SENSATION
SENSATION
- THE CONSCIOUS OR SUBCONSCIOUS AWARENESS OF CHANGES IN THE EXTERNAL OR INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT. PERCEPTION - THE CONSCIOUS AWARENESS AND INTERPRETATION OF SENSATION AND IS PRIMARILY A FUNCTION OF THE CEREBRAL CORTEX.
SENSORY MODALITIES
THE GENERAL SENSES
- SOMATIC SENSORY MODALITIES - tactile sensation ( touch, pressure and vibration ) - termal sensation. - pain sensation. - proprioceptive sensation. - VISCERAL SENSATION - provide information about conditions within internal organ THE SPECIAL SENSES - sensory modalities of smell, taste, vision, hearing and equilibrium.
SENSORY RECEPTORS.
FREE NERVE ENDING. ENCAPSULATED NERVE ENDING. SEPARATE CELLS THAT SYNAPSE WITH
SOMATIC SENSATION
TACTILE SENSATION / MODALITY
- touch - pressure. - vibration - itch - tickle THERMAL SENSATION / MODALITY - cold receptor 10 c - 40 c. - warm receptor 32 C - 48 C. - < 10 C / > 48 C, stimulate pain receptors
SOMATIC SENSATION
PAIN SENSATION / MODALITY
- Fast pain ; - within 0,1 second. - medium-diameter myelinated A fibers. - Slow pain; - begin a second or more. - small-diameter unmyelinated C fibers. - According to arise stimulation ; - superficial somatic pain. - deep somatic pain. - visceral pain. PROPRIOCEPTIVE SENSATION / MODALITY

SOMATIC SENSATION
PROPRIOCEPTIVE SENSATION / MODALITY
- PROPRIOCEPTORS ; - MUSCLE SPINDLES WITHIN SKELETAL MUSCLES. - TENDON ORGAN WITHIN TENDON. - JOINT KINESTHETIC RECEPTORS WITHIN SYNOVIAL JOINT CAPSULES.
- fine touch - stereognosis - proprioception - vibratory sensations ANTEROLATERAL ( SPINOTHALAMIC ) PATHWAY - The lateral spinothalamic tract - convey sensory impulses for pain and temperatr - The anterior spinothalamic tract - tickle - crude touch. - itch - pressure. SOMATIC PATHWAYS TO THE CEREBELLUM - Tract ; - the posterior spinocerebellar tract. - the anterior spinocerebellar tract. - Critical for posture, balance and coordination of skilled movement

CORD. RECEIVE INPUT FROM ; - SOMATIC SENSORY RECEPTORS. - HIGHER CENTER INTHE BRAIN. HELP COORDINATE RHYTHMIC ACTIVITY IN SPECIFIC MUSCLE GROUPS
PLANNING, INITIATING AND DIRECTING SEQUENCEAS OF VOLUNTARY MOVEMENT. U.M.N. ORIGINATE IN MOTOR CENTER OF BRAIN STEM; THE RED NUCLEUS, THE VESTIBULAR NUCLEUS, THE SUPERIOR COLLICULUS AND THE RETICULAR FORMATION. U.M.N. FROM THE BRAIN STEM ; - REGULATE MUSCLE TONE. - CONTROL POSTURAL MUSCLES. - ORIENTATION OF THE HEAD AND BODY.
WITH ; - MOTOR AREA OF THE CEREBRAL CORTEX. - THALAMUS. - SUBTHALAMIC NUCLEI. - SUBSTANTIA NIGRA. THE CIRCUITS HELP ; - INITIATE AND TERMINATE MOVEMENT. - SUPRESS UNWANTED MOVEMENT. - ESTABLISH A NORMAL LEVEL OF MUSCLE TONE.
CEREBELLAR NEURONS
AID MOVEMENT BY CONTROLLING THE
ACTIVITY OF U.M.N. NEURAL CIRCUITS INTERCONNECT THE CEREBELLUM WITH ; - MOTOR AREAS OF CEREBRAL COTEX VIA THE THALAMUS. - BRAIN STEM. A PRIME FUNCTION ; COORDINATES BODY MOVEMENT AND HELP MAINTAIN NORMAL POSTURE AND BALANCE.
PARALYSIS
L.M.N. ---- FLACCID PARALYSIS.
- muscles on same side. - voluntary action ( - ). - reflex (- ). - muscle tone decreased or lost. - muscle remains limp or flaccid. U.M.N. --- SPASTIC PARALYSIS - musles on opposite dide. - reflexes are exaggerated. - pathological reflexes such as the babinski sign appear. - muslce tone is increased.
provide input to l.m.n. Via axon that extend directly from the cerebral cortex. INDIRECT MOTOR PATHWAYS - provide input to l.m.n. From motor centers in the brain stem. - brain stem centers, receive signals fron neuron in the ganglia basal, cerebellum and cerebral cortex.
INPUT FROM - sensory area. - association area. - motor area. - substansia nigra. OUT PUT FROM THE BASAL GANGLIA CAMES FROM - the globus pallidus. - substansia nigra. FEED BACK SIGNALS TO THE MOTOR CORTEX BY WAY OF THE THALAMUS THIS CIRCUIT, FROM CORTEX TO BASAL GANGLIA TO THALAMUS AND TO CORTEX APPEAR TO FUNCTION IN INTIATING AND TERMINATING MOVEMENT.
BEDORE BODY MOVEMENT OCCUR. NEURON IN THE CAUDATE NUCLEUS GENERATE IMPULSES JUST BEFORE EYE MOVEMENT OCCUR THE BASAL GANGLIA ALSO SUPPRESS UNWANTD MOVEMENT BY THEIR INHIBITORY EFFECTS ON THE THALAMUS AND SUPERIOR COLLICULUS AND INFLUENCE MUSCLE TONE. THE GLOBUS PALLIDUS SENDS IMPULSES INTO THE RETICULAR FORMATION THAT REDUCE MUSCLE TONE
MOVEMENT. THE CEEBELLUM MONITORS ACTUAL MOVEMENT. THE CEREBELLUM COMPARES THE COMMAND SIGNALS WITH SENSORY INFORMATION. IF THERE IS A DISCREPANCY BETWEEN INTENDED AND ACTUAL MOVEMENT, THE CEREBELLUM SENDS OUT CORRECTIVE FEEDBACK TO U.M.N.
