the right IJV lacks valves; the Left IJV has 1 valve! So you can see the pressure of the Right side of the heart by measuring the hight of the right IJV pulse

what forms the superior cervical gangleon?

A

C1,C2,C3,C4

103

105
Q

Describe the innervation of the sympathetics of the eye, sweat glands of face etc. and blood vessels in the head/neck.

A

sympathetic motor neurons arise from the T1 lateral horn primarily send out pre-synaptic neuron through the white matter communicon, up the sympathetic chain to synapse at the superior sypathetic gangleon, then out the gray matter comunicon and onto the ICA, and like christmas lights it spirals its way up and follow the arteries all over!

106
Q

what uses the white matter communicon

A

the presynaptic sympathetic nerve (traveling up and down the chain or right into a gangleon to synapse), and the incoming visceral sensory (these guys are mylanated!)

107
