Cranial nerves completely explained (for Speech Pathology)

(reupload with better audio quality)
Explanation of pyramidal & extrapyramidal tracts, upper motor neurones vs lower motor neurones, and why spasticity is less common with cranial nerves. Aimed at speech pathologists but may be useful for others.

I’m a student Speech&Language Therapist, and I’ve just recently come across your videos. They Are Absolute Gold, thank you so much!

[@deelite4955]

This is GENIUS! Thank you SO much. I have no idea why understanding UMN and LMN was so difficult to understand ... before THIS video!

[@irinaphoenix2169]

Such a good explanation! So helpful in differentiating the dysarthrias!

⚠Note at 11:21 - When I say, "Same with the tongue," I specifically mean, "The same contralateral weakness occurs for the tongue when Cranial Nerve 12 is affected." In case anyone thinks I mean that facial nerve (CN VII) impairment affects tongue protrusion.

you have nothing to do with the cranial nerves. This is what neurologists do..

[@johnepierce]

How ridiculous. That's like saying a physio has nothing to do with a joint replacement because that's what orthopedists do. We work WITH neurologists in a team - I did for many years. Neurologists have no issues with SPs assessing and reporting on cranial nerves related to speech and swallowing - in fact they can be annoyed if you don't know them. Thorough knowledge is required for speech pathologists to do their job.

@@johnepierce Physio has nothing to do with joint replacement. That's right, traumatologists and orthopedists do this. Neurologists evaluate the cranial nerves and the rest of the nervous system. Do you want in-depth knowledge?)) Graduate from medical school and become a neurologist. And so, to do your pedagogy, cranial nerves are not needed.))for you it is nothing more than buzzwords.
