Neurology Compressive and Demyelinating Illness in the Central Nervous System BMS 150 Week 3 Objectives Describe the pathophysiologic mechanisms of demyelination and the consequences of demyelination on neuronal function Develop a model of the pathophysiology of MS, incorporating pathological findings, immunological mechanisms, and known etiological factors Describe the general epidemiology, common clinical features, and key diagnostic aspects of MS Describe the time course of MS by: Distinguishing between the three major patterns of MS progression Identifying the major signs and symptoms that are typical of early MS Comparing the clinical features of flares and periods in between flares Distinguishing between the pathologic appearance of an active and an active plaque Objectives Define the following terms: Neuropathy, neuralgia, neuritis, radiculopathy, polyneuropathy, multiple mononeuropathy Describe the basic epidemiology, pathogenesis, major clinical features, and prognosis of the hereditary sensory and motor neuropathies Describe the basic epidemiology, pathogenesis, major clinical features, and prognosis of Guillain-Barre syndrome Describe the pathophysiologic mechanisms by which nerve compression leads to neurological damage Describe the basic epidemiology, pathogenesis, major clinical features, and prognosis of Bell’s palsy
