Documentation of a Neurologic Examination You will perform a history of a neurologic problem that your instructor has provided you or one that you have experienced and perform an assessment of the neurologic system. You will document your subjective and objective findings, actual or potential risks.

Answer:

Neurological assessment for migraine is done with MRI and CT scan which give detail information about the brain and blood vessels to diagnose the tumors, strokes, bleeding in the brain, infections, and other neurological conditions. Seiure can be ruled out by an electroencephalogram (EEG).

Migraine is characterised as a neurological disease with incapacitating neurological symptoms. It is presented with severe throbbing recurring pain typically on one side of the head.It also associated with symptoms like visual disturbances, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, extreme sensitivity to sound, light, touch and smell, and tingling or numbness in the extremities or face. Migraine is more prone in women than men.

Probabale objective findings of migraine are:

• Hormonal changes (eg, those resulting from menstruation, ovulation, oral contraceptives, or hormone replacement)

• Head trauma

• Horner syndrome

• Cranial/cervical muscle tenderness

• Hypertension/hypotension

• Stress adn sleep deprivation

• Hemisensory or hemiparetic neurologic deficits (ie, complicated migraine)

• Adie-type pupil (ie, poor light reactivity, with near dissociation to light)

Women with hormonal changes during or before menstrual periods, pregnancy and menopause are at high risk of migriane. Migraine also increases the risk of strokes.
