Cushing's triad

Hi there! Cushing's triad is a way to tell if someone has something wrong with their brain.

Your brain is like the boss of your whole body. Sometimes, things can happen that make it not work the right way. One of the things that can happen is that there's too much pressure inside your brain. This can be very bad and make you very sick.

Doctors use Cushing's triad to figure out if someone has this kind of problem with their brain. It has three parts:

1. Slow heart rate: your heart beats slower than usual
2. High blood pressure: your blood is pushing too hard against your blood vessels
3. Irregular breathing: your breaths are not coming in and out in a steady way.

When someone has all three of these things happening at the same time, it can mean that they have too much pressure inside their brain. This is important to know so that the doctors can find a way to make them feel better again.

So remember, Cushing's triad is a way that doctors check to see if someone's brain is not working the way it should be, and it has three parts: slow heart rate, high blood pressure, and irregular breathing.
