Transcript 急性昏迷

Acute
coma
Definition

Unconsciousness , Disturbance of
consciousness

Degression of level of consciousness

Deep inhibitory state of higher
nervous activity
Mechanism

Consciousness
①
Level of awareness of brain
②
Sensation, Perception
Himself , Enviroment
③
Responsiveness
Inner need, External stimulation
④
Expressed
language, Body movement, Behavior

Composition of consciousness

Cognition

Contents :
Orientation, Perceptivity, Attention,
Remembrance, Affection, Thinking and Behavior

Expressed :
Language,Body movement and behavior

Controlled :
Cerebral cortex
Waking state
Controlled
Ascending reticular activating system in
brainstem ( ARAS )
Function
Special sensory conduction →
Unspecial nerve corpuscle in thalamus →
All cerebral cortex
Etiology and pathology
 Disturbance
①
Cerebral cortex
②
Ascending reticular activating
system in brainstem or thalamus
Feature of Ascending
reticular activating system
①
Thin nerve fiber
②
Longer transmiting distance
③
More times for neurone to be exchange
④
Influenced easily by enviroment and drug
Clinical classification
Disturbance of consciousness in level
Coma, Confusion
Special kinds of disturbance of
consciousness
Dementia, lapsus memoriae


Special groups of conscious disturbance
— coma vigil
1)
Open and close eyes
2)
Chew and swallow
3)
Sleep-wake cycles

Decorticate syndrome
1)
Arms flex ,leg straighten
2)
Higher muscular tension
3)
Babinski sign
4)
Cerebral cortex is damaged

Decerebrate syndrom
1)
Four limbs straighten
2)
Higher muscular tension
3)
Babinski sign
4)
All brain is damaged

Akinetic mutism
1)
Muscle relaxation,
2)
No babinski sign
3)
Ascending reticular activating system
in brainstem or thalamus is damaged
Differential diagnosis

Persistent vegetative state
1)
“Unconscious and unaware”
2)
Exhibit sleep-wake cycles
3)
Grinding teeth, swallowing, smiling,
shedding tears, grunting, moaning, or
screaming
4)
Heads and eyes can track moving objects or
turn towards a sound
5)
An impaired connectivity between the
brainstem, thalamus and the cortex
6)
The general brain activity in the cortex is
lower in the PVS state.
Brain death
Complete and irreversible cessation of brain
activity (cerebral, brain stem , cerebellum)

Criteria
1)
Deep coma
2)
No spontaneous respiration
3)
No response to pain, no cranial nerve
reflexes
4)
Spinal reflex may persist
5)
EEG: flat or isoelectric 24h
6)
Exclude for intoxication, hypothermia,
metabolic disturbance or persistent
vegetative state

Hysteria

Syncope
1.
Transient loss of consciousness and posture
2.
A global reduction in blood flow to the brain

Locked-in syndrome
A lesion of the ventral pons.
1)
Alert
2)
Unable to response with speech or facial or
limb movements
3)
Vertical eye movements and blinking
 Abulia
A lesion of both lobus frontalis
 Serious Apathy
 Stuporous state
 Stupor syndrom
A rough response ( like screaming ) to a
noxious stimulus
