Abstract

Traumatic brain injury might be cause
varying degree of amnesia, changes in mental status and intracranial lesions
can be formed both in humans and animals. In the present study, the probable amnesia and treatment interventions due to head trauma with
neurological findings were evaluated in a 20-day Saanen goat kid. In conclusion, it has been suggested that trauma scales and tests which used in human medicine and
animal models can help to determine the prognosis by routine application in
patients with traumatic history.

Bir Oğlakta Kafa Travmasına Bağlı Gelişen Olası Amnezi Olgusu

Abstract

Travmatik
beyin hasarına bağlı olarak insanlarda ve hayvanlarda değişen derecelerde
bilinç kaybı ve azalması, zihinsel durum değişiklikleri ve intrakraniyal
lezyonlar şekillenebilmektedir. Sunulan çalışmada, klinik muayenesinde
nörolojik bulgular saptanan 20 günlük Saanen
ırkı bir oğlakta kafa travmasına bağlı olarak gelişen olası amnezi olgusu ve
sağaltım girişimlerinin değerlendirilmesi yapıldı. Sonuç olarak travma geçmişi
olan hastalarda sağaltım girişimi açısından beşerî hekimlikte ve hayvan
modellerinde kullanılan travma skala ve testlerin rutin uygulamaya sokularak
prognozun belirlenmesinde yardımcı olabileceği düşünüldü.
