neuroparalysis
Neuroparalysis refers to loss of motor function resulting from impairment of the nervous system. It encompasses paralysis caused by disease or injury affecting the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, or the neuromuscular junction. Depending on the site of disruption, neuroparalysis may present as flaccid or spastic weakness, with limited or absent voluntary movement and varying degrees of muscle tone. Sensory changes may accompany motor loss, and autonomic symptoms can occur in some conditions.
Causes include central nervous system events such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, tumors,
Diagnosis relies on clinical assessment supplemented by imaging (MRI, CT), electrophysiology (nerve conduction studies, EMG), and
Management targets the underlying cause and functional rehabilitation. Acute care may require stabilization, airway protection, and
Prognosis is variable and depends on etiology, extent of neural involvement, and promptness of treatment. Some
