Anterior-Inferiror 13.Gently move the speculum to reveal as much of the malleus as possible.Look for any perforations of the tympanic membrane. 14.The central part of the pars tensa is tented inwards at the level of the tip of malleus and is called the umbo.

To Perform caloric (vestibulo-ocular reflex) testing in the unconsciousness patient- Inspect the ..... canal to ensure the tympanic membrane is intact and remove any impacted cerumen (ear wax)? Next, make sure that the Pt is in ..... position with the head elevated to 30°- This ensures that the horizontal semicircular canal is in the ..... plane and that the maximal response can be elicited- . With the canal in this orientation, significant convection currents arise in the ..... due to warming or cooling? Next, Irrigate the ....... meatus with 20-100mL warm water over a period of about 30s using a large syringe with catheter attached?

I will be asking you to tell me when you stop hearing the sound of the tuning fork each time, Second- .Set the 512Hz tuning fork vibrating and, holding it by the stem, place it behind the patient's ear, making firm contact with the bony .... process?- Then Ask the patient 'please tell me when you stop hearing the sound'. This process tests .... conduction with the vibration propagating directly to the cochlea and bypassing the outer and middle ear?- Note the time it takes for the patient to stop hearing the sound. Time noted = ..... conduction? Next, When the patient has indicated that they no longer hear the sound, and without stopping the tuning fork from vibrating, bring it next to the ......?- This tests .... conduction and involves the outer, middle and inner ear? Next, Ask the patient 'do you hear the sound again?' Normally the patient will hear the sound again due to middle ear amplification, next Ask the patient 'please tell me when you stop hearing the sound' ?Note the time it takes for the patient to stop hearing the sound, Time noted + .... conduction = ..... conduction? Finally, repeat for the opposite ear.

In a LMN lesion the entire ..... (ips/cont) ..... of the face tends to be affected?

Ipsilateral Half

An .... (LMN or UMN) lesion will result in difficulty raising the shoulder ipsilaterally and turning the head contralaterally.

LMN There is considerable debate as to whether the UMN innervation of spinal accessory nucleus is bilateral, primarily contralateral or primarily ipsilateral. It seems currently accepted that the pool of motor neurons in the nucleus which innervates SCM receives bilateral hemispheric innervation (with maximal input from the ipsilateral hemisphere), whilst the pool which innervates trapezius receives only contralateral innervation. It follows then that an UMN lesion on the right will affect trapezius on the left, with SCM on the left only mildly affected, if at all.

What is the Innervation of the Muscles of Mastication?

Mandibular branch of CN V ie CN V3

What are the Steps involved in Assessing the Muscles of Mastication?- 1- Observe the skin over the ..... muscles. Concavity or asymmetry suggests atrophy and may therefore indicate an ....

Masseter LMN Masseter Teeth Note that the temporalis muscles are also innervated by CN V. They may be tested by applying the procedure outlined in steps 1-4

No Closure UMN Trigeminal

Both the .... reflex and .... testing (vestibule-ocular reflex) are primarily useful in comatose patients and test the vestibular apparatus and vestibular division of CN VIII? Both procedures are expected to stimulate vestibulo-ocular reflexive movements of the eyes, the underlying circuitry of which relies on intact functioning of parts of the medulla, pons and midbrain- therefore, the tests can be used to assess .... function in the comatose patient? If the expected conjugate horizontal eye movements are observed, the indication is that the lesion producing coma is ..... the brainstem? Deficits in oculocephalic/vestibulo-ocular eye movements suggest a brainstem lesion that could be the cause of .....?

Oculocephalic Caloric (vestibule-ocular reflex) Brainstem Above Coma However, it is important to note that these deficits may be unrelated to the cause of coma - for example, a Pt may have pre-existing vestibular disease, or may have taken ototoxic drugs or vestibulo suppressant drugs, such as barbiturates.

(through any hairs to ensure a clear view through the ear canal), 6- 6- In the Ear canal Note any discharge, foreign bodies, redness of the skin or swelling (cerumen may obscure the view). The skin of the canal is often thickened, red and itchy in otitis externa.?

Otoscope Tragus Canal Thumb and Fingers Ear canal Down and Forward - through any hairs to ensure a clear view through the ear canal). The sides of the ear canal can be quite sensitive, necessitating efforts to minimize pressure via the otoscope

A pen torch may be shone into the mouth to aid visualization of the palatal arches- Next, touch the .... on one side and then the other with a tongue depressor?-Symmetrical elevation of the palate should be noted? The afferent arm of the gag reflex is primarily CN .... and the efferent arm is CN ....?

To test the Buccinator muscle ask the Pt to .... out their ....?

Puff Cheeks Apply pressure to the cheeks with the fingers. Inspect for any leakage of air (note that air may leak due to weakness in either buccinator or orbicularis oris

To test the Orbicularis oris muscle ask the patient to .... the lips, .... and .....?- there should be symmetrical ..... of the lips?

Purse Whistle Smile Retraction

In Examination of the Eardrum/Tympanic membrane the shape of the Eardrum is a ..... tent? We should look for a .... reflex? For Ear orientation: 4- 6 o'clock position in the .... ear and for the .... ear between 6-8 o'clock

Round Light Right Left Note the color and contour. The cone of light will help aid in landmarking. A red bulging drum can indicate purulent otitis media. - The pars tensa forms most of the tympanic membrane. Its periphery is thickened to form a fibrocartilaginous ring called the annulus tympanicus

The Spinal Component of CN XI supplies ...... and .... muscles?

SCM (Sternocleidomastoid) Trapezius 1- Explain procedure to the patient. (e.g. I am going to assess the strength of your muscles by having you do certain movements with your shoulders and neck. I will also be applying gentle pressure to resist these movements). 2- Obtain consent (Are you ok with this?) 3- Ask patient to expose the area to be tested (e.g. would it be ok for you to take off your top for me to examine you?)

In the testing of the function of the Trapezius Instruct the patient as follows: shrug your ..... and try to stop me from pushing them down, then With patient's ..... shrugged , observe for any asymmetry? Place hands on both shrugged ..... and apply pressure downwards as patient attempts to keep them shrugged? Compare both sides for deficits.

To perform Oculocephalic reflex testing:-the Pt should be in ..... position, The Examiner, standing behind the head of the Pt, holds the Pt's eyes open and briskly rotates the head to one side- Conjugate horizontal eye movements in the direction ..... to the head turn are expected?- . The vestibulo-ocular reflex circuitry drives this movement of the eyes. Within several seconds, the eyes return to the resting position. 3. Note that this maneuver should not be attempted in cases of .... trauma?

Supine Opposite e.g. head rotated right, eyes move left Cervical

In the Examination of the Palate- the palate should elevate ......, the Uvula should usually remain on the ..... and the Pharynx should constrict ..... like curtains closing?

Tug Auricle Tragus Press firmly behind the ear. Tenderness behind the ear may be present in otitis media that has spread to the mastoid.

The .... (UMN or LMN) innervation of the hypoglossal nucleus is mostly contralateral, as shown above- Therefore, following a .... lesion, the protruded tongue may deviate contralaterally?
