ASSESSMENT OF
NEUROBEHAVIOUR
SYSTEMS
Definition of Nerve Physical
Examination
The human body will be in a healthy
condition if it is able to respond appropriately to
environmental changes in a coordinated manner. The
body needs good coordination. One of the
communication systems in the body is the nervous
system. The assessment of the nervous system is one
aspect that is very important to be carried out in order
to determine the right nursing diagnosis and take
appropriate treatment actions.
The neurological examination consists of two
important stages, namely an assessment in the form
of an interview related to the client's medical history
related to the nervous system such as a history of
hypertension, stroke, inflammation of the brain, or
lining of the brain, the use of drugs and alcohol, and
the use of drugs that are taken regularly.
Purpose of the Physical Examination of
Nerves
aims to evaluate the client's physical
condition in general and also assess whether
there are indications of other diseases besides
neurological disorders. In carrying out a
physical examination of the nervous system a
nurse requires knowledge of the anatomy,
physiology, and pathophysiology of the
nervous system.
Preparation of Neural Physical Examination
E q u i p m e n t
tools preparation:
Hammer reflex
Garputala
Cotton and stick
Penlight or small flashlight
Opthalmoscope
Sterile needle
Spatel tongue
2 tubes filled with warm and cold water
Touchable objects such as safety pins or change
Strong-scented ingredients such as coffee, vanilla or perfume
Anything that tastes salty, sweet or sour, such as salt, sugar, or vinegar
Check clothes
Gloves
For the examiner
Wash hands before and after the procedure,
adjust the sequence of examinations to the
general condition of the client, begin
physical examination from the initial
contact with the client and use general
precaution, the method used by cepalo
cadral or distal to proximal
Nerve Physical Examination Procedure
Set the client's position, ask the client to sit
on the side of the bed. Observe the client's
dress, posture, facial expression and
speech, intonation, loud and soft, choice of
words and ease of responding to questions.
Assess the client's ability to think
abstractly
Cranial Nerves
Function of cranial nerves I (N Olvaktorius)
Function of cranial nerves II (N. Optic)
F u n c t i o n o f c r a n i a l n e r v e s I I I , I V, V I
(Oculomotor, Trochlear and Abdusen)
Function of the V cranial nerves (N.
Trigeminus)
Function of the VII cranial nerves (N. Facial)
Motor Functions
Assess gait and balance by observing gait, ease of
walking, and coordination of hand and leg
movements.
Sensory Function
This examination aims to evaluate the client's
response to several stimuli. The examination should
always ask the client the type of stimulus. The
examination is carried out by giving a random
stimulus to the client's body part and can be in the
form of a light touch such as cotton

Stroke Prognosis
1. Level of consciousness: conscious 16% died, 39%
somnolence died, stupor 71% died, and if coma 100% died.
2. Age: at age 70 or older, the mortality rates increase
sharp.
3. Gender: more men (16%) died than female (39%). 50
Neurobehavior System
4. Blood pressure: high blood pressure has a poor
prognosis.
5. Other: quick and precise help.
Stroke Management
Complications
complications that occur in stroke patients
namely as follows.
a. Cerebral hypoxia is minimized by providing
oxygenation.
b. Decreased cerebral blood.
c. Cerebral embolism.(Scharfstein & Gaurf, 2013)
