Barb takes a "journey" through the brain—the Cerebral Cortex (all four lobes and their functions), and shows how to assess the 4 lobes as well as pathophysiology, including head injuries, brain tumors, and dementias; the basal ganglia and assessment, including the patient with a movement disorder—Parkinson's disease, Huntington's chorea, and athetosis; the brain stem—assessment and clinical correlations including cranial nerves; spinal cord and the reflex arc. It's a great lecture for neuro novices as well as seasoned neuro nurses—everyone learns some new tidbits as well as refreshing some old tidbits. (website)
