Why do individuals who suffer from brainstem injuries have difficulty with their autonomic functions?
scoundrel [369]

Answer: The brainstem controls autonomic functions through cranial nerves arising from it, along with the medulla oblongata, therefore an injury to the area can cause loss of these functions.

Explanation:

The brainstem comprises of the midbrain, and the pons and medulla of the hindbrain. It is in direct continuation with the spinal cord. Ten cranial nerves arise from this part, and a number of tracts pass through this region. The medulla of the brainstem are particularly involved in maintaining heart rate, breathing and blood pressure. In case of a brainstem injury, the cranial nerves responsible for autonomic functions could get damaged leading to dysfunction and/or the areas of medulla consisting of centres controlling heart rate, blood pressure or other autonomic functions, if damaged could cause difficulties.
