IV.ACTIVITIES

A. Materials

Reading about the ailments of the nervous system and thei causes.

B. Procedure

1. Study the readings thoroughly about the ailments of nervous systemand their causes.

2. Fill in the table with the needed information.

Concussion

A sudden blow on the head may cause the nervous system to temporarily lose

its function.This injury is called concussion. However,concussions do not cause

permanent damage.Rest will help the victim recover fast

Confusion

When hard blow causes the brain of the nerves to be bruished,the injury iscalled confusion. A confusion may cause the victim to be unconscious for days. A

confusion may also result in a blood clot in the brain. Surgery is needed to

remove the blood clot.

Encephalitis

Encephalitis is caused by the bite of a common mosquito which carries a

virus. This virus destroys the gray matter in the brain. The disease is also called

sleeping sickness because it causes the person to fall into a coma. A coma isa prolonged unconsciousness.


3/22

Getting rid of the breeding place of mosquitoes can help lessen the

occurrence of this disease.

Meningitis

Meningitis is caused by a kind of bacteria which infect the meninges the

protective layer of the brain and the spinal cord.

The symptoms of this disease are severe headache,fever and chills

followed by back pains and stiffness of the neck.

Meningitis is common among children. Antibiotics are effective in fighting

the bacteria that cause meningitis.

Rabies

Do you know of anybody who was bitten by a mad dog? A mad dog has

the virus called rabies. When a person is bitten by a dog with rabies and the

virus reached the nervous system the person will die. The symptom that person

is infected by rabies is fear of water.

Rabies is very dangerous even if treatment is given to the victim he may

not survive.

Epilepsy

Epilepsy is a disorder of the nervous system. An attack of epilepsy is

characterized by a violent shaking of the body which lats from 2 to 5 minutes.

The muscles become tense. After the shaking,the epileptic person feels aheadache and becomes sleepy.

In some children with epilepsy,an attack of epilepsy may not be characterized

by violent shaking. Instead they stare blankly into space for a few seconds. Some

attacks are accompanied by unusual bahavior such as smacking the lips,chewing

or angry outburst.

Epilepsy is believed to be caused by brain injury at birth,or by a high fever in a

child,or a brain tumor.


4/22

Poliomyetis

Poliomyetis or polio is caused by a virus which attacks the motor nerve cells near

the spinal cord. The infection causes the muscles to become paralyzed. To

prevent polio,children should be vaccinated.

Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy is caused by a damage to the central nervous system.

Sometimes it occurs before or during birth when the oxygen supply to the babys

brain is cut off.

People affected by the cerebral palsy have spastic muscles.These are

muscles that are tensed and contracted. This disease can cause difficulty in

walking and speaking in a person.

Exercises,specialtrainings,and braces all help to make cerebral palsy victims lead

a normal life.

Parkinsons Disease

This disease occurs in older person.It affects the nervous system causing the

arms and legs to shake.Walking and speaking become difficult because the

muscles are stiff.
