Exploring the Interconnected Mind and Brain: Neuroscientific Advancements and Clinical Significance
Discover the evolving understanding of the mind-brain connection, supported by molecular biology findings. Explore functional areas of the brain, neurotransmitter pathways, and the clinical impact on disorders like depression and Alzheimer's. Delve into emerging concepts in psychobiology, diagnostic procedures like neuroimaging, and the role of neuro-psychiatric nursing care in improving functional abilities for patients.

Presentation Transcript
THINKING ABOUT MIND AND BRAIN Mind APA (2000) perpetuates the idea that mental and physical disorders are different and somehow not related. 21stcentury increasing evidence from the field of molecular biology shows that Mental state have their representation in brain neuronal anatomy and functioning. Neuro scientific discovery and developments continue to advance at a remarkable pace and continue to the evolving understanding of brain function. Brain activity the word Mental in patients title
Neurotransmitter- Dopamine pathway
Neurotransmitter- Serotonin pathway
Clinical significance of neurotransmitters Depression Anxiety Schizophrenia Parkinsonism Alzheimer s disease
INTERRELATED SYSTEMS Psychoneuroimmunology Neuroendocrinology Chronobiology
EMERGING CONCEPTS IN PSYCHOBIOLOGY Genetic research Stem cell technology
DIAGNOSTIC AND EVALUATION PROCEDURES NEUROIMAGING Ultra Sonography Computed Tomography Magnetic Resonance Imaging Positron Emission Tomography and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography I) II)NEURO PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT
RESEARCH Karanau (2002) did a study on Neuro psychiatry: a useful adjunct to comprehensive neuro science nursing care. They found that nursing interventions are developed to improve functional ability and promote independence. If a neuro psychiatric nurse is not available________ skill can be employed by neuro science nurses and implemented on neurological and neuro surgical units.
ROLE OF NURSE Neuro biology is a part of the standards of practice for psychiatric/ mental health nurses Neuro plastic applications are also leading to new approaches for treating disorders Effective patient and family teaching is an important function of the role of psychiatric mental health nurse as researchers regarding structure and functions of CNS Apply biological principles in all aspects of nursing care and ensure comprehensive and quality mental health
TAKE HOME MESSAGE Current concepts with dynamic development will continue to stimulate and positively challenge the truly professional nurse
