Q

Biomechanical model

A
  1. Structures: postural muscles, spine, and extremities
  2. Fxn: posture and motion
  3. Health: efficient and effective posture and motion
  4. Disease:
    A. Somatic dysfxn: inefficient posture, joint restriction or hypermobility and instability
    B. Alternative postural mechanics:
    1. Affect dynamic fxn
    2. Inc energy use
    3. Alter proprioception
    4. Change joint structure
    5. Impede vascular, lymphatic, and neurologic fxn
  5. Pt. Care: alleviate somatic dysfxn w/ OMT -> normal motion and fxn

Q

Respiratory-circulatory model

A
  1. Structure: thoracic inlet and diaphragms, costal cage, heart, lungs, vasculature, lymphatics
  2. Fxn: resp, circ, venous and lymphatic drainage, maintain IC and EC envir. W/ O2 and nutrient delivery and waste elimination
  3. Health: efficient and effective arterial supply, venous and lymph drainage, effective resp
  4. Disease: vascular compromise, edema, tissue congestion, poor gas exchange
