cerebrovascular accident, commonly known as stroke is one of the most common health problems of the world. in the developing world, its increasing incidence is a matter of concern among the health workers across the globe. thus adequate knowledge about this medical condition is a must to deal with it effectively.
Extrapyramidal symptoms. ... These symptoms include dystonia (continuous spasms and muscle contractions), akathisia (motor restlessness), parkinsonism (characteristic symptoms such as rigidity), bradykinesia (slowness of movement), and tremor, and tardive dyskinesia (irregular, jerky movements).

Encephalitis is a rare yet serious disease that can be life-threatening.
Encephalitis is an inflammation of the brain tissue.
The most common cause is viral infections.
In rare cases it can be caused by bacteria or even fungi.
Encephalitis is an inflammation of the brain tissue.
Primary encephalitis- It occurs when a virus directly infects the brain and spinal cord.
Secondary encephalitis- It occurs when an infection starts elsewhere in the body and then travels to your brain.
Older adults
Children under the age of 1 year
People with weak immune systems
Primary (infectious) encephalitis
Common viruses, including HSV (herpes simplex virus) and EBV (Epstein-Barr virus)
Childhood viruses, including measles and mumps
Arboviruses (spread by mosquitoes, ticks, and other insects), including Japanese encephalitis, West Nile encephalitis, and tick-borne encephalitis
Secondary encephalitis: could be caused by a complication of a viral infection.
A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or reduced, depriving brain tissue of oxygen and nutrients. Within minutes, brain cells begin to die.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease of central nervous system which includes brain and spinal cord.
it affect the myelin and by damaging the the myelin producing cell -Oligodendrocytes, which leads to sensory, motor and cognitive problems.
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a long-term neuromuscular disease that leads to varying degrees of skeletal muscle weakness. The most commonly affected muscles are those of the eyes, face, and swallowing. It can result in double vision, drooping eyelids, trouble talking, and trouble walking.

A spinal cord injury (SCI) is damage to the spinal cord that causes temporary or permanent changes in its function. Symptoms may include loss of muscle function, sensation, or autonomic function in the parts of the body served by the spinal cord below the level of the injury.

It is the removal of solutes and water from body across a semipermeable membrane (dialyzer)
care during and after the dialysis is very important to prevent the entry of pathogens in to the body.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) consists of a spectrum of different pathophysiologic processes associated with abnormal kidney function, and a progressive decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
Benign prostatic hyperplasia is an enlargement of the prostate gland resulting from an increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue and developing upward into the bladder and obstructing the outflow of urine.
Seizures are episodes of abnormal motor, sensory, autonomic, or psychic activity (or a combination of these) resulting from sudden excessive discharge from cerebral neurons.

This book contains 25 chapters called as prakaranas. Many rasaoushadis were explained, pioneer of dhatu druti, nadi pareeksha, mutra pareeksha etc. Belongs to the period of 15-16 century. New diseases like upadamsha, phiranga rogas are explained.

2. Briefly explain how these functions are carried out
3. Discuss the significance of dead space
4. Differentiate between minute ventilation and alveolar ventilation
5. Describe the cough and sneeze reflexes

2. MOVEMENT DISORDERS
Movement disorders are neurologic conditions
that cause problems with movement, such as
Increased movement that can be voluntary
(intentional) or involuntary (unintended)
Decreased or slow voluntary movement.
3. DEFINITION
Movement disorders are clinical syndromes with
either an excess of movement or a paucity of
voluntary and involuntary movements, unrelated
to weakness or spasticity.
4. MOVEMENT DISORDERS
Ataxia.(Impaired balance or coordination,)
Dystonia(Repetitive muscle contractions)
Huntington's disease, (Chorea)
Parkinson's disease (Damaged Nerve cell )
Tourette syndrome,
Tremor(shaking movements of body parts.)
6. HUNTINGTON'S
DISEASE(Chorea)
Huntington’s disease is a chronic,
progressive, hereditary disease of the
nervous system that results in progressive
involuntary choreiform movement and
dementia.
Huntington's disease is an inherited disease
that causes the progressive breakdown
(degeneration) of nerve cells in the brain.
7. FACTS
HD is named after George Huntington, the
physician who described it as hereditary
chorea in 1872.
Characteristic features of HD include
involuntary movements, dementia, and
behavioral changes.
8. CAUSES
The huntingtin gene defect involves extra
repeats of one specific chemical code in one
small section of chromosome 4. The normal
huntingtin gene includes 17 to 20 repetitions of
this code among its total of more than 3,100
codes.
The defect that causes Huntington's disease
includes 40 or more repeats. Genetic tests for
Huntington's disease measure the number of
repeats present in an individual's huntingtin
protein gene.
9. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Movement,Cognitive and mood symptoms
Excitotoxicity of neural cell due to High Ca2+
Excessive mutated glutamine protein Aggregated in neuronal cell of basal ganglia(Caudate and putamen)
Abnormally long polyglutamine sequence
Repetition of nucleotide triplets CAG (cytosine, adenine, and guanine)
Affects HTT (Huntingtin) on Chromosome -4
Due to (Genetic factor)

12. CLINICAL MANIFESTATION
Neurologic manifestation:
Involuntary jerking movements (chorea)
Muscle problems, such as rigidity or muscle contracture
(dystonia)
Slow or abnormal eye movements
Impaired gait, posture and balance
Difficulty with production of speech or swallowing
13. COGNITIVE
MANIFESTATION
Difficulty organizing, prioritizing or focusing on
tasks
Lack of flexibility or the tendency to get stuck on a
thought, behavior or action .

14. PSYCHIATRIC MANIFESTATION
Most common - Depression
Feelings of irritability, sadness or apathy
Social withdrawal
Insomnia

17. PHARMACOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT
Tetrabenazine (reduces dopaminergic transmission).
Antidepressants include such drugs as citalopram (Celexa),
Antipsychotic drugs: such as quetiapine (Seroquel),
risperidone (Risperdal) may suppress violent outbursts,
agitation.
Anticonvulsants, such as valproate (Depacon), carbamazepine
(Carbatrol)
18. Nursing Management
Risk for injury from falls and possible skin
breakdown (pressure ulcers, abrasions), resulting
from constant movement.
Imbalanced nutrition, less than body requirements,
due to inadequate intake.
Anxiety and impaired communication from
excessive grimacing and unintelligible speech.
Disturbed thought processes and impaired social
interaction.
