Udat na Nyurofisiɔlɔjis? Lɛ wi ɔndastand am simpul wan!

Sɔntɛm yu nɔ yɛri bɔt spɛshal dɔktɔ we de chɛk fɔ si if yu nervɔs sistɛm, we inklud yu bren, spɛshal kɔd, ɛn di nɛtwɔk fɔ nerv dɛn we de rɔn ɔlsay na yu bɔdi, de wok fayn. Jɔs lɛk spɛshal pɔsin we de chɛk fɔ si if di waya na yu os de wok fayn, gɛt shɔt sɔmsay, ɔ if di kɔrɛnt smɔl, dis dɔktɔ de chɛk di "ilɛktrik sistɛm" na yu bɔdi bak. Tide wi de tɔk bɔt dis spɛshal pɔsin, we na Nyurophysiologist.

Fɔ tɔk am simpul wan, udat na Nyurophysiologist?

Nyurofysiɔlɔjis na spɛshal pɔsin we de stɔdi aw wi nervɔs sistɛm de wok, mɔ di ilɛktrik wok we i de du , ɛn i de du tɛst ɛn no di sik dɛn we gɛt fɔ du wit am.

Tink bɔt am, wi bɔdi na mashin we rili kɔmpleks. Di kɔntrol rum fɔ dis mashin na di nervɔs sistɛm. Dat min se di bren, di spεnal kכd, εn di nεv dεm we de kכri infכmeshכn כlsay na di bכdi. Ɔltin we yu de tink, fil, ɛn du na dis sistɛm de kɔntrol am. Frɔm di tɛm we yu es yu an to di tɛm we yu at de bit, ɔl dis na pat pan am.

So if prɔblɛm de wit dis sistɛm, ilɛksɛf na prɔblɛm wit di flɔ we di infɔmeshɔn de flɔ ɔ prɔblɛm wit ilɛktrik signal, nyurofysiɔlɔjis go ɛp fɔ fɛn am.

Nyurolɔjis ɛn Nyurofisiɔlɔjis - Wetin na di difrɛns bitwin dɛn tu tin ya?

Bɔku tɛm, dɛn tu nem ya kin kɔnfyus wit dɛnsɛf. Dɛn ɔl tu na dɔktɔ dɛn we de wok pan di nervɔs sistɛm. Bɔt smɔl difrɛns de. Lɛ wi ɔndastand dis wit ɛgzampul.

Imajin se prɔblɛm de wit di layt sistem na yu os. Yu go tɔk fɔs to wan rɛgyula ilɛktrishian. I kin luk di wan ol waya sistem na di os, si if di fiuz dɔn blo, di switch dɔn pwɛl, di bɔl dɔn bɔn, ɛn gɛt big pikchɔ. Na so Nyurolɔjis tan lɛk. Na dɔktɔ we no bɔku tin bɔt ɔltin we de na di nervɔs sistɛm, dat na di we aw i tan, aw i de wok, ɛn ɔl di sik dɛn we gɛt fɔ du wit am. Wan Nyurolɔjis kin gi yu mɛrɛsin ɛn plan yu tritmɛnt.

Naw imajin se wan prɔblɛm de we rili kɔmpleks we di ilɛktrishian nɔ ebul fɔ fɛn. Di vɔlɔt na di kɔrɛnt de go dɔŋ, i tan lɛk se smɔl lik de sɔmsay. Dɔn i kin briŋ pɔsin we de yuz spɛshal mita, we sabi bɔt kɔrɛnt flɔ. Na so Nyurophysiologist tan. I sabi aw di nervɔs sistɛm de wok , mɔ di we aw ilɛktrik signal dɛn de travul. Wetin i kin du na fɔ du difrɛn tɛst dɛn, chɛk di tin dɛn we dɛn dɔn fɛn, ɛn no ustɛm di prɔblɛm de na di we aw di nerv dɛn de wok.

Di tu men wok dɛm we nyurofysiɔlɔjis de du

Wi kin sheb nyurophysiologist dεm to tu men kategori, dipכnt pan di we aw dεn de wok.

1. Di wan dɛn we de wok na ɔpreshɔn (Surgical Neurophysiologists) .

2. Di wan dɛn we de no bɔt sik dɛn na klinik (Clinical Neurophysiologists) .

Lɛ wi luk di wok we ɛni wan pan dɛn pipul ya de du wan bay wan.

1. Di Rol we di Nyurophysiologist de du pan Ɔpreshɔn

Dis na eria we rili impɔtant. Imajin se sɔmbɔdi de du big ɔpreshɔn pan in spayna ɔ in bren. We dɛn de du di ɔpreshɔn, di dɔktɔ dɛn we de du di ɔpreshɔn nid fɔ wach fɔ si if di nerv dɛn dɔn pwɛl. If ivin smɔl mistek de, pɔsin kin paralayz, i nɔ kin yɛri igen, ɔ i kin gɛt strok.

