervous system disorders characterized by malformation of the spinal cord; neuro tube defect
(wet lung or RDS type 2)) usually after section birth or rapid vaginal delivery of term infant; tachypnea, retractions, grunting, mild cyanosis
inspection of a cavity or an organ by passing a light through its walls; simple diagnostic procedure useful in visualizing fluid; flashlight with a sponge rubber collar held tightly against infant’s head in a dark room. Observes for areas of increased luminosity; small ring of light is normal, large halo effect is not. Check for hydrocephalus
