Q

tell me three things about the spinal cord:

A
  1. foramen magnum goes to L1-L2

Q

what is a bad thing that can happen because the cervical and lumbar region are bigger?

26
Q

tell me something special about the medial group?

A

it does not enter into the dorsal horn

connects start up to the column goes in adn out

27
Q

a medial group that doesn’t connect in the sp. cord includes:

A

the dorsal column/ med lemniscus

because connects in dorsal column not the dorsal horn

28
Q

the group that DOES connect in dorsal horn is

A

the pain / temperature pathway which is spinothalamic

29
Q

list four things to not harm neuron grow?

A
  1. edema protection
  2. prevent injury
  3. maintain ROM
  4. ensure tissue health
30
Q

a phasic stretch doesn’t go where?

A

the brain.

it stops in the sp. cord and comes right back out

31
Q

what fiber initates the withdrawal reflex?

A

a -delta

32
Q

a deep tendon pressure activates what?

A

the Golgi tendon organs

33
Q

where does input from a deep tendon pressure come from: location wise

A

activation from below

inhibition from above

34
Q

deep tendon pressure overall is

A

inhibitory : trying to release muscle

35
Q

a quick stretch is overall for

A

facilitation

36
Q

location of input from quick stretch

A

facilitation from brain and down (you doing the stretch)

37
Q

tell me a def of coordination and then three things about it

A

so one alpha MN gets convergence of info comes from :

  1. Ia, Ib, II
  2. interneuons
  3. descending motor tracts
38
Q

two fx of the spinal cord:

A
  1. transmits info in columns

2. processes info at synapses

39
Q

what two informational things can be processed at the synapse:

A
  1. pain reduction in dorsal horn

2. activating LMN and UMN in the ventral horn

40
Q

def of a spinal segment:

A

all the axons that are associated with one spinal nerve

41
Q

can a pt lose touch and still feel pain?

A

yes and vice versa

42
Q

if you need to pull CSF from somewhere where would you pull it?

A

INSIDE

mostly in subarachnoid place

43
Q

three layers of meniges are?

A

dura mater
arachnoid mater
pia mater

44
Q

important to know that menignes

A

travel down the sp cord all the way down to cauda equina

45
Q

inside the cauda equina is

A

epidural space

46
Q

the def of the cauda equina

A

is ventral and dorsal nerve traveling down and getting ready to leave / exit the spinal cord

horses hair

47
Q

four responses for the bladder:

A

parasympathic
sympathtic
somatic
stretch of wall

48
Q

parasympathetic does what to bladder?

A

contracts to empty it

49
Q

sympathetic does what to the bladder?

A

relaxes it to not empty

50
Q

parasympathetic vs. sympathetic for the bladder?

A 
para = CONTRACT 
sympathetic = DONT
51
Q

list the two different sp cord centers?

A

efferent
- preganglionic SNS and PNS
afferent
- bladder wall

52
Q

where are afferent receptors for the bladder

A

on the bladder wall

53
Q

where are efferent receptors for the bladder?

A

synapses of the prganglion SNS and PNS

54
Q

the frontal center has what?

A

the modulatory center: give signal to go

55
Q

the pontine center has what?

A

the control center: helps turn on or off emptying

56
Q

touch and proproception goes all the way to the

A

cauda medulla

57
Q

where does the touch and proprioception cross

A

the cauda medulla

58
Q

the affects of dx touch and proprioception happen

A

ipslaterally

59
Q

pain and temp path cross where?

A

the spinal cord

60
Q

pain and temp dx affects happen how?

A

contralaterally

61
Q

voluntary movement crosses where?

A

the cauda medulla

62
Q

voluntary movement dx affects happen how?

A

contralaterally

- because already crossed

63
Q

do the crosses location and damage apperance of all three pathways:

A 
touch / proprioception: 
- cauda medulla 
- ipslaterally 
pain and temp
- sp. cord 
- contralaterally 
volutnary movement 
- cauda medulla 
- contralaterally
