Spina Bifida
(1) Spina bifida is a birth defect where part of the spinal cord and its meninges are exposed through an opening in the backbone. (2) It results from the neural tube failing to close properly during early pregnancy. (3) Spina bifida can range from mild to severe depending on factors like the size and location of the defect and presence of complications such as hydrocephalus or Chiari malformation.
Spina bifida
Spina bifida is a birth defect where the backbone and spinal canal do not close before birth, causing part of the spinal cord to protrude out of the back. It affects around 1 in 800 infants and can range from a mild condition where the spine does not fully close to more severe cases where parts of the spinal cord and membranes protrude out. Symptoms include issues with bladder/bowel control, paralysis, and hydrocephalus in many cases. Prenatal screening and folic acid supplementation can help reduce risks, while surgery after birth and lifelong treatment can address symptoms and complications.

My name is Dahianara Moran and I believe being the parent of a child with Spina Bifida is like having a sixth sense, something like a Super Mom. We learn quickly how to defend our little ones from the awkward moments, but most important, we come to enjoy the little things, value our moments, and commit to change the way the world defines “Disability”.
Neural tube defect presentation
Neural tube defects are the most common congenital abnormality in India which can be easily prevented with due information and better nursing practices. Neural Tube Defects can be prevented with intake of folic acid.
MYELOMENINGOCELE copy.pptx a slide describing the condition
Myelomeningocele is a disorder of the nervous system particularly the spine and spinal cord, before we go further in this presentation there are some terms to know to aid understanding.
➢Neural tube; The neural tube forms the early brain and spine, As development progresses, the top of the neural tube becomes the brain, and the rest of the tube becomes the spinal cord. An NTD happens when this tube doesn't close completely somewhere along its length. Neural tube closure is completed 28 days (four weeks) from conception.
➢Alpha fetoprotein; AFP is a protein that the liver makes when its cells are growing and dividing to make new cells. AFP is normally high in unborn babies. After birth, AFP levels drop very low. Healthy children and adults who aren't pregnant have very little AFP in their blood. Maternal AFP serum level is used to screen for Down syndrome, neural tube defects, and other chromosomal abnormalities.
➢Spinal bifida; Spina bifida is a condition that affects the spine and is usually apparent at birth. It is a type of neural tube defect (NTD).

Spina bifida is a birth disorder that involves the incomplete development of the spine. In the first month of pregnancy, a special set of cells forms the “neural tube;” the top of the tube becomes the brain, and the remainder becomes the spinal cord and structures around it. In spina bifida, the neural tube doesn’t close completely and some of the bones of the spine do not close in the back. This can result in an opening anywhere along the spine and may cause damage to the spinal cord and nerves.There are four types of spina bifida: occulta, closed neural tube defects, meningocele, and myelomeningocele. The symptoms of spina bifida vary from person to person, depending on the type and level of involvement. Most cases are mild and do not require special treatment. The more serious cases involve nerve damage.
Occulta is the mildest and most common form in which one or more bones of the spinal column (vertebrae) are malformed. The name “occulta,” which means “hidden,” indicates that a layer of skin covers the opening in the bones of the spine. It usually shows no symptoms and is often found by accident on an x-ray or similar test.
Closed neural tube defects are a diverse group of disorders in which the spine may have malformations of fat, bone, or the membranes (the meninges) that cover the spinal cord. Many of these neural tube defects require surgery in childhood. People with this type of spina bifida may have weakness of the legs and trouble with bowel and bladder control. These issues may change or progress as children grow. It is important to have close communication with doctors to minimize these changes as much as possible.
Meningocele occurs when the meninges protrude through the spine and cause a sac of spinal fluid on the back. This fluid is typically only around the brain and spine, but a problem with the bony covering over the spine allows it to poke out. The malformation contains no nerves and may or may not be covered by a layer of skin. Individuals with meningocele may have minor symptoms.Myelomeningocele is the most severe form of spina bifida. A portion of the spinal cord or nerves are exposed in a sac through an opening in the spine that may or may not be covered by the meninges. The opening can be closed surgically while the baby is in utero or shortly after the baby is born. Most people with myelomeningocele experience changes in brain structure, leg weakness, and bladder and bowel dysfunction.
Myelomeningocele is often called a "snowflake condition" because no two people with the condition are the same. Typically, if the opening in the spine is lower down the back, the person will experience less symptoms. People with myelomeningocele require close follow-up with physicians throughout their childhood and lifespan to maximize their function and prevent complications like kidney failure.Complications of spina bifida may include:
Abnormal sensation or paralysis, which mostly occurs with closed neural tube defects and myelomenin

Spina bifida group
Spina bifida is a birth defect where the spine and spinal cord do not form properly, leaving a gap in the vertebrae. It is one of the most common severe birth defects, affecting around 1,500-2,000 babies each year in the US. There are three main types ranging from mild to severe. The most severe type is myelomeningocele which can cause paralysis and neurological problems. The exact causes are unknown but risk factors include family history, folic acid deficiency, obesity, diabetes, and certain medications. Detection methods include blood tests, ultrasound, and amniocentesis. Management involves early surgery, antibiotics to prevent infection, physical therapy, and assistive devices.

