Membranes between the CNS and its bony covering are what?
Arachnoid mater
What is the name of covering of axon?
Because this is tissue from the brain (CNS), it is an oligodendrocyte which wraps around axons of neurons in the CNS to form a fatty myelin sheath. If it were PNS axons in say spinal or cranial nerves, the answer would be be Schwann cells.
What are the three connective tissue membranes covering and protecting CNS structure collectively known as?
Beneath the skull are three layers of covering known collectively as the meninges. From the outside in, they are: the dura mater, the arachnoid and the pia mater.
Are axons most located and protected within the CNS?
axons
What protects the CNS?
the cerebrospinal fluid and the meninges protects the CNS(central nervous system)
Membranes between the CNS and its bony covering are what?
Arachnoid mater
How deadly are central nervous system infections?
The fatality rate associated with CNS infections ranges from 10% to as high as 40%.
What is the treatment for CNS infections?
A two-pronged approach is taken to treat CNS infections. First, antibiotic therapy against an array of potential infectious bacteria is begun. The second stage involves surgery to drain the infected site.
What are tests for CNS infections?
X-ray, MRI, and CT scans. X-rays detect lesions in internal organs. Computed axial tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used to diagnose CNS parasitic infections
What is the greatest danger to a patient who has had damage to the skin?

Why are CNS infections so dangerous?
As pus and other material from an infection accumulate, pressure is exerted on the brain or spinal cord. This pressure can damage the nervous system tissue, possibly permanently. Without treatment, a CNS infection is fatal.
What is the most cause of sepsis in hospitalized patient?
Bacterial infections
What is the name of covering of axon?

How do you catch infections?
Nosocomial Infections are those that are hospital acquired, one which a patient catches during a hospital visit
What most commonly causes surgical site infections?
The most common source of pathogens that cause surgical site infections is the patient.
