meningitis needs to be treated as soon as possible. The infection can get worse quickly and cause permanent brain damage and long-term problems such as seizures and hearing loss. CAUSES This condition is caused by bacteria. You can get this condition if fluid from an infected person's nose, mouth, or throat: Gets into your brain through a wound in your head. Gets into your body and travels to your brain. RISK FACTORS This condition is more likely to develop in: People who have…

disease process causing increased cerebrospinal fluid or CSF inside the skull. Patients may experience loss of vision and severe headaches resulting from abnormally high CSF pressure. (NORD, 2015). The essential function of cerebrospinal fluid has long been thought to be a fluid envelope that cushions, protects, and nourishes the brain and spinal cord, and recent data shows that CSF plays an essential role in the homeostasis of the interstitial fluid of the brain and neuronal functioning…

your answer be certain to define components of this system that are more difficult the diagram; specifically Cerebral Spinal Fluid and Arachnoid granulations. (10 points) The ventricular system is made up of ventricles in the brain which contain CSF (Cerebrospinal fluid). The purpose of the ventricular system is to make and transport the CSF (Cerebrospinal fluid). This fluid connects with subarachnoid space and helps protect the brain. The lateral ventricles are the largest chambers and…

best possible treatment for this patient. Other diagnostic test may include blood studies, such as complete blood count, serum electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, liver profile, and serum glucose which is compared with the cerebral spinal fluid glucose. We should also test any respiratory secretions, lesion cultures, syphilis testing, and urine cultures. Neuroimaging, such as a CT or MRI would be beneficial as…

Viscosity and Flow Rate by Hasnain S. and Vinh T. What is Viscosity: Viscosity is the measurement of how fast a fluid will flow. In other words, it is the “thickness” or “thinness” of a fluid. The internal friction or resistance it has as well as the temperature in which the fluid is at determines the viscosity of the substance as well. If there is more internal resistance or friction, then the particles of the substance won’t slid past each other as easily and therefore make the substance…

vertebral column. Between the soft neutral tissues and the bones that house them are three types of membranous coverings called meninges. Some of the space between these coverings is called subarachnoid space and filled with clear and colorless fluid (cerebrospinal fluid “CSF”). CSF circulates inside the central nervous system through the ventricular part of this system and is finally absorbed into the bloodstream. Thus, the central nervous system literally floats in a cushion of CSF.1 CSF…

Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 What is aerofoil? Aerofoil is a large stucture which is attached to the airplane. It has curved surfaces designed to give required ratio of lift and drag. It helps to create different aeodynamic forces. The force perpendicular to the motion of aeofoil is lift force. The force parallel to the motion of aerofoil is drag force. 1.2 How it works? Aerofoil consists of following components: • Suction surface • Pressure surface • Leading edge • Tailing edge •…

voids are filled with a fluid (usually air). The physical properties of the materials can be characterised by bulk, macroscopic and microscopic properties. Most of which have an impact on the acoustical performance of the material. Sound energy is lost in porous materials when it is transformed into heat. This is caused by a combination of effects. Firstly, there are losses through the viscous effects between the solid matrix and the fluid when pressure waves causes the fluid to move…

This power and time is chosen to allow for any possible heat transfer to be observed. If the time is too short no heat transfer will occur and if the power is too low the ablation zone will be so small that the fluid flow will be too far from the zone too observe any sort of impact from the fluid flow. FLOW VESSEL…

term does also appear in the physics of fluids motion. Fluids are things that can flow such as gas, water or oil. In fluid motion physics there are two theories that are involved with the law of conservation and they are Bernoulli’s law and continuity equation. Bernoulli’s law is derived from the energy conservation between “kinetic energy and static energy associated with pressure” of an ideal fluid (Encyclopaedia Britannica, n.d.). An ideal fluid is a fluid with a steady flow, incompressible,…
