Difference between Altered level of consciousness and Midbrain

Altered level of consciousness vs. Midbrain

An altered level of consciousness is any measure of arousal other than normal. The midbrain or mesencephalon (from Greek mesos 'middle', and enkephalos 'brain') is a portion of the central nervous system associated with vision, hearing, motor control, sleep/wake, arousal (alertness), and temperature regulation.

Similarities between Altered level of consciousness and Midbrain

Altered level of consciousness and Midbrain have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Alertness, Brainstem, Central nervous system, Reticular formation, Thalamus.

Alertness

Alertness is the state of active attention by high sensory awareness such as being watchful and prompt to meet danger or emergency, or being quick to perceive and act.

Thalamus

The thalamus (from Greek θάλαμος, "chamber") is the large mass of gray matter in the dorsal part of the diencephalon of the brain with several functions such as relaying of sensory signals, including motor signals, to the cerebral cortex, and the regulation of consciousness, sleep, and alertness.
