1. An environmental factor or virus in genetically
susceptible individuals may initially trigger this
process.
2. The activated T cells in the systemic circulation
migrate to the CNS, disrupting the blood-brain
barrier.
Subsequent antigen-antibody reaction within the
CNS activates the inflammatory response and leads
to the demyelination of axons.
3. Initially, attacks on the myelin sheaths of the
neurons in the brain and the spinal cord result in
damage to the myelin sheath. However, the nerve
fibre is not affected.
4. As ongoing inflammation occurs, the nearby
oligodendrocytes are affected, and the myelin
loses the ability to regenerate.
5 Eventually damage occurs to the underlying
axon. Nerve impulse transmission is disrupted,
resulting in the permanent loss of nerve function.
6. As inflammation subsides, glial scar tissue
replaces the damaged tissue, leading to the
formation of hard. sclerotic plaques.
Which suggestion would the nurse - Use slip-on shoes.
