Carry somatosensory information

Interactions may be largely unproductive

Repeated stimulation is required to maintain consciousness

Pinna

Areas of primary somatosensory

Interactions may get diverted

Process of knowing and inudes both awareness and judgement

Difficulty accomplishing calculations

Responses to more discriminative sensations

Deep sensations

Discriminative touch

Difficult to arous from a somnolent state and is frequently confused when awake

Primary somatosensory area occupies a lateral slip called

Fast conducting fibers

Decreased acuity of many sensations is considered a characteristic finding with aging

Vibration

Muscle spindles

In medical record docu, the results of this mental statis screening are often abbreviated “oriented x3”

Defined sum of an individual’s learning and experience in life

Respond to changes and stimuli within muscle, tendon, fascia, ligaments and joint capsules

Patient cannot be aroused by any type of stimulation

Respond to mechanical deformation of receptor or surrounding area

Three pillar road map

Pacinian corpuscle

Ability of the brain to organize, interpret and use sensory information

Free nerve endings

Respond to changes in temperature

Sensation received from the skin and musculoskeletal system, as opposed to that from specialized senses such as sight or hearing

Respond to light within visible spectrum

Visual acuity is typically recorded at __ feet (__m) from snellen chart

Reflex motor responses may or may not be seen

Sensory receptors are located at the distal end of an afferent nerve fiber

Patient’s ability to interpret use of words outside of their usual context or meaning

Cold

Proactive strategy that uses sensory information obtained from experience

Broca’s area

We can observe impairments in motor behavior but can only hypothesize that they truly result from faulty sensory integration mechanisms

Superficial sensations

Compared with anterolateral spinothalamic pathway, dorsal column medial lemniscal system make up a crudee, more primitive system

Mastoid process

Respond to noxious stimuli and result in perception of pain

Neurological process that organizes sensation from one’s own body and from the environment and makes it possible to use the body effectively within environment

Uses sensory info received during movement to monitor and adjust output

General class of stimulus, determined by the type of energy transmitted by stimulus and the receptors specializes to sense that energy

Hot

Respond to chemical substances and are responsible for taste, smells, oxygen levels, carbon dioxide and osmolality

Inability to calculate

Combined cortical sensations

GTO

Difficulty focusing or maintaining attention on a question or task

We can directly observe CNS processing, integration of sensory information or the motor planning process

Wernicke’s area

Specificity of nerve fiber sensitivity to a single modality of sensation

Sensory intergration disorder directly affects both motor and cognitive learning

Examines foundational mathematical abilities

Patient responds only to strong, generally noxious stimuli and returns to unconscious state when stimulation is stopped

Patient is awake and attentive to normal levels of stimulation

Soundness of cortical sensory processing, including propeioception, vibration sense, stereognosis and cutaneous sensation

Selective awareness of the environmeny or responsiveness to stimulus or task withour being distracted by other stimulus

When aroused, patient is unable to interact

Light touch

Sophisticated cognitive function

Patient appears drowsy and may fall asleep if not stimulated in some way

Deep sensations

State of responsiveness of the hyman system to sensory stimulation

Movement and touch

Superficial sensations

Initiates self protective reactions and responds to stimuli that are potentially harmful in nature

Slow conducting fibers

Patient’s awareness of time, person and place