Spina bifida is a neural tube defect where the backbone does not fully close around the spinal cord during embryonic development. It can cause damage to the spinal cord and nerves. The main types are myelomeningocele, meningocele, and spina bifida occulta. Myelomeningocele is the most severe type, often causing mobility and bladder issues. Spina bifida is diagnosed through prenatal tests like ultrasound and AFP levels and treated after birth through surgery. Taking folic acid before and during pregnancy can help prevent spina bifida.

Spina bifida is a birth defect where the spinal column does not fully close around the spinal cord. It occurs when the neural tube fails to close properly during early embryonic development. The main types are spina bifida occulta (mildest), meningocele (meninges protrude through opening), and myelomeningocele (most severe where spinal cord and membranes protrude). Symptoms range from minor skin marks to paralysis depending on location and severity of the defect. Treatment involves surgery to cover the exposed tissues and may include shunts to drain excess cerebrospinal fluid. Lifelong management focuses on rehabilitation, prevention of infections and complications, and addressing mobility, bladder, and bowel issues.
Spina bifida occulta
This is a mild form of spina bifida which is very common. Estimates vary but between 5% and 10% of people may have spina bifida occulta.

This document discusses neural tube defects, specifically spina bifida. It defines spina bifida as a birth defect involving incomplete development of the spinal cord or its coverings. There are two main types - spina bifida occulta, which is usually asymptomatic, and spina bifida manifesta, which includes meningocele (protrusion of meninges) and myelomeningocele (protrusion of meninges and spinal cord). Causes include genetic factors and folic acid deficiency. Symptoms depend on the type but may include bladder/bowel issues or developmental delays. Treatment involves surgery to repair the defect and address any related issues like hydrocephalus. Nursing care focuses on preventing infection, managing elimination
Ntd
This document discusses neural tube defects (NTDs), which are birth defects where an opening remains in the spine or skull early in development. The main types are open defects like spina bifida and anencephaly, and closed defects. NTDs can be caused by folic acid deficiency, genetics, medications, and other factors. Symptoms vary depending on the specific defect. Diagnosis may involve ultrasounds and alpha-fetoprotein testing. Treatment ranges from surgery to palliative care, while prevention focuses on adequate folic acid intake before and during pregnancy.
The neural tube defects
The neural tube is the embryonic precursor to the central nervous system. During development, the neural tube forms as the neural folds lift and fuse together. Improper closure of openings in the neural tube can cause neural tube defects like anencephaly or spina bifida. Anencephaly involves failure of the brain and skull to develop properly. Spina bifida occurs when the spinal cord, brain, or their protective coverings do not fully develop, and can range from mild to severe depending on the type and extent of involvement. Treatment options depend on the specific type and symptoms of each defect.
3 Major Issues with Prenatal and Postnatal Spina Bifida Surgery
Spina bifida is a birth defect where the spine and spinal cord do not form properly. There are three main types: spina bifida occulta, meningocele, and myelomeningocele. Spina bifida is caused by failure of the spine to close during the first month of pregnancy and can be reduced by adequate folic acid intake before and during pregnancy. Symptoms range from no outward signs to paralysis, incontinence, and hydrocephalus depending on the severity. While there is no cure, prenatal or postnatal surgery can help correct the condition.

Neural tube defects occur when the neural tube fails to close properly during early embryonic development, leaving an opening in the spine or skull. The most common type is spina bifida, where a split forms in the spine. Spina bifida can range from mild (occulta) where there is a small defect but no problems, to more severe forms (meningocele and myelomeningocele) where the spinal cord or membranes may protrude out and cause paralysis and bowel/bladder issues. Risk factors include low folic acid, diabetes, and seizures. Treatment involves surgery soon after birth to cover the opening and manage complications like hydrocephalus.

Neural tube defects occur during early embryonic development between 18-26 days of gestation when the neural tube is forming. Spina bifida is a neural tube defect where there is a midline defect of the bone, skin, spinal column and/or spinal cord. Health professionals can help prevent neural tube defects by promoting folic acid supplementation before and during early pregnancy, as folic acid deficiency is a risk factor. The prognosis for a child with spina bifida is generally good if they receive proper medical care and support.

Congenital disorders, also known as birth defects, occur during fetal development and result in structural or functional anomalies. An estimated 6% of babies worldwide are born with a congenital disorder. Spina bifida is a birth defect that causes the backbone to not form properly, potentially damaging the spinal cord and nerves. It ranges in severity from spina bifida occulta, which has a hidden spine defect but normal nerves, to myelomeningocele, the most severe type in which the meninges and spinal nerves protrude out of the back through an opening in the spine. Prevention focuses on adequate prenatal folic acid intake by the mother. Treatment involves surgical repair and multidisciplinary care.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
