ADC ICRC Exam Questions And
Answers.
Process of addiction: stage one -
\experimental and social use of occasional frequency sometimes as a result of curiosity,
obtaining social acceptance, and thrill seeking. The experience is eutrophic and there
are little noticeable changes.
process of addiction: stage two -
\abuse use becomes regular happening without friends sometimes alone or during the
day time. Use may be a result of stress, anxiety, and trying to maintain eutrophic
feeling. Changes in personality, conflict in relationships, lying.
process of addiction: stage three -
\dependency/addiction daily use and any means necessary to obtain. result of
motivation to avoid pain and escape reality. guilt shame possible suicidal ideation.
Physical deterioration of health. Chance of overdose.
Substance use disorder specifiers -
\in early remission, in sustained remission, on maintenance therapy, and in a controlled
environment
Five components of effective treatment -
\assessment, patient-treatment matching, comprehensive services, relapse prevention,
accountability
central nervous system -
\consists of the brain and spinal cord
peripheral nervous system -
\the sensory and motor neurons that connect the central nervous system to the rest of
the body
somatic nervous system -
\the division of the peripheral nervous system that controls the body's skeletal muscles
autonomic nervous system -
\the part of the peripheral nervous system that controls the glands and the muscles of
the internal organs (such as the heart). Its sympathetic division arouses; its
parasympathetic division calms.
sympathetic nervous system -
\part of the autonomic system that controls the "flight-or-fight" response in organisms.
,parasympathetic nervous system -
\the division of the autonomic nervous system that calms the body, conserving its
energy
Dopamine -
\A neurotransmitter associated with movement, attention and learning and the brain's
pleasure and reward system.
Acetylcholine -
\A neurotransmitter that enables learning and memory and also triggers muscle
contraction
Norepinephrine -
\A neurotransmitter involved in arousal, as well as in learning and mood regulation
Serotonin -
\A neurotransmitter that affects hunger,sleep, arousal, and mood.
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) -
\Neurotransmitter that reduces activity across the synaptic cleft and thus inhibits a range
of behaviors and emotions, especially generalized anxiety.
Glycine -
\an inhibitory neurotransmitter found in the spine.
enkephalins and endorphins -
\pain killing properties extracted from brain and pituitary gland.
Reuptake -
\A process in which neurotransmitters are sponged up from the synaptic cleft by the
presynaptic membrane.
medulla oblongata -
\Part of the brainstem that controls vital life-sustaining functions such as heartbeat,
breathing, blood pressure, and digestion.
Pons -
\A brain structure that relays information from the cerebellum to the rest of the brain
Midbrain -
\A small part of the brain above the pons that integrates sensory information and relays
it upward.
Cerebellum -
\A large structure of the hindbrain that controls fine motor skills.
, Thalamus -
\the brain's sensory switchboard, located on top of the brainstem; it directs messages to
the sensory receiving areas in the cortex and transmits replies to the cerebellum and
medulla
Subthalamus -
\Involved in control of several functional pathways for sensory, motor, and reticular
function
Hypothalamus -
\A neural structure lying below the thalamus; it directs several maintenance activities
(eating, drinking, body temperature), helps govern the endocrine system via the pituitary
gland, and is linked to emotion and reward.
limbic system -
\neural system located below the cerebral hemispheres; associated with emotions and
drives
Cerebrum -
\Largest part of the brain; coordinates thought, reasoning, movement, and memory,
includes the cerebral cortex and the white matter beneath it.
frontal lobe -
\A region of the cerebral cortex that has specialized areas for movement, abstract
thinking, planning, memory, and judgement
parietal lobe -
\receives sensory input for touch and body position
temporal lobe -
\A region of the cerebral cortex responsible for hearing and language.
occipital lobe -
\A region of the cerebral cortex that processes visual information
Beer and Light beer -
\anywhere between 3-6% alcohol
wine and wine coolers -
\coolers contain 4-9% alcohol. Table wine contains 10-14% alcohol.
spirits -
\vodka, whiskey, gin and brandy. Sold 40-50% alcohol content with proof equally twice
the alcohol content.
