Cerebral Examination
A Cerebral Examination is a clinical assessment used to evaluate the functioning of the brain and nervous system. It typically includes tests for cognitive abilities, motor skills, sensory responses, and coordination. Healthcare professionals may observe a patient's behavior, speech, and ability to follow instructions to gather information about their neurological health.
During the examination, tools such as a reflex hammer may be used to check reflexes, while visual and auditory tests assess sensory functions. The results help in diagnosing conditions like stroke, dementia, or other neurological disorders, guiding further treatment and management strategies.
