ASMR 🩺 Complete & Detailed Neurological Assessment | Mental Status Test, Cranial Nerve Exam, & More!

Today's video was researched using a different resource than normal: a 1997 edition of the Merck Manual of Medical Information. I followed the procedure outlined for a neurological assessment, and as such, the way this is conducted is not realistic for today's exams - I'm going off of 24 year old info, haha!

This video includes a mental status exam, cranial nerve exam, motor & sensory nerve exam, an autonomic nervous system test & checks on blood flow to your brain at the end :) it's jam-packed with different tests to help you chill out & sleep :)

I want y'all to have a safe environment here regardless of where you come from, who you love, what you look like, you name it. I don't tolerate discrimination or hatred based on attributes you can't change like where you were born, what color you are, if you have a disability, or who you love– above all, be kind to one another. We're all just people, just trying to do our thing.

❥I upload on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays every week, and usually a new medical video every Sunday! (there may be fluctuations due to chronic illness)

❥ Frequently Asked Questions:
- “Why do you ask for a preferred name & address?” While I'm a cisgender woman, I'm very aware of my audience having members that don't use their 'legal' names (I'm one of them) and use specific pronouns, or are questioning their names and given pronouns. It's just common courtesy to make everyone more comfortable here. Even if it doesn't apply to you, it may apply to others and makes the world of difference.
- “Why do you ask for consent to touch (even if it's a given)?” Coooommon courtesy; big thing with me. I hate being touched by anyone I don't know, but being asked even if I know I'm going to have to anyway is much more comfortable than someone putting their paws on me without warning. Common courtesy.
- “Is your name really Calliope? How do you say it?” Yup. It's pronounced Ka-Lie-Oh-Pee, not Kal-Ee-Ope.
