Q

Development of face: week 3

A
  • ventral aspect of forebrain develops into frontonasal process
    • nasal placodes develop on either side
    • give rise to nasal pits that divide frontonasal process into medial & 2 lateral segments
  • mandibular arch gives rise to maxillary process on each side
30
Q

Development of face: week 5

A

Face divided into 4 primordial areas:

  1. frontonasal proess: lateral nasal processes grow slower than medial
  2. maxillary process:
    • still can’t be differentiated from mandibular arch.
    • Frontonasal & maxillary processes fuse & constrict opening of nasal pits.
  3. mandibular arch
  4. hyoid arch
31
Q

Development of face: week 6

A

Embryo is 9 mm long

  • Eye begins to develop laterally (starts on side & moves to front)
  • Medial nasal process narrows & anterior growth begins
  • Maxillary & medial nasal processes fuse, creating shelf called primary palate
32
Q

Development of face: week 7

A
  • Nasal area more prominent
  • Eyes move anteriorly
  • Not much change in mandible
33
Q

Development of face: week 8

A
  • Mouth opening narrows, forming cheeks
  • Head grows vertically, increasing height of oral cavity
  • Palate still incomplete
34
Q

Primary palate vs. secondary palate

A
  • Primary palate: will develop into upper lip & anterior portion of alveolar ridge
  • Secondary palate: remaining hard palate and all of soft palate
35
Q

Development of palate

A
  • Primary palate fuses in front first.
  • Tongue has to drop with growth of mandibular arch before palate can fuse.
  • Should be complete by 12 weeks.
36
Q

Development of tongue

A
  • Arises from branchial arches.
  • Base of tongue, apex, & body evident by wk 7.
  • Mucous membrane develops first, followed by striated muscle fibers.
37
Q

A
  • Develops from the pharyngeal pouches which arise from the foregut
  • Laryngotracheal groove appears around 4 wks
    • deepens & fuses to form laryngeotracheal tube
    • lined with endoderm which becomes epithelial tissue
  • In wks 8-10, cranial end becomes trachea & larynx; caudal end becomes bronchi & lungs
38
Q

Development of external ear

A
  • Around wks 8-10
  • Formed from 1st & 2nd arches & 1st branchial groove
  • EAM from 1st branchial groove

39
Q

Neuromuscular junction

A

Point where neuron and muscle communicate.

40
Q

Innervation ratio

A

of muscle fibers innervated by one motor neuron

  • muscles used for crude movements will have more muscle fibers innervated by one motor neuron
  • muscles used for finer movements will have fewer muscle fibers innervated by one motor neuron.
41
Q

Motor unit

A

Array of one motor neuron & its muscle fibers.

42
Q

Motor endplate

A

Junction of final motor neuron & muscle fiber.

43
Q

Muscle Action Potential (MAP)

A

Action potential from brain that spreads along muscle fiber.

44
Q

Sarcomere

A

1 segment of mibrofybril in a striated muscle fiber.

45
Q

Myofibril & muscle fiber

A

Muscle fiber is one strand of a striated muscle. Made up of myofibril.

46
Q

Myosin & Actin

A
  • Myosin: thick filaments of myofibril
  • Actin: thin filaments of myofibril
47
Q

Sliding filament hypothesis

A

When a motor action potential stimulates the release of calcium, the binding site on the actin is uncovered, and cross-bridges from the myosin swing up and attach to these binding sites. These cross bridges then pull the actin filaments toward the center of the sarcomere (segment of muscle), causing the actin and myosin to slide over one another and the muscle to contract.

48
Q

Force generation by muscles

A

When muscle contracts, contractile components shorten & elastic portion stretches

  • isometric contraction: muscle tendon is held rigid & tension is built up (holding books)
  • isotonic shortening: tendon is released, muscle shortens & load is moved (lifting books)
49
Q

2 ways to build up muscle force

A
  1. A faster firing rate, or a faster rate of action potentials and subsequent contractions.
  2. Recruitment of more motor units―recruiting additional motor neurons causes a greater number of muscle fibers to contract, resulting in more force generated.
50
Q

Pyriform sinuses

A

Spaces formed between the lateral insertion of the inferior constrictor & the lateral walls of the thyroid cartilage.

51
Q

Esophagus

A
  • empty tube about 20 cm long
  • has two layers of muscle - inner and outer
  • proximal 1/4 composed of striated muscle
  • next 1/4 composed of a mixture of striated and smooth muscle
  • distal 1/2 composed of smooth muscle
52
Q

Role of larynx & trachea during swallow.

A

During swallowing the larynx moves up and forward to protect the opening to the trachea and keep food or liquid from entering it.

53
Q

Phase 1 of swallowing: oral prep

A
  • voluntary phase that involves what you do to get the food or liquid into your mouth
  • can involve the teeth, tongue, lip, or jaw, depending on the substance being taken in
  • influenced by the taste or environment and the individual’s thirst, hunger, or motivation.
54
Q

Phase 2 of swallowing: oral

A
  • voluntary phase that includes the formation of the bolus and the transport of the bolus through the mouth
  • after the bolus is formed it is put on the tongue, which forms a groove by raising the sides of the tongue and tilting it back.
  • the lip and buccal muscles contract, the posterior tongue depresses, and the soft palate elevates, all of which push the bolus to the back of the mouth.
55
Q

Phase 3 of swallowing: pharyngeal

A
  • involuntary phase that involves coordinated movements that propel the bolus into the esophagus
  • movements are triggered when the bolus passes through the faucial arches
  • lips and velopharyngeal port close, the arytenoids approximate and close the vocal folds, and the epiglottis covers the aditus laryngus to protect the airway
56
Q

Phase 4 of swallowing: esophageal

A
  • involuntary phase that begins after the bolus enters the esophagus
  • peristaltic contractions push the bolus toward the stomach in 8-20 seconds.
  • at the bottom, the lower esophageal sphincter relaxes to allow passage of the bolus into the stomach
57
Q

3 levels of safety for the larynx during swallowing

A
  1. epiglottis
  2. false vocal folds
  3. true vocal folds
58
Q

3 biomechanical valves involved in swallowing

A
  1. soft palate & superior constrictor to close velopharyngeal port
  2. laryngeal airway (closed by epiglottis)
  3. upper esophageal sphincter & cricopharyngeus muscle (opens to allow bolus in)
59
Q

Dysphagia

A

Difficulty in swallowing. Caused by:

  • neuromuscular/neuromotor disorders
  • congenital disorders (e.g., cerebral palsy)
  • stroke
  • TBI
  • head & neck cancer
60
Q

Aspiration

A

Food/drink goes past true VFs into airway. Causes aspiration pneumonia.

61
Q

Swallowing assessment: clinical

A
  • pros: can be done at bedside so the patient does not have to be transported
  • cons: the SLP can’t detect silent aspiration or pocketing in the valleculae or pyriform sinuses.
62
Q

Swallowing assessment: Modified barium swallow

A
  • pros: gives a better view of what is going on
  • cons: exposes patient to radiation and requires that they be transported to radiology.
63
Q

Swallowing assessment: FEES

A
  • pros: gives a clearer view of the airway and is easier to do at bedside
  • cons: you lose visual when the velum raises and therefore see only what happens before and after the swallow.
64
Q

Swallowing assessment: ultrasound

A
  • pros: gives a good idea of timing
  • cons: doesn’t give a clear visual (not used often)
