Problem: How to respond to Erica about her post Type of Nursing Assessment Based on the JoVE video, the best assessment for Alexia is a focused assessment of the neurological system. The video shows how to check a child's brain and nervous system by looking at their mental status, cranial nerves, strength, coordination, and how they behave after a seizure. This type of assessment fits Alexia's situation because she recently had a seizure and already has cerebral palsy. Neurological Assessment & Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC) Alexia is awake and responds slowly but correctly. Pupils are equal and reactive. Cranial nerves II-XII are normal. She has mild stiffness in both legs from cerebral palsy. Strength is 4/5 in all extremities. No tremors or eye twitching. She reports headaches a few times a week and is tired after the seizure, which Jarvis (2024) notes is common after seizure activity. Hypothetically, her mother marked "Sometimes" for items like aches, low energy, daydreaming, and trouble sleeping. She marked "Often" for irritability and trouble concentrating. Her PSC score is 26, which is close to the cutoff of 28. This means she may need more follow-up for emotional or behavioral issues. Cues Requiring Further Investigation Important cues.
