Descriptor English: Amnesia, Anterograde
Descriptor Spanish: Amnesia Anterógrada
Descriptor amnesia anterógrada
Entry term(s) pérdida de la memoria anterógrada
pérdida postictal de la memoria
Scope note: Pérdida de la capacidad para formar nuevas memorias pasado un cierto momento en el tiempo. Esta afección puede tener un origen orgánico o psicógeno. La amnesia anterógrada inducida orgánicamente puede seguir a TRAUMATISMO CRANEOENCEFÁLICO, CONVULSIONES, ANOXIA, y otras afecciones que afectan de modo adverso a las estructuras neurales relacionadas con la formación de la memoria (p.ej., HIPOCAMPO, FÓRNIX CEREBRAL, CUERPOS MAMILARES y NÚCLEOS TALÁMICOS ANTERIORES). (Memory 1997; Jan-Mar;5(1-2):49-71)

Scope note: Loss of the ability to form new memories beyond a certain point in time. This condition may be organic or psychogenic in origin. Organically induced anterograde amnesia may follow CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA; SEIZURES; ANOXIA; and other conditions which adversely affect neural structures associated with memory formation (e.g., the HIPPOCAMPUS; FORNIX (BRAIN); MAMMILLARY BODIES; and ANTERIOR THALAMIC NUCLEI).
