Amnesia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search For other uses, see Amnesia (disambiguation) Amnesia Classification and external resources ICD R ICD MeSH Amnesia (from Greek ) is a condition in which memory is disturbed. The causes of amnesia are organic or functional. In simple terms it is the loss of memory. Organic causes include damage to the brain, through trauma or disease, or use of certain (generally sedative) drugs. Functional causes are psychological factors, such as defense mechanisms . Hysterical post-traumatic amnesia is an example of this. Amnesia may also be spontaneous, in the case of transient global amnesia This global type of amnesia is more common in middle-aged to elderly people, particularly males, and usually lasts less than 24 hours. Another effect of amnesia is the inability to imagine the future. A recent study published online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that amnesiacs with damaged hippocampus cannot imagine the future. This is because when a normal human being imagines the future, they use their past experiences to construct a possible scenario. For example, a person who would try to imagine what would happen at a party that would occur in the near future would use their past experience at parties to help construct the event in the future.

7. Amnesia: Health Topics: University Of Iowa Health Care amnesia refers to loss of memory and is often the result of a traumatic event. There are two basic types of amnesia anterograde and retrograde. http://www.uihealthcare.com/topics/mentalemotionalhealth/ment3141.html

Health Topics Category Index Health Topics for Mental and Emotional Health Department of Psychiatry Amnesia Amnesia refers to loss of memory and is often the result of a traumatic event. There are two basic types of amnesia: anterograde and retrograde. Retrograde amnesia is a loss of memory that occurs before the time of the event. For example, you forget something that happened before you got hit on the head. Anterograde amnesia is a loss of memory that occurs after the time of the event, such as forgetting something that happened after having surgery. Contrary to popular opinion, anterograde amnesia is probably more common. Most people with amnesia experience a loss related to specific time periods. The movie image of forgetting everything about your personal past but remembering everything to do with daily functioning is a myth. Most amnesia is due to physical causes. These include: a blow to the head stroke poisoning substance abuse vitamin deficiency malnutrition and dementia Amnesia should always be considered serious enough to call for a full evaluation by a healthcare provider. However, it is common to experience a certain amount of memory loss around a severe injury. For example, many people involved in a severe car accident may experience both types of amnesia. This does not necessarily indicate any severe or lasting damage. Many people experience a certain amount of amnesia after surgery. A specific type of amnesia is called transient global amnesia, or TGA. TGA is caused by a problem related to decreased blood flow in the brain. It may happen to someone only once or many times. Another type of amnesia is psychogenic amnesia. This is amnesia caused by a psychological trauma. People with this amnesia may forget events around a terrible incident, such as witnessing the violent death of a loved one. Unlike amnesia caused by physical factors, these memories can often be retrieved by psychotherapy or hypnosis. Sometimes the memories return on their own.

15. Johns Hopkins | Neurology & Neurosurgery :: Amnesia, Memory Disorder, Korsakoffà amnesia is a memory disorder treated by the neurologists at Johns Hopkins. http://www.hopkinsneuro.org/memory_disorders/disease.cfm/condition/Amnesia

Hopkins Medicine Home/ Memory Disorders/ Amnesia Amnesia Amnesia is a general term for a syndrome that involves substantial difficulty learning and retaining new information. Some forms of amnesia, such as transient global amnesia, are transient and completely reversible. Other treatable causes of memory loss include: medication side effects, drug and alcohol use, metabolic conditions, such as thyroid disease or vitamin deficiencies. Some forms of amnesia occur because of isolated damage to the brain, such as in Korsakoff’s syndrome. Although memory loss is often the earliest sign of a progressive dementing disorder, it is important to remember that memory loss need not be a harbinger of dementia. Therefore, it is recommended that a patient with memory change should be carefully evaluated to rule out treatable causes of the memory loss. It should not be assumed that memory loss is just a part of normal aging. Memory Disorders TEAM Dr. Marilyn Albert Dr. Paul Dash Dr. Argye Hillis Dr. Constantine Lyketsos ... Dr. Ola Selnes

Memories for events that occurred before the injury may be largely spared, but events that occurred since the injury may be lost. In practice, this means that an individual with amnesia may have good memory for childhood and for the years before the injury, but may remember little or nothing from the years since.
