Common Nervous System Disorders Ch. 9

Paralysis - loss of power of motion or sensation - every case of paralysis is completely different

Types of Paralysis Monoplegia - paralysis of one limb Paraplegia – paralysis of both legs Hemiplegia – paralysis of ½ the body (left or right) Quadriplegia – paralysis of all 4 limbs Video

Epilepsy - seizure disorder of the brain - brain is firing off excessive impulses - cause is uncertain

Cerebral Palsy - spastic paralysis - caused by damaged to cerebrum or abnormal development - happens at birth/childhood - can be managed, not cured

Multiple Sclerosis - chronic inflammation of Central Nervous System - destruction of myelin sheath; leaves scars on axon - loss of muscle control, vision, balance, and sensation - can be managed, not cured
