Those darn cranial nerves!!!

Hopefully these pictures help you in preparation for your Cranial Nerve Assessment with your patient!

TWELVE cranial nerves!

^ this picture really helped me in the actual assessment, gave me the perfect way(s) to test each nerve!



^ first column is the list of 12 cranial nerves, second column is a mnemonic to memorize the 12 and the third column defines whether or not the corresponding nerve in the row is Sensory (S), Motor (M), or Both (B).

^ nerve number, name, composition and functions

^creepy picture but actually helped me in reference of where to assess each.
