Children with high muscle tone will benefit greatly from physical and occupational therapy to stretch affected muscles and strengthen opposing muscles which then improves overall functioning. Compensation strategies to work with an affected limb can also be taught as the child ages.
Ischemia, the noun for ischemic, means a low oxygen state due to inadequate blood flow. Bowel refers to the small and large intestine. Ischemic bowel disease results from inadequate flow of oxygenated blood to the intestines. The extent of ischemic bowel disease can range from mild to severe based on the amount of damage from lack of oxygenated blood. This is a potentially serious condition and requires care from your doctor.
Ischemia is the condition or state in which a tissue such as brain is subjected to hypoxia or low oxygen because of an obstruction of the arterial blood supply or inadequate blood flow. Brain ischemia can be broadly divided into two main classifications, global ischemia and focal ischemia. Global ischemia is the condition or state in which blood flow to the entire brain is transiently blocked, which results in delayed, selective neuronal death.
