Anterograde (Posttraumatic) Amnesia - (ANSWER)Inability to remember events
after an injury.
Basilar Skull Fractures - (ANSWER)Usually occur following diffuse impact to the
head (such as falls, motor vehicle crashes); generally result from extension of a
linear fracture to the base of the skull and can be difficult to diagnose with a
radiograph (x-ray).
Battle's Sign - (ANSWER)Bruising behind an ear over the mastoid process that
may indicate a skull fracture.
Cerebral Edema - (ANSWER)Swelling of the brain.
Closed Head Injury - (ANSWER)Injury in which the brain ahs been injured but the
skin has not been broken and there is no obvious bleeding.
Concussion - (ANSWER)A temporary loss or alteration of part of all of the brain's
abilities to function without actual physical damage to the brain.
Connecting Nerves - (ANSWER)Nerves in the spinal cord that connect the motor
and sensory nerves.
,Coup-Contrecoup Injury - (ANSWER)Dual impacting of the brain into the skull;
coup injury occurs at the point of impact; Contrecoup injury occurs on the
opposite side of impact, as the brain rebounds.
Distraction - (ANSWER)the action of pulling the spine along its length.
Epidural Hematoma - (ANSWER)An accumulation of blood between the skull and
the dura mater.
Eyes-Forward Position - (ANSWER)A head position in which the patient's eyes are
looking straight ahead and the head and torso are in line.
Four-Person Log Roll - (ANSWER)The recommended procedure for moving a
patient with a suspected spinal injury from the ground to a long backboard.
Intervertebral Disk - (ANSWER)The cushion that lies between two vertebrae.
Intracerebral Hematoma - (ANSWER)Bleeding within the brain tissue
(parenchyma) itself; also referred to as an intraparenchymal hematoma.
ICP - (ANSWER)Intracranial Pressure.
Intracranial Pressure (ICP) - (ANSWER)The pressure within the cranial vault.
,Involuntary Activities - (ANSWER)Actions of the body that are not under a
person's conscious control.
Linear Skull Fractures - (ANSWER)Account for 80% of skull fractures; also referred
to as nondisplaced skull fractures; commonly occur in the temporal-parietal
region of the skull; not associated with deformities to the skull.
Meninges - (ANSWER)Three distinct layers of tissue that surround and protect
the brain and the spinal cord within the skull and the spinal canal.
Open Head Injury - (ANSWER)Injury to the head often caused by a penetrating
object in which there may be bleeding and exposed brain tissue.
Primary (Direct) Injury - (ANSWER)An injury to the brain and its associated
structures that is a direct result of impact to the head.
Raccoon Eyes - (ANSWER)Bruising under the eyes that may indicate a skull
fracture.
Retrograde Amnesia - (ANSWER)The inability to remember events leading up to a
head injury.
Secondary (Indirect) Injury - (ANSWER)The "after effects" of the primary injury;
includes abnormal processes such as cerebral edema, increased intracranial
, pressure, cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, and infection; onset is often delayed
following the primary brain injury.
Subarachnoid Hemorrhage - (ANSWER)Bleeding into the subarachnoid space,
where the cerebrospinal fluid circulates.
Subdural Hematoma - (ANSWER)An accumulation of blood beneath the dura
mater but outside the brain.
Subluxation - (ANSWER)A partial or incomplete dislocation.
TBI - (ANSWER)Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) - (ANSWER)A traumatic insult to the brain capable of
producing physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and vocational changes.
Voluntary Activities - (ANSWER)Actions that we consciously perform, in which
sensory input or conscious thought determines a specific muscular activity.
developmental disability - (ANSWER)insufficient development of the brain
resulting in some level of dysfunction or impairment. Can include intellectual,
hearing, or vision impairments that surface during infanthood or childhood
