QUÉ SIGNIFICA AMNESIA EN INGLÉS

Amnesia

Amnesia

La amnesia es un déficit de memoria causado por daño cerebral, enfermedad o trauma psicológico. La amnesia también puede ser causada temporalmente por el uso de varios sedantes y fármacos hipnóticos. Esencialmente, la amnesia es pérdida de memoria. La memoria puede ser total o parcialmente perdida debido a la extensión del daño que fue causado. Hay dos tipos principales de amnesia: amnesia retrógrada y amnesia anterógrada. La amnesia retrógrada es la incapacidad de recuperar información que fue adquirida antes de una fecha determinada, generalmente la fecha de un accidente o operación. En algunos casos, la pérdida de memoria puede extenderse décadas atrás, mientras que en otros la persona puede perder sólo unos meses de memoria. La amnesia anterógrada es la incapacidad de transferir nueva información de la tienda a corto plazo a la tienda a largo plazo. Las personas con este tipo de amnesia no pueden recordar las cosas por largos períodos de tiempo. Estos dos tipos no son mutuamente excluyentes. Ambos pueden ocurrir dentro de un paciente a la vez. Estudios de caso, como el del paciente R.B., muestran que ambos tipos de amnesia pueden ocurrir simultáneamente. Los estudios de casos también muestran que la amnesia se asocia típicamente con daño al lóbulo temporal medial.

Amnesia is a deficit in memory caused by brain damage, disease, or psychological trauma. Amnesia can also be caused temporarily by the use of various sedatives and hypnotic drugs. Essentially, amnesia is loss of memory. The memory can be either wholly or partially lost due to the extent of damage that was caused. There are two main types of amnesia: retrograde amnesia and anterograde amnesia. Retrograde amnesia is the inability to retrieve information that was acquired before a particular date, usually the date of an accident or operation. In some cases the memory loss can extend back decades, while in others the person may lose only a few months of memory. Anterograde amnesia is the inability to transfer new information from the short-term store into the long-term store. People with this type of amnesia cannot remember things for long periods of time. These two types are not mutually exclusive. Both can occur within a patient at one time. Case studies, such as that of patient R.B., show that both types of amnesia can occur simultaneously. Case studies also show that amnesia is typically associated with damage to the medial temporal lobe.
