Cranial Nerves [Your Name] [Mentor’s Name] [Course Code and Course Name] [The date] Cranial Nerves Introduction The cranial nerves are important nerves in our brain and they are located on the bottom surface of human brain. They are twelve pairs of nerves. Some of the cranial nerves are responsible to control body muscles, some of the cranial nerves are associated with the internal organs or glands such as human heart of lungs and some of the cranial nerves are responsible to take…

medial nerve, which is very common in those who use a keyboard and a mouse. When typing, finger should be in line with the forearms, not resting on the table. Use a gel keyboard pad, or even something like a towel. A way that we can prevent it from getting any worse is to use a keyboard pad, making sure that the desk is not too high for you, and not causing you to have your wrists completely rest flat on the desk in a prolonged extended position which would cause compression to the median nerve.…

For two months, as I followed every conceivable lead, Caulder grew nastier, fuming constantly about my incompetence. “What the fuck have you been doing with your time?” he bellowed. “Do you have any idea the flack the department will take, that I will take, if it comes out we killed a guitar player while trying to dispatch an ambassador’s daughter? I’m not letting you jeopardize my reputation—or my retirement.” “It’s not my fault. You taught her every trick she knows.” “She switched sides, Mark.…

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a hand injury which occurs at wrist joint and causes several problems at this joint, such as finger numbness, pain and muscle weakness. It happens as a result of compression of the median nerve which innervated thumb, index and middle finger (ASSH, 1990). This compression is caused by pattern of hand use, fracture at wrist joint and other medical conditions, for instance diabetes, obesity and rheumatoid arthritis (NHS, 2014). There are two ways to treat carpal…

THE SEVENTH CRANIAL NERVE Testing the Function of the Facial Nerve VII Anatomy & Physiology 203 November 15, 2014 Introduction: The facial nerve is the seventh cranial nerve of the peripheral nervous system that is the chief motor nerve of the face. It exits the brainstem between the pons and the medulla.

INTRODUCTION The lamina cribrosa (LC) within the scleral canal in the optic nerve head (ONH) is thought to be the primary site of axonal insult in glaucoma.1-3 It is of interest in glaucoma to understand the anatomy of the LC and surrounding tissues and how they change with aging and disease. LC has been investigated using a variety of methods, including histologic section,4,5 detergent digestion of surrounding tissues6,7 and finite element modeling.8,9 In human glaucomatous eyes, LC…

Jeanese Murdock Splint Wearing Reflection Paper Over a period of the first two days I wore my splint for six hours. First in the setting of driving and community mobility which was an hour. While at home I wore it for another 2 hours while doing ADLs and IADLs. Also, I participated in the leisure setting for 3 hours. I was only able to sleep in it for two hours. Saturday morning I wore the splint for three and a half hours deer hunting. I must say that the splint was comfortable, but it…

On the Should of a Stranger The sound of my shovel breaking the ground is the only noise that reaches my ears. The warm tears running down my cheeks, the only thing I feel. I slow down my breathing to match the rhythm of the steady chink of my shovel as it enters the dirt, almost reaching a hypnotic state. Anything to keep my mind off what is happening. Chink. An image of me on my knees beside the road flashes before my eyes, and with it comes a searing pain. My shovel misses its mark and…
