- BC fibres
2Using the diagram, match the symptoms to their fibre type:
[blank_start]Large Motor Fibre[blank_end] - Weakness, unsteadiness and muscle wasting
[blank_start]Large Sensory Fibre[blank_end] - Numbness, paraesthesia and unsteadiness
[blank_start]Small Sensory Fibre[blank_end] - Pain and Dyesthesia
[blank_start]Autonomic Fibre[blank_end] - Dizziness, Impotence, Nausea & Vomiting
- ALarge Motor Fibre
- BLarge Sensory Fibre
- CSmall Sensory Fibre
- DAutonomic Fibre
3[blank_start]Athetosis[blank_end]: Writhing movements, usually of the fingers, due to abnormal muscle contraction
[blank_start]Pseudoathetosis[blank_end]: Writhing movements, usually of the fingers, due to a failure of the neural proprioceptive pathways to the brain- AChorea
- BAthetosis
- CPseudoathetosis
- DPseudochorea
4[blank_start]High stepping[blank_end] gait is a condition whereby there is a loss of dorsiflexion when walking resulting in a foot drop and the patient having to lift their foot higher when taking a step to avoid dragging it along the floor.
- AHigh stepping
5High stepping gait can occur due to damage to which nerve?
- ASuperficial Fibular Nerve
- BDeep Fibular Nerve
- CSural Nerve
- DTibial Nerve
6The graphs in the diagram show different responses to Nerve Conduction Studies.

B: [blank_start]Axonal Loss[blank_end]
C: [blank_start]Demyelination[blank_end]
- ANormal Nerve Conduction
- BAxonal Loss
- CDemyelination
7Guillain Barre Syndrome is an example of a [blank_start]demyelinating[blank_end] neuropathy
- Ademyelinating

8Guillain Barre Syndrome is an acute autoimmune condition whereby autoantibodies attack the [blank_start]myelin[blank_end] of the [blank_start]peripheral[blank_end] nerves
- Aperipheral
- Bcentral
- Cmyelin
- Dsoma
- Eaxons
- Fdendrites
9Guillain Barre patients progressively develop paraplegia, meaning that they have weakness/paralysis [blank_start]from the waist down[blank_end]