Na da tɛm de wan nyurofysiɔlɔjis kin jɔyn di ɔspitul tim. I kin yuz spɛshal tin dɛn fɔ wach aw di pɔsin in nervɔs sistɛm de wok wit ilɛktrik ɔl di tɛm we dɛn de du di ɔpreshɔn. Dɛn kɔl dis Intraɔparetiv Nyurofisiɔlɔji Monitorin (IONM) . We wan nerve ivin afɛkt smɔl, in ilɛktrik signal dɛn kin chenj. As di dɔktɔ we de mɛn di nyurofisiɔlɔji si da chenj de so, i kin wɔn di dɔktɔ we de du di ɔpreshɔn. Dɔn di dɔktɔ we de du di ɔpreshɔn kin du di tin dɛn we i nid bifo di damej apin.

2. Nyurophysiologist we de mek klinik diagnosis

Dis na di Nyurophysiologist we wi kin si, di wan we wi dɔktɔ kin rifer wi to. Dɛn de na ɔspitul ɔ klinik. Dɛn kin du difrɛn tɛst dɛn fɔ si aw di nervɔs sistɛm de wok. Na di rizɔlt fɔ dɛn tɛst ya yu Nyurolɔg go no ustɛm yu gɛt.

Dis na sɔm pan di men tɛst dɛn we dɛn kin du:

• EMG (Electromyography): Dis tεst de luk pan di hεlth fכ yu mכsul dεm εn di nεv dεm we de kכntro dεm. If yu gɛt swɛt, swɛt, ɔ wik na yu an, dis tɛst kin ɛp fɔ no if di prɔblɛm de na di mɔsul insɛf ɔ na di nerv dɛn we de gi am. Dis impɔtant fɔ no di sik dɛm lɛk Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (pinched nerve in the wrist) ɛn Peripheral Neuropathy (damej to di nerve dɛm na di an ɛn leg bikɔs ɔf kɔndishɔn lɛk dayabitis).

• NCS (Nerve Conduction Study): Dis de sho aw lɔng i tek fɔ mek ilɛktrik signal travul along wan nerve ɛn aw fast i de travul. If wan nerve dɔn pwɛl, di spid we da signal de de travul kin go dɔŋ. Bɔku tɛm, dɛn kin du ɔl tu di EMG ɛn NCS tɛst dɛn togɛda.

• EEG (Electroencephalogram): Yu go dɔn yɛri bɔt dis wan. Dis min se dɛn fɔ tay smɔl smɔl ilɛktrɔd dɛn na di skel ɛn rayt di ilɛktrik wok we di bren de du . Dis tɛst impɔtant fɔ no bɔt sik dɛn lɛk ɛpilepshi ɛn fɔ no usay na di bren di kɔz de.

• Evoked Potential Test: Dis kin min fɔ gi sɔntin we de mek pɔsin want fɔ du sɔntin, lɛk layt to di yay ɔ sawnd to di yes, ɛn fɔ mɛzhɔ di ilɛktrik aktiviti na di bren ɛn spɛshal kɔd we i de ansa am. Dat min se i de mɛzhɔ aw kwik wetin yu de si wit yu yay de rich na di bren, ɛn aw kwik wetin yu de yɛri wit yu yes de rich na di bren.

• Slip stɔdi (Slip stɔdi / Polisomnografi):Sɔm pipul dɛn kin gɛt prɔblɛm lɛk fɔ snor, fɔ slip, ɛn fɔ snor we dɛn de slip. Fɔ no bɔt dɛn sik ya we de mek pɔsin slip, dɛn kin put di pɔsin na ɔspitul ɛn dɛn kin wach difrɛn we aw in bɔdi de wok (we in bren wev, aw i de blo, ɛn aw in at de bit) fɔ wan nɛt. Na wan Nyurophysiologist de du dis bak.

Aw fɔ bi Nyurophysiologist?

Dis na rili lɔng ɛn dediket waka. Nyurofysiɔlɔjis na dɔktɔ. So, yu fɔ inrɔl fɔs na mɛdikal skul ɛn kɔmplit wan mɛdikal digri (MD/MBBS).

Dɔn:

• Yu fɔ dɔn fɔ wan ia intanshɔp.
• Afta dat, yu nid fɔ gɛt sɔm ia postgrɛdyut trenin (Residency/MD) fɔ gɛt spɛshal no bɔt nyurolɔji.
• Afta da trenin de, yu go stɔdi aw di nervɔs sistɛm de wok dip wan ɛn gɛt trenin pan wan sɔbspɛshal wok we dɛn kɔl Nyurofisiɔlɔji.

Dis kin tek bɔku tɛm, stɔdi, ɛn gi wi layf to Jiova.

So if yu dɔktɔ rifer yu fɔ tɛst lɛk EMG ɔ EEG, naw yu no se yu go go to Nyurophysiologist. Na pɔsin we go chɛk yu nervɔs sistɛm dip wan ɛn ɛp yu fɔ no di kɔrɛkt tin fɔ yu sik. So nɔr frayd, aks da dɔktɔ de ɛni kwɛstyɔn ɔr tin wae de mɔna yu. Dɛn de de fɔ ɛp yu.
