This causes communication errors between your brain and the rest of your body. 
Eventually this causes irreversible nerve damage or deterioration of the nerves. 
Genetics and environmental factors cause this. ]]> 2020-12-17 00:56:31 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1026221847 Symptoms schn1920 https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1026224466 - Numbness/weakness

It consists of a long, flexible tube with a valve that keeps fluid from the brain flowing in the right direction and at the proper rate. One end of the tubing is usually placed in one of the brain's ventricles]]> 2020-12-17 18:29:23 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028903649 Treatment https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028904794 No cure. 
Treatment to extend mobility. 
Walking, swallowing and breathing functions should be monitored throughout their life. 
Physical therapy, occupational therapy, surgery, medication. ]]> 2020-12-17 18:29:40 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028904794 cause https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028905473 Parkinson’s is caused by a loss of nerve cells in the part of the brain called the substantia nigra. ]]> 2020-12-17 18:29:49 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028905473 Symptoms https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028909732 Children:

-Medicines called anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs)
-Surgery to remove a small part of the brain that's causing the seizures
-A procedure to put a small electrical device inside the body that can help control seizures
-A special diet (ketogenic diet) that can help control seizures
*Some people need treatment for life. But they might be able to stop treatment if their seizures disappear over time.
Treatment may not be necessary if a patient knows their seizure triggers and are able to avoid them.

Bacterial functions are the 2nd most common cause. Fungal and parasitic infections are very rare causes as well.]]> 2020-12-17 18:32:15 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028915936 Causes victoriahatten https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028916106 Hydrocephalus is caused by an imbalance between how much cerebrospinal fluid (produced by tissues lining the ventricles in the brain) is produced and how much is absorbed into the blood stream. In infants a common cause is by a hemorrhage or sac-like protrusions of the brain]]> 2020-12-17 18:32:17 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028916106 Symptoms https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028917440 -tremor

People who are older are more at risk of developing Alzheimer’s. Family history (genetics), and pre-existing conditions such as Down syndrome, cardiovascular disease and severe head injuries are also risk factors to develop the disease. ]]> 2020-12-17 18:35:29 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028929854 treatments https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028930467 If the cause of the meningitis is unknown, antiviral and antibiotic treatment will likely be used while the cause is determined. Treatment for chronic meningitis is based on the underlying cause. Antifungal medications treat fungal meningitis, and a combination of specific antibiotics can treat tuberculous meningitis. Noninfectious meningitis due to allergic reaction or autoimmune disease may be treated with corticosteroids. In some cases, no treatment may be required because the condition can resolve on its own. Cancer-related meningitis requires therapy for the specific cancer.Acute bacterial meningitis must be treated immediately with intravenous antibiotics and sometimes corticosteroids. Viral meningitis is usually left untreated and will resolve itself.]]> 2020-12-17 18:35:39 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028930467 Causes https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028933553 Parkinson’s is caused by the loss of cells in your brain (neurons). Those neurons create dopamine that are chemical messengers. Many symptoms are caused from the decrease in dopamine levels, which can cause abnormal brain activity and possibly impaired movement. ]]> 2020-12-17 18:36:21 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028933553 treatment https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028936359 the most effective treatment for Parkinson’s is medication. Levodopa is the most effective medication, it is a natural chemical that passes into your brain and is converted into dopamine. ]]> 2020-12-17 18:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028936359 Treatment https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028936655 Treatment for mild to moderate Alzheimer’s are medications called cholinesterase inhibitors. These drugs may help reduce some symptoms and help control some behavioural symptoms. Some examples are glatantamime, rivastigmine, and donepezil. These medications prevent the breakdown of acetylcholine. For moderate to severe Alzheimer’s a medication called namenda an N-methyl D-asparate antagonist is prescribed. The drugs main effect is to decrease symptoms which could allow some people to maintain certain Daily functions longer. ]]> 2020-12-17 18:37:05 UTC https://padlet.com/schn1920/k41btb764nj6871u/wish/1028936655
