Deep tendon reflex (DTR) : Deep tendon reflexes (DTRs) examination is an important part of physical exam. It is a part of neurologic examination and evaluates the functions of associate nerves and muscles. In this video, you can see a
Upper Limb Neurological Examination : This video demonstrates a complete neurological examination of upper limbs. It involves general inspection, assessing tone and rigidity of the limbs, power of muscles, tendon reflexes, sensation, proprioception, co-ordination and etc.
seizure first aid : Seizure, also known as convulsion or faint, can be caused by disruption to the electrical activity of the brain. The most common cause of it, is epilepsy. This video discusses about pathology, etiology and symptoms of
nistagmus : Nystagmus is a condition of usually involuntary eye movement. In many cases it may result in reduced or limited vision. Due to the involuntary movement of the eye, it has also been called “dancing eyes”. This video shows a
meningitidis examination : This video shows an unreal case of meningitis. The symptoms of meningitis, calculating GCS score, brudzinski’s and Kernig’s tests and how to manage it are all discussed in this video.
Lumbar Puncture : This video explains how to place a lumbar puncture (LP) on a both real and unreal case. How to find the best site for puncture, how to anesthetize and how to collect CSF sample are also shown
Lower Limb Neurological Examination : This video demonstrates a complete neurological examination of lower limbs. It involves general inspection, assessing gait, tone, rigidity and movements of the limbs, power of muscles, tendon reflexes, sensation, proprioception and etc. also, some special
lobar haemorrhage in haemorrhagic stroke : This video discusses about classification of hemorrhagic strokes. The interpretation of MRI scan and pathology of the affected vessels are also provided in this video. Also, other symptoms and differential diagnoses are shown here.
Kernig’s Test : Kernig’s test or meningeal stretch test is used for assessing neurological irritation of meninges layers or nerve roots in suspicious patients. This video explains how to perform a Kernig’s test.
Hypertensive haemorrhage in haemorrhagic stroke : In this video, different ways of brain hemorrhage classification and hypertensive hemorrhage, in particular, is discussed. Hypertensive hemorrhage is a primary cause of stroke. Also, the common sites of hemorrhage, MRI imaging changes and
hyperacute infarction in ischaemic stroke: Ischemic stroke is usually because of thromboembolism. In addition to etiology, this video discusses about Imaging of acute stroke, managing of ischemic stroke, hyperacute findings and etc.
headache explanation : There are two main types of headaches: primary and secondary, which is also known as red flag headaches. Subtypes of these types of headache and their features and also their management and treatment are discussed in this
haemorrhagic transfornation in ischaemic stroke : This video discusses about hemorrhagic transformation of ischemic stroke and how to distinguish it from other strokes. The manifestations of hemorrhagic transformation on MRI imaging are explained here.
fogging in ischaemic stroke : CT fogging is a transient return of infarcted cortex to a near normal appearance. The phenomenon of CT fogging in ischemic stroke and its etiology are discussed in this video.
evolution from acute to chronic ischaemic stroke : This video explains the temporal evolution of ischemic stroke and the differences between acute and chronic ischemic stroke. The acute phase lasts about 2 weeks. The chronic phase begins months to years
Essential tremor : Essential tremor is a neurological disorder that causes involuntary and rhythmic shaking. The shaking usually occurs in hands. This video shows a case of essential tremor and an electronic device that can resolve tremor.
