Neurologic ExamAssessmentDescriptive, systematicReference point for serial assessment
Exam goalsPrimary CNS event versus secondaryImplications:
short and long-term outcomeinvestigations
BreathingAbnormalities of respiration can help localize
but almost always in the context of other signsCentral-reflex Hyperpnea (midbrain-
hypothalamus)Apneustic, cluster, Ataxic (Lower pons)Loss of automatic breathing (medulla)
Cranial Nerve ExamSystematic assessment of brainstem function
via reflexesCranial Nerve Exam
Pupillary light response (CN 2-3)Occulocephalic/calorics (CN 3,4,6,8)Corneal reflex (CN 5,7)Gag refelx (CN 9,10)
.Pupillary Light ResponsesAfferent Limb: Optic NerveEfferent Limb: Parasympathetics via
occulomotorMidbrain integrity/ tectumUncal Herniation (3rd nerve dysfunction)Pupillary resistance to insult
Pupillary Light ResponsesBe aware of drug effects
Systemic and LocalState size, before and after light stimulationSpecify right and left
Pupils: Localizing ValuePons-pinpoint pupils
Symp. Dysfinction plus parasymp.irritationMidbrain-Large fixed pupils unresponsive to
light, hippusHorner’s- symp.dysfunctionUnilateral dilation- parasymp. Dysfunction
usually due to 3rd nerve lesion
Ciliospinal Reflex1-2 mm pupillary dilatation evoked by
noxious cutaneous stimulationMore prominent in sleep or coma than
during wakefulnessTest integrity of symp.pathways in comatose
patientsNot particularly useful in evaluating
brainstem function
Corneal ReflexAfferent: Trigeminal NerveEfferent: Third Nerve (Bell’s Phenomenon and Facial Nerve (Eye closure)Tests dorsal midbrain (Bell’s) and pontine
integrity (Eye closure)
Eye MovementsBefore maneuvers attempted note resting
positionMidline
Deviation suggests frontal/pontine damageConjugate
Dysconjugance suggests CN abn.Moving
Roving, dipping, bobbing
Occulocephalic/ CaloricsSame reflex elicited differentlyAfferent: Eighth nerveEfferent: 3,4,6 via MLF and PPRFOcculocephalics may also involve
proprioceptive afferents from the neck
Occulcephalic ReflexBrisk rotation of head with eyes held openWatch for contraversive movementsNext:
Flexion: eyes deviate up and eyelids open (doll’s head phenomenon)
Extension:eyes deviate downward
Caloric reflexEnsure TM integrityElevation of head to 30 degrees (so that
lateral semicircular canal is vertical)Instillation of up to 120 ml of ice water
Awake: deviation toward,nystagmus awayComatose: deviation toward
Wait 5 minutes, do other ear
CaloricsWatch for conjugance of deviationTo test vertical eye movements
Both ears, cold water-downward gazeBoth ears, warm water-upward gaze
Gag ReflexAfferent: GlossopharyngealEfferent: VagusTaken in context of other findings
Motor ExamAssess tone, presence of asterixisResponse to painful stimuli
noneabnormal flexorabnormal extensornormal localization/withdrawal
Avoid use of decerebrate/ decorticate
ReflexesBrainstemDeep tendon
Biceps, brachioradialis, tricepsPatellar, AchillesPlantar Responses
Superficial skinAbdominal, cresmasteric
Uncal herniaitonExpanding lesions in lateral middle fossaCompression of hippocampal gyrus over free
edge of tentoriumThree stages described
Early third nerveLate third nerveMidbrain-Upper pons stage
Goals in EmergencyPrimary Neurological Process?
evidence of raised ICPfocal findings, especially that implicate
brainstem structuresSecondary Processes
signs of infection, toxic/metabolic processesrelative lack of focality
Akinetic mutism ‘Locked-in’ syndrome Catatonia Conversion reactions
Akinetic MutismSilent, immobile but alert appearingUsually due to lesion in bilateral mesial
frontal lobes, bilateral thalamic lesions or lesions in peri-aqueductal grey (brainstem)
“Locked-In’ SyndromeInfarction of basis pontis (all descending
motor fibers to body and face)May spare eye-movementsOften spares eye-openingEEG is normal or shows alpha activity
CatatoniaSymptom complex associated with severe
psychiatric disease with:stupor, excitement, mutism, posturingcan also be seen in organic brain diease:
encephalitis, toxic and drug-induced psychosis
Conversion reactionsFairly rareOcculocephalics may or may not be presentThe presence of nystagmus with cold water
calorics indicates the patient is physiologically awake
EEG used to confirm normal activity

Pupillary Responses in Various Lesions
Oculocephalic and Vestibular Responses
Abnormal Breathing Patterns
Cheyne-Stokes crescendo/decrescendo pattern mixed with apnea bilateral hemisphere dysfunction
Central neurogenic hyperventilation rapid deep breathing lesion between midbrain and pons
Apneustic breathing prolonged inspiration followed by apnea pontine dysfunction
Ataxic breathing irregular pattern medullary dysfunction-close to death
Coma with hyperventilation metabolic derangement
Coma with hypoventilation drug overdose COPD
Nutritional TherapyAsses nutritional status in coma patientto help the patient to attain or maintain a
sufficient intake of energy and nutrients; therefore,
reducing the risk of adverse outcomes associated with poor nutrition
and promoting an optimal health level
Terapi supportifJalan nafas
Dilihat : Agitasi : kesan hipoksemia Gerakan nafas : dada Retraksi interkostal, dinding perut & sub kosta klavikula
Didengar suara tambahan: mendengkur, sumbatan jalan nafas
Diraba : Getaran ekspirasi Getaran di leher Fraktur mandibuler
Yang menyebabkan gangguan jalan nafasAlat yang dipakai
Perhatikan aliran darah Perfusi : periferGinjal : produksi urineNadi : ritme, rate, pengisianTekanan darah
Diusahakan : Hemodinamik stabil Kondisi tensi normal Dihindari : Hipertensi/meninggi, shock Jenis Shock : hipovolemik, kardiogenik, sepsis,
penimbunan vena perifer (polling darah)
Cairan TubuhCegah hidrasi berlebihanCairan hipotonik, hipoprotein & lama pakai
ventilator mudah terjadi hidrasiTekanan osmotik dipertahankan dengan
albuminHindari Hiponatremia
Gas darah & Keseimbangan Asam BasaAlat bantu Oksimeter untuk mengetahui
oksigenasi diusahakan Sa O2 > 95 dan Pa O2> 80 mg (dengan analisis gas darah)

AnamnesisApakah ditanyakan onset & perjalanan penyakitnya?Apakah ditanyakan faktor risiko penyakitnya &
penyakit-penyakit yang berhubungan dengan penyakit sekarang?
Apakah ditanyakan symptom & sign?Apakah ditanyakan riwayat penyakit dahulu?Apakah ditanyakan riwayat minum obat, alkohol,
