CHAPTER 9 – Nervous System The Language of Neurology Chapter 9 Teaching Overview The nervous system is divided into two major components, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The nervous system controls, coordinates and facilitates communication between the different systems and parts of the body. In the CNS, the brain acts as a central computer that controls all bodily functions. The PNS acts as a network that relays messages back and forth to the different parts of the body. Students sometimes have trouble understanding the terminology of the nervous system, particularly the many anatomical divisions and subdivisions of the peripheral nervous system. Emphasize the different roles of each anatomical division and subdivision of the PNS to help students distinguish between them and understand the terminology. As with all lessons in this Lesson Planning Guide, you can and should modify them to best meet the needs of your students, your schedule, and your curricula. Teacher to Teacher: • Students find the diseases of the nervous system particularly interesting. There are many interesting stories and case studies relating to the nervous system, such as John Fleischman’s Phineas Gage: A Gruesome but True Story About Brain Science (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 2002) and Oliver Sacks’ The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat (New York: Simon & Schuster, 1985). This chapter is a great opportunity to bring in some of these interesting case studies and discuss them with students. • Pain management is a subspecialty for an anesthesiologist who treats chronic pain. This is a very current topic and this textbook covers it quite well. Use this information to enhance the students’ understanding of one of the major functions of the nervous system. Chapter 9: Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of the lessons in this chapter, your students will . . . 9.1 Specify the functions of the nervous system. 9.2 Differentiate the different components of the structure of the nervous system. 9.3 Define the structures and functions of the cells of the nervous system. 9.4 Discuss the structure and functions of the brain. 9.5 Identify the functional brain regions. 9.6 Describe the structure and functions of the cranial nerves. 9.7 Define the structure and functions of the spinal cord and meninges. 9.8 Explain disorders of the brain. 9.9 Discuss disorders of the meninges. 9.10 describe disorders of the cranial nerves. 9.11 Identify disorders of the myelin sheath. 9.12 Explain disorders of the spinal cord. 9.13 Discuss disorders of the peripheral nerves. 9.14 Describe congenital anomalies of the nervous system. 9.15 Explain the diagnostic procedures used in neurology. 9.16 Discuss the therapeutic procedures used in neurology. 9.17 Describe the pharmacologic agents used in neurology. 9.18 Identify the different modalities of pain management. 9.A Write the medical terms of neurology to communicate and document accurately and precisely in any health care setting. 9.B Use the medical terms of neurology to communicate verbally with accuracy and precision in any health care setting. 9.C Construct medical terms of neurology using their word elements. 9.D Deconstruct medical terms of neurology into their word elements. 9.E Identify health professionals involved in the care of patients with neurological problems. 9.F Recognize approved abbreviations used in neurology. Note: These lessons are designed with ultimate flexibility in mind. When customizing the lessons for your own class, always choose activities that are most relevant to your curriculum, your students, and your teaching goals—especially if you do not have time to implement all the provided activities into your class period.

Step 1: Have students work in pairs. Give each pair a large sheet of paper and tell them to sketch out a simple outline of the nervous system using a pencil. Draw, and then label its subdivisions (central nervous system: brain and spinal cord; peripheral: sensory and motor divisions, including the visceral and somatic motor divisions.) Step 2: Instruct students to use a different colored marker to outline each of the two major divisions (central nervous system and peripheral nervous system). The following parts or subdivisions of each division should be labeled: CNS: • Brain • Spinal cord PNS: • Sensory division (1) Visceral nerves (2) Somatic nerves Large sheets of paper Pencils Colored markers Sticky notes 9.1.1 9.1.2 9.1.3 9.1.4 • Motor division (1) Visceral motor division (Autonomic Nervous System) a.

Step 1: Toss the ball to any student, then read one of the questions out loud. Step 2: If the student caught the ball, then he/she can either answer the question or pass the ball to another student. If the student dropped the ball when you threw it, the student must attempt to answer the question. Step 3: If the student answers the question correctly, then he/she gets to toss the ball to a new student to answer a new question. If the student does not answer correctly, he/she must walk the ball back up to the instructor. Step 4: The game continues in the same way until all the questions are answered, or all students have had a turn (repeating questions can be a good way to reinforce learning; it’s okay if the same question is asked several times of different students.)

Relate this to a stroke on the right side of the brain. • The human brain contains 100 billion neurons; the rate of neuron growth during fetal development is 250,000 neurons/minute.

(1) Medical Terms in Patient Documentation YOU ARE Tanisha Colis, an electro neurodiagnostic technologist working for Raul Cardenas, MD, a neurologist at Fulwood Medical Center YOUR PATIENT IS Mrs. Suzanne Kalish, a 42-year-old social worker employed by the medical center. She has recently had an exacerbation of her symptoms due to Multiple Sclerosis (MS). She is going to have a Visual Evoked Potential test, followed by an MRI of her brain and spinal cord. Here is the conversation that takes place between you and Suzanne Kalish: Tanisha: Good morning, Mrs. Kalish, I’m Tanisha Colis, the technologist who’ll be performing your Visual Evoked Potential test. How are you feeling? Suzanne: I’ve been doing okay for the last four or five years. Then, a few weeks ago, I started dragging my foot like a wounded witch. I’ve got to hang onto the walls to stay vertical. I’m tired out, can’t come to work. It’s a struggle to walk the few yards just to pick up the mail. Tanisha: The MRI you are going to have today will give us a lot of information about what’s going on. Suzanne: My mind is going “wheelchair, wheelchair, wheelchair.” Especially since in the last couple of days the vision in my right eye has gotten all blurred. Tanisha: That’s the reason you are having the Visual Evoked Potential test. Suzanne: I hate this disease. If I had cancer, I’d have a chance. I’d fight it to the end, whatever that would be. Nobody’s ever beat MS. You can only lose. It can be kind and leave you for a while, but it’s never far away. Tanisha: Let me help you up and we’ll go get this test done. Suzanne: I can manage, thank you. (2) Medical Terms Identified: Medical Term Definition (3) Medical Terms Applied: Mrs. Kalish has asked you to explain the Visual Evoked Potential test to her in more detail. Write your explanation of this test and why it is being given to Mrs. Kalish in the blank below. Use additional books, articles, or the Internet information to help you answer this question. (4) Discussion Questions: 1. What is the difference between a neurologist and a neurosurgeon? 2. What is the role of MRI, PET, and CT scans (and other tests of this nature) as an aid in diagnosis conditions? How limited were physicians in diagnosing conditions when they only had X-rays to work with?
