Decorticate and decerebrate posturing are abnormal posturing responses typically to noxious stimuli. They involve stereotypical movements of the trunk and extremities. To avoid the high morbidity and mortality associated with these conditions, it must be promptly diagnosed and treated. #trolllmbbs #trendingreels #icu #medicos #mbbs #medicalmemes | Trolll MBBS
