Distraction of consciousness
Distraction of consciousness - psychopathological syndromes, disorders of objective consciousness and self-consciousness, which are characterized by:
- Difficult perception of the environment;
- Disturbed orientation in place and time;
- Inability to coherent thinking;
- Complete or partial loss from the memory of the period of darkened consciousness.
Depending on the structure of obscuration of consciousness and the nature of experiences, different clinical variants are distinguished. When stunned, external stimuli are difficult to perceive. Patients poorly understand the situation, unable to make an elementary conclusion, are inactive, inhibited. The heavier degrees are sopor and coma (complete disabling of consciousness). Delirium is the obscuration of consciousness with visual hallucinations, fear, acute sensual delirium, motor excitement. Delirium is observed with infectious psychoses, intoxications, alcoholism. With the oniroid (dream) obscuration of consciousness, scene-like visual-visual fantasy experiences arise, the concept of one's personality changes. As a rule, the onyroid obscuration of consciousness is accompanied by a catatonic stupor or excitement. Most often observed in schizophrenia, less often - with epilepsy and organic diseases of the brain. Dis amentation is characterized by incoherence (incoherence) of thinking, stereotyped excitation within the bed, inconsistent incoherent speech, changeable mood. It is observed in severe somatic diseases, encephalitis, intoxications. Twilight confusion of consciousness arises suddenly, often accompanied by hallucinatory-delusional experiences and violent affect of anguish, anger, fear, sometimes violent excitement. Behavior can be externally ordered and adequate. Most often occurs in epilepsy, hysteria.
