1:1 Basic Elements of Anatomy Flashcards

1
Q

Why is anatomy/physiology important for SLP’s?

A
  • Understand normal communication processes and the anatomical structures involved.
  • Knowledge base to communicate with other professionals
  • Clinic/hospital setting
  • Diagnosis/differential diagnosis (SLP can help diagnose and set up appropriate treatment plan)

A

systems of organs and structures involved in verbal communication. (ALL OF THESE SYSTEMS AND ORGANS COMBINE TOGETHER TO HELP THE BODY FUNCTION PROPERLY AND TO COMMUNICATE EFFECTIVELY…NO SYSTEM WORKS IN ISOLATION, THEY ARE ALL INTERTWINED FOR SPEECH AND HEARING)

Anatomical Terminology (Latin and Greek Terms):

A

The basis of understanding anatomical structures and functions.

Example:
“ipsi” means “same”
“lateral” means “side”
“ipsilateral” nerve means a nerve that tracts on the same side.

divides the body into left and right portions (think: “saddle”)

28
Q

Sagittal plane:

A

plane created by a sagittal section

29
Q

Transverse section:

A

divides the body into upper and 
lower halves

30
Q

POSITION OF PARTS:

A

Describes the position of parts of the body in relation to other parts. “Body-specific” - Will mean different things for different bodies (human vs dog).

31
Q

Examples of position of parts:

A
  • Anterior
  • Ventral
  • Posterior
  • Dorsal
  • Rostral
  • Caudal
32
Q

Anterior:

A

in front of (ex: your front teeth is anterior to your tongue)

33
Q

Ventral:

A

referring to the front surface of the body (for humans, anterior and ventral are synonymous)

34
Q

Posterior:

A

toward the back; behind

35
Q

Dorsal:

A

referring to the back surface of a body (think: “Free Willy”) (for humans, posterior and dorsal are synonymous)

36
Q

Rostral:

A

toward the head (think “rooster”)

37
Q

Caudal:

A

toward the tail

38
Q

ORIENTATION WITH REFERENCE TO THE SURFACE OF THE BODY (7):

A
  • Peripheral
  • Superficial
  • Deep
  • External
  • Internal
  • Distal
  • Medial/Mesial
39
Q

Peripheral:

A

away from the center (outside or away from the center)

40
Q

Superficial:

A

confined to the surface (on the surface of our body)

41
Q

Deep:

A

closer to the central axis of the body (opposite of superficial, ex: an organ lies deep to another organ which means the organ lies closer to the center of a body or closer to the center of a limb)

42
Q

External :

A

outside of the cavity or body

43
Q

Internal:

A

within the cavity or body

44
Q

Distal:

A

away from midline (used for appendiceal structures, such as arms and legs)

45
Q

Medial/Mesial:

A

toward midline (used for appendiceal structures, such as arms and legs)

46
Q

PRESENT POSITION OF ACTUAL BODY (4):

Superior
Inferior
Prone
Supine

Superior:

A

above, farther from the ground (ex: in the anatomical position our hips are superior to our feet)

48
Q

Inferior:

A

below, closer to the ground (ex: in the anatomical position our feet are inferior to our hips)

49
Q

Prone:

A

lying on the belly

50
Q

Supine:

A

lying on the back

51
Q

- Proximal

52
Q

Lateral:

to the side

53
Q

Proximal:

A

near a body or structure

54
Q

AXIAL SKELETON:

A

the portion of the skeleton that consists of the head and trunk, with the spinal column as the axis (the core of the body, including the thorax and abdomen).

55
Q

APPENDICULAR SKELETON:

A

the portion of the skeleton that includes only the lower and upper limps / extremities (appendicular / appendages).

56
Q

TERMS ASSOCIATED WITH MOVEMENT (4):

A
  • Flexion
  • Extension
  • Plantar
  • Palmar
57
Q

Flexion:

A

bending at a joint

58
Q

Extension:

A

pulling two ends farther apart; opposite of flexion

59
Q

Plantar:

A

referring to the sole of the foot

60
Q

Palmar:

A

referring to the palm of the hand

61
Q

TERMS FOR REGIONS OF THE BODY (6):

A
  • Thorax
  • Abdomen
  • Pelvis
  • Cranium
  • Upper extremity
  • Lower extremity
62
Q

Thorax:

A

the chest region (region that houses things like our lungs, heart)

63
Q

Abdomen:

A

the region represented externally as the anterior abdominal wall (portion of our abs between our chest region and pelvis)

64
Q

Pelvis:

A

the area of the hip bones (sits right below the abdomen, helps us to sit and extend our legs)

65
Q

Cranium:

A

the part of the skull that houses the brain

66
Q

Upper extremity:

A

the region consisting of the arm, forearm, wrist, and hand

67
