Abstract

Studies suggest that neurologic declination has a negative impact on a person's wellness and quality of life. The neurologic system is the control center in the body where signals are sent and received through the brian, spinal cord, and nerves. These signals consist of both voluntary and involuntary functions throughout the central and peripheral nervous system. This poster seeks to conduct a review of recent, peer reviewed articles relating to neurologic declination and how to prevent or prolong these declines of mental acuity, memory, and more. Methods: A keyword search will be done using EKU Libraries EBSCOHost search engine and Google Scholar. Results: The results will help to show the evidence for how to best prevent injury to and optimize the neurologic system. Discussion: By highlighting evidence related to cognitive function and well-being, this poster can be used to help inform evidence-based practice for protecting the neurological system.
