Children with Complex Diseases: Anoxic Injuries at Birth Anoxic injuries can happen at any point in the gestational or birthing process. Some of the effects resolve shortly after birth with appropriate intervention, some have lifelong consequences, and some ultimately result in death. An anoxic brain injury occurs when the fetus or baby is deprived of oxygen for a host of different reasons. The extent of damage depends on many factors, as well as the prognosis. Manifestations…

notion that each hemisphere is simplified down to its own aspects such as reason and emotion, which was false. He states that humans are not the only species with a divided brain. McGilchrist begins to explain that the right hemisphere in humans is connected to alertness, vigilance, and broadness while the left hemisphere is more closely related to narrower and shaper focus on attention to detail. He makes it very clear that for both imagination and reason you need both hemispheres. I feel that…

I believe, as a teacher, that all students should have the opportunity to explore and develop themselves as musicians. This could happen through formal teacher instruction. Music being taught in schools can help two ways. It can create an appreciation for music and help the students form their own type of music which they identify with. The students musical identity can be developed through processes such as performance and academic study. The goal of music education is to produce strong…

Chapter four: Interrupt the Pattern Interrupting the pattern is the first step to unconscious branding. The mind leads the brains to action working through a process of recognized patterns. Shifting people’s attention and behaviors, requires doing something that disrupts the norm. Perception allows humans to see with their brain. It is an ongoing effort between expectations and incoming sensory data. When thing people observe fit thier expectations, they become unconscious to, requiring no…

Classification of glaucoma: Classification of glaucoma is categorized into different types. The main two types are open-angle and angle-closure which are marked by an increase of intraocular pressure (IOP), or pressure inside the eye. Open-Angle Glaucoma: “Open-angle” means that the angle where the iris meets the cornea is as wide and open as it should be. Open-angle glaucoma can be called as primary or chronic glaucoma. It is the most common type of glaucoma. Angle-Closure Glaucoma: It comes…

Nasometer What is it? A non-invasive, real-time, computer-software supported instrument that measures the acoustic energy of the nasal and oral cavity during speech tasks. Nasometry software collects and calculates the (nasal plus oral) data to determine a ratio converted to an average nasalance score. Nasalance Score: N ÷ (N + O) x 100.) Purpose: A tool to assess velopharyngeal function; including hyponasality, hypernasality, airway obstruction, and resonance disorders. Often used in cleft…

Introduction The incidence of cerebral palsy (CP) is estimated to be 3 in every 1000 live births (Yea rgi-Allsopp et al.2000). CP are a motor disorder that is characterized by impaired voluntary motor control. Especially with Athetoid type, patient presents a slow, writhing involuntary movement (Merck, 2006; United Cerebral Palsy Association [UCP], 2001).The main causes of the CP are a brain damage, mostly more than one type of brain damage, results the condition of functional disabilities.…

Persons with cognitive problem affects the processed of reasoning and handle the comprehension, information, ideas, memorization, thoughts. This is cognitive problem is related to operation in the brain that helps with the reasoning, planing, calculating and judging this is very frustrated for them and this affects a million of people without even being unaware that they have this problem or finding a solution for this. A great natural solution it will be to introduce ways to stimulate the brain…

Many different Neuroscientific techniques have been used and developed throughout the years in order to successfully identify and study an individual’s brain function, thus indicating how these techniques help to understand how the brain works, some of these techniques include: Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Computed Tomographic (CT), Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Magnetoencephalography (MEG). This essay will discuss these techniques in…

social interaction in humans. Well, study has revealed, Autism just like other neurological disorders emanates from disturbances caused on the central nervous system (Cacioppo, 2013). According to Cacioppo (2013), injuries to the brain can lead to Cerebral Palsy, which is a non-progressive disorder mostly characterized by muscle weakness, stiffness, shakiness, or even difficulty in…
