Blindness, Deafness or Insensate Definition
Here is some information that will provide the blindness, deafness or insensate definition. Children with blindness, deafness or insensate due to a brain lesion, profound lack of oxygen at birth or other neurological trauma have the potential to improve - if they are blind, to see and learn to read; if they are deaf, to hear and learn to understand; if they are insensate, to feel and learn to interpret what they are feeling. But the treatment must be both properly directed and rigorously carried out for these children to begin to heal.
Children who present with such symptoms are usually injured in both the brain stem (medulla, pons and midbrain) and the cortex. These often-pervasive injuries prevent the child from receiving and processing sensory information properly, which in turn impairs basic seeing, hearing, feeling, smelling and tasting. And since sensory function always precedes motor function, injuries to the sensory pathways also impair basic motor function in terms of manual development, language and independent movement.
