    DISEASES AFFECTING THE CNS
    a. Stroke (Cere
o Vascular Accident)
    Definition
    Another name for a CVA is a stroke. The sudden loss of some
ain cells from a lack of oxygen when an artery to the
ain is blocked or ruptured, impairing blood flow to the
ain.
    Briefly outline the Pathophysiology
    Insufficient blood supply causes an ischemic stroke to
ain tissue owing to constricted or blocked arteries. Ischaemic strokes are thrombotic or embolic. Atherosclerosis na
ows blood arteries by forming fatty plaques. As plaques develop, blood vessels constrict, and blood flow decreases.
    List four signs
    Sudden numbness of the arm or leg, confusion, loss of balance, dizziness and headache.
    Nurses are required to provide a head-up position for a client with stroke. Briefly describe the impact of this nursing intervention
    So that the patient won't fall into hypoxia.
    b. Epilepsy
    
    Definition
    The neurological condition epilepsy is characterised by abe
ant
ain activity that results in seizures or episodes of strange behaviour, feelings, and even loss of consciousness.
    Briefly outline the pathophysiology
    Epilepsy is characterised by an imbalance in the
ain's electrical cycles. In people with seizures, electrical energy bursts temporarily affect their consciousness, movements, or sensations.
    List four signs
    Stiffness of muscles, Uncontrollable movement of arms and legs, staring spell, and Nausea
    Nurses should provide padded side rails for patients with seizures. Briefly describe the impact of this nursing intervention.
    Reduce harm when recu
ent or generalised seizures occur in bed.
    DISEASES AFFECTING THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM
    c. Angina pectoris
    
    Definition
    Insufficient blood to the heart produces angina. Coronary artery disease causes angina.
    Briefly outlines the pathophysiology
    Angina develops because the heart's oxygen consumption surpasses what is given to the cardiac muscle.
    List four specific signs
    Heaviness, Chest pain, tightness, and Nausea.
    Impact of oxygen therapy in patients with angina
    Oxygen treatment is frequently started at the outset of chest discomfort to enhance myocardial oxygen and lessen pain.
    d. Raynaud’s phenomenon
    
    Definition
    The issue of Raynaud's phenomenon results in less blood flowing to the fingertips. In rare instances, it also results in decreased blood supply to the nose, toes, nipples, knees and ears.
    Briefly outline the pathophysiology
    Blood vessel spasms are to blame for this condition. Intense cold, mental strain, or strong emotions might trigger these spasms.
    List four signs
    Numbness, Prickly feeling, cold fingers and toes and discolouration of the skin.
    Impact of calcium channel blockers in patients with Raynaud’s phenomenon
    They block calcium from entering heart and artery cells. Calcium tightens the heart and arteries. Calcium channel blockers relax blood arteries by inhibiting calcium.
    DISEASES AFFECTING THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
    e. Asthma
    
    Definition
    In the lungs, the airways are affected by the chronic, long-term disease known as asthma.
    Briefly outline the pathophysiology
    Inflammation and muscular stiffness su
ounding the tiny airways in the lungs cause the airways to constrict.
    List four specific signs
    Chest tightness, Wheezing, Coughing and Shortness of
eath.
    Impact of inhaled corticosteroids in patients with asthma
    Inflammation in the airways, which is linked to asthma and its concomitant alterations in the airway vasculature, may be reduced with corticosteroids.
    f. Pneumonia
    
    Definition
    When bacteria, viruses, or fungus enter the lungs, the result is pneumonia. Air sacs in the lungs become inflamed due to the infection.
    Briefly outline the pathophysiology
    
When fluid or pus accumulates in the alveoli, it restricts airflow.
    List four signs
    Dry cough, Shortness of
eath, mild fever and chest pain
    Nurses should encourage hydration unless contraindicated. Briefly describe the impact of...
