MACETE: Como gravar os 12 pares de Nervos cranianos - Rogério Souza

Summary

In this educational video, the speaker shares a creative and memorable technique to help viewers easily memorize the twelve cranial nerves. Using fun and relatable associations—such as connecting the number of noses to the olfactory nerve or associating the shape of the number 6 with the abducens nerve—the speaker guides the audience through a step-by-step process. By leveraging imaginative tricks, viewers are encouraged to visualize and recall each nerve's function with ease, making the learning process more engaging and effective. The speaker wraps up with a review of all twelve nerves, ensuring the method sticks.

Takeaways

• 😀 The mnemonic method for memorizing the cranial nerves is presented as a fun, creative approach.
• 😀 The first cranial nerve is 'olfactory,' linked to the number 1, as we have 1 nose.
• 😀 The second cranial nerve is 'optic,' related to the number 2, representing our 2 eyes.
• 😀 The third cranial nerve is 'oculomotor,' associated with the number 3, which visually resembles eyeglasses.
• 😀 The fourth cranial nerve is 'trochlear,' linked to the word 'change,' as we often 'change' things in the bedroom (quarto).
• 😀 The fifth cranial nerve is 'trigeminal,' derived from the sum of 3 + 2, equaling 5.
• 😀 The sixth cranial nerve is 'abducens,' inspired by the number 6, which resembles the letter 'B'.
• 😀 The seventh cranial nerve is 'facial,' connected to the number 7, which when inverted, looks like the letter 'F.'
• 😀 The eighth cranial nerve is 'vestibulocochlear,' linked to the concept of studying infinitely for an important exam, like the vestibular exam.
• 😀 The ninth cranial nerve is 'glossopharyngeal,' tied to the number 9, which looks like the letter 'G.'
• 😀 The tenth cranial nerve, 'vagus,' does not have a memorable mnemonic but is still part of the sequence.
• 😀 The eleventh cranial nerve is 'accessory,' linked to the idea of one helping the other, symbolized by 11 (one + one).
• 😀 The twelfth cranial nerve is 'hypoglossal,' associated with the idea of being 'low' or 'under,' as 'hypo' means below.

Q & A

How does the speaker suggest memorizing the cranial nerves?

The speaker suggests using mnemonic devices based on numbers and familiar associations to make memorizing the cranial nerves easier, such as relating each nerve to something visual or conceptual like the number of eyes or the shape of a letter.

What is the first cranial nerve, and how does the speaker suggest remembering it?

The first cranial nerve is the olfactory nerve, and the speaker suggests remembering it by associating it with having only one nose.

How is the second cranial nerve, the optic nerve, remembered?

The second cranial nerve is the optic nerve, and it is remembered by associating it with having two eyes.

What is the association made for the third cranial nerve, the oculomotor nerve?

The third cranial nerve, the oculomotor nerve, is remembered by associating it with the number 3, which resembles a pair of glasses or an eyeglass frame.

How is the fourth cranial nerve, the trochlear nerve, remembered?

The fourth cranial nerve, the trochlear nerve, is remembered by associating it with the word 'quarto' (fourth in Portuguese), and thinking about what people typically do in a bedroom—'trocar' (change), which is phonetically similar to 'trochlear'.

What mnemonic helps with remembering the fifth cranial nerve, the trigeminal nerve?

The fifth cranial nerve, the trigeminal nerve, is remembered by the equation 3+2=5, symbolizing that it is the fifth cranial nerve.

What association is made for the sixth cranial nerve, the abducens nerve?

The sixth cranial nerve, the abducens nerve, is remembered by the number 6, which resembles the letter 'B', and the fact that the nerve is named 'abducens', which contains a 'B'.

How is the seventh cranial nerve, the facial nerve, remembered?

The seventh cranial nerve, the facial nerve, is remembered by the number 7, which when inverted, looks like the letter 'F'. This leads to the association with 'F' for 'facial'.

What is the mnemonic for remembering the eighth cranial nerve, the vestibulocochlear nerve?

The eighth cranial nerve, the vestibulocochlear nerve, is remembered by associating the number 8 with the symbol for infinity, which reminds the speaker of all the subjects studied for the vestibular (college entrance) exam, representing a large amount of knowledge.

How is the ninth cranial nerve, the glossopharyngeal nerve, remembered?

The ninth cranial nerve, the glossopharyngeal nerve, is remembered by associating the number 9 with the letter 'G', which looks similar, and the nerve's name starts with 'G'.
