TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Mental Status: The Components of Thinking Are Not Easily Isolated A1 - Brust, John C. M. Y1 - 1 N1 - T2 - Practice of Neural Science: A Case-Based Approach AB - The parts of the mental status examination are listed in Table 2–1; the order in which they are most appropriately performed varies from patient to patient. Language function cannot be properly assessed in someone who is stuporous, and memory cannot be assessed in someone who is severely aphasic. How a mental status examination is conducted thus depends on what is abnormal. SN - PB - CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/04/18 UR - neurology.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1180668907 ER -
