Which of the following statements about cerebral spinal fluid is TRUE? Question 46 options: CSF is a refined filtrate of blood plasma CSF in the subdural space supports the brain and spinal cord CSF flushes waste products out of the superior sagittal sinus Circulates through ventricles, sphenoid sinuses, and the subarachnoid space
What is the primary difference between spinal and epidural anesthesia? The primary difference between spinal and epidural anesthesia is the site of a ministration of the anesthetic agent. The position of the patient and the skin injection site are similar. With spinal anesthesia, the medication injected directly into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the subarachnoid space between the meningeal layers of the spinal cord. With epidural anesthesia, the medication is injected into the tissues directly above the dura mater, where are the agent is then absorbed into the CSF.

Your patient has suffered a CVA (cerebral vascular accident) also known as a stroke. Damage to the left hemisphere was the primary effect. Considering the lobes of the brain and lateralization, answer the following questions: 1. Is there a difference between the areas and/or lobes of the cerebrum considering function? 2. Would speech be affected with damage to the left hemisphere? Why or why not. Be sure to detail your answer. 3. Describe the arterial supply of the cerebrum. Which blood vessel might be the culprit in the damage to the left hemisphere ?
Please explain what cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) is, how it is made (structures involved); and discuss its complete circulation. EXPLANATION ADDRESSING THE QUESTION ABOVE Cerebral spinal fluid is a fluid that cushions the central nervous system and provides buoyancy to and helps nourish the brain. It circulates around the surface of the brain, interior ventricles, and surface of the spinal cord and central canal of the spinal cord. CSF is created by the ependymal cells in the choroid plexus and ventricles of the brain. CSF is made up mostly of water and also includes ions, nutrients like vitamin c and protein, and can pick up waste as it circulates. CSF circulation starts in the lateral ventricle where the choroid plexus and lateral ventricle creates or secretes the CSF. The CSF then flows through the ventricular foramen into the third ventricle. At the third ventricle, the CSF then flows through the cerebral aqueduct into the fourth ventricle. Then, the CSF exits the fourth…
