Type:
Answer:
Neurapraxia   Mildest form of injury  
🗑
Neurapraxia   Conduction block usually due to myelin dysfunction  
🗑
Neurapraxia   Axonal continuity conserved  
🗑
Neurapraxia   Nerve conduction is preserved proximal and distal to the lesion  
🗑
Neurapraxia   Nerve fibers are not damaged  
🗑
Neurapraxia   Recovery will occur within 4-6 weeks  
🗑
Axonotmesis   A more severe grade of injury to a peripheral nerve  
🗑
Axonotmesis   Reversible injury to damaged fibers  
🗑
Axonotmesis   Damage occurs to teh axons with preservation of the endoneurium (neural connective tissue sheath), epineurium, Schwann cells, and supporting structures  
🗑
Axonotmesis   Distal Wallerian degeneration can occur  
🗑
Axonotmesis   The nerve can regenerate distal to the site of lesion at a rate of one millimeter per day  
🗑
Neurotmesis   The most severe grade of injury to a peripheral nerve  
🗑
Neurotmesis   Axon, myelin, connective tissue components are all damaged or transected  
🗑
Neurotmesis   Irreversable injury, no possibility of regeneration  
🗑
Neurotmesis   All motor and sensory loss distal to lesion becomes permanently impaired  
🗑
