Cheyne-Stokes respiration (an altered breathing pattern seen with brain damage, increased intracranial pressure and coma), and coma. Often the severity and type of symptoms are related to the severity and cause of the brain disease or damage. For example, alcohol-induced liver damage (alcoholic ...
No subjects in the full stage 0, 0-1 of the vegetative state (apallic syndrome) presented spindling. No significant correlation was found between spindling and the following parameters: gender, the time between the onset of coma and the polygraphic recording, or the site of the lesion....
Coma Dementia Diabetes Heart failure Kidney failure Malnutrition Paralysis Spinal cord injury orspina bifida Vascular problems Pressure Sores Stages and Symptoms There are four stages of pressure sores from mild to severe: Stage I This is the mildest stage. These pressure sores only affect the upper...
This process involves an increase in single-nephron glomerular filtration rate in the remaining nephrons to compensate for the loss of function. While initially beneficial, adaptive hyperfiltration can lead to further injury and long-term decline in kidney function.7,11 3 Most Common Chronic Kidney...

[11]. Delirium, which may be the first manifestation of sepsis, severe agitation, excessive somnolence, stupor, and coma are more often seen in the presence of refractory septic shock. There is convincing evidence that neurological damage may persist even after the recovery from sepsis. ...

For the arousal of coma at the subacute and chronic stage, several new approaches have been developed in the last 10 years. They are dorsal column stimulation, deep brain stimulation, median nerve stimulation and vagal nerve stimulation. The action mechanism of these treatments for arousal of ...
Conditions that decrease the ability of a person to avoid cold insult include (1) emaciation or fatigue, (2) dehydration, a major problem in the cold, with subsequent blood acidity, mental derangement, coma, and death, (3) neuromuscular disease, or previous freezing or nonfreezing cold injur...
