Why there is a need of assessing.?

SENSORIUMThe sensorium is that place where you are
aware that you are aware.FUNCTIONRegisters current internal and external
contingenciesRelates current internal and external stimuli
to our memories and to our future hopes and desires

Invests the streams of afferent stimuli with emotion,determines their significance and assigns priority whether to attend or neglect
Proposes various actions and their consequences
Directs the motor system in the actual behaviors that achieve personal survival and satisfaction
It allows us to experience life as a conscious process with a past present and future to respond appropriately

PERCEPTIONPERCEPTUAL DISTORTIONS:-IllusionsHallucinationsDelusionsAgnosiaApraxia
![Page 10: Assessment of higher motor functions](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022102706/557d3fead8b42a447f8b522d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
AGNOSIAIt is the inability to understand the
meaning, import, or symbolic sihgnificance of ordinary sensory stimuli even though the sensory pathways and sensorium are relatively intact
![Page 11: Assessment of higher motor functions](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022102706/557d3fead8b42a447f8b522d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Types of Agnosia
Agraphognosia(agraphesthesia)ProsopagnosiaBody scheme/body image disordersTopagnosiaAutotopagnosiaRight left disorientationLeft side hemispatial inattentionAnosognosia Inattention to double simultaneous cutaneous stimuliFinger ground discriminationForm discriminationSpatial relationsTopographic disorientationDepth and distance perceptionVertical disorientation

APRAXIAIt means the inability to perform a
voluntary act even though the motor system sensory system and mental status are relatively intact
![Page 13: Assessment of higher motor functions](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022102706/557d3fead8b42a447f8b522d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Types of ApraxiaFace tongue apraxiaArm (ideomotor) apraxiaIdeational apraxiaConstructional apraxiaDressing apraxiaGait apraxiaGlobal apraxia in children

SPEECH DISORDERSAPHASIA:- it means the ability to
understand or express words as symbols for communication,even though the primary sensorimotor pathways to receive and express language and the mental status are relatively intact
