What else can I help you with?
What pathway does a nerve impulse follow after initiated into a receptor?
nerve my a$$ nerve
Starting from the spinal cord trace a motor pathway to the adductor muscle of the thigh Include the spinal cord root spinal nerve nerve plexus and specific peripheral nerve involved in the pathway?
starting in the spinal cord, trace a motor pathway to the adductor muscles of the thigh. Include the spinal cord root, spinal nerve, nerve plexus, and specific peripheral nerve involved in the pathway
Why do you have a nerve pathway?
that's because god made us like that. no im kidding, but it is true, but anyway, we have a nerve pathway because we do!:p
Providing a pathway for the transmission of nerve impulses is the responsibility of the?
peripheral nerve system
The sciatic nerve is composed of what two nerves?
the common peroneal nerve and the tibial nerve:Common Peroneal Nerve, comprised of nerve fibers from L5, S1, S2, and S3.Tibial Nerve comprised of nerve fibers from L4, L5, S1, S2 and S3)
What nerve acts as the afferent pathway in the pupillary reflex?
The optic nerve (cranial nerve II) carries sensory information about light intensity to the brain as part of the afferent pathway in the pupillary reflex.
What is displacement of the bilateral L5 nerve roots in the neuroforamen and displacement of the left S1 nerve root as it exits the canal?
The nerves coming off the spinal cord at L5 and S1 are being pushed out of their normal position.
What does paracentral disc herniation at the L5-S1 level causing mass effect upon the left S1 nerve root mean?
It means that the disc between L5-S1 has protruded out to one side (not centrally), and is affecting (most likely compressing) the S1 nerve root which is below the level of the herniation (the L5 nerve root has already exited the IVF). From this report I am assuming you are having some sensory or motor problems in your lower limbs?!
What is a contralateral pathway?
A contralateral motor pathway is a neutral pathway located at the opposite side of the brain. It is on the eighth nerve of the cochlear nucleus.
What does abutting the left s1 nerve root mean?
Abutting the left S1 nerve root means that a structure, such as a herniated disc or a mass, is in close proximity to the left S1 nerve root, which originates from the sacral region of the spinal cord. This contact can potentially lead to compression or irritation of the nerve root, resulting in symptoms like pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas innervated by that nerve. It is important to monitor such findings through imaging and clinical assessment to determine if treatment is necessary.
What testing is done to determine permanent S1 nerve damage?
To determine permanent S1 nerve damage, clinicians typically perform a combination of neurological examinations and diagnostic tests. Electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies can assess the electrical activity and conduction speed of the S1 nerve. Imaging studies, such as MRI, may be used to identify any structural issues affecting the nerve. Additionally, sensory and motor function assessments help evaluate the extent of damage.
Where do you feel pain when the S1 nerve is pinched?
When the S1 nerve is pinched, pain can be felt in the lower back, buttocks, back of the thigh, calf, outside edge of the foot, and in some cases, the little toe. This type of pain is known as sciatica and can be sharp, shooting, or burning in nature.
