Actions and Innvervations Flashcards
trapezius
CNX1
- elevation, retraction, depression of scapula
damage to spinal branch XI causes what problems with the trapezius?
partial paralysis:
- shoulder drop
- weakness in shoulder
- difficulty lifting upper limb >90
damage to spinal branch XI causes what problems with the sternocleidomastostoid?
- flaccid paralysis of sternocleidomastoid (SCM)
- torticollis
- contraction/fibrosis
latissimus dorsi
thoracodorsal nerve and artery
- extension of upper limb
- adduction of upper limb
- internal (medial) rotation of the arm
- moves trunk forward when humerus is fixed
levator scapulae
dorsal scapular nerve (C5)
- elevation of scapula
- rotation of glenohumeral joint
rhomboid major and minor
dorsal scapular nerve (C5)
- retraction
- rotation
SP superior innervation and blood supply
T2 to T5 intercostal nerves;
T2 to T5 posterior intercostal arteries
SP inferior innervation and blood supply
T9 to T12 intercostal arteries
T9 to T11 posterior intercostal nerves
T12 subcostal artery
thyrocervical trunk deep branch vascularizes what?
trapezius, levator scapulae, and thomboids
what anastomoses the superficial back?
- dorsal scapular a.
- suprascapular a.
- subscapular a. (&thoracodorsal)
arteries which supply the brain
vertebral arteries
bones united by fibrocartilage; strong but allow limited movement
symphysis
aqueous fluid similar to egg white for lubrictation
synovial fluid
gelatinous shock absorber which is part of the intervertebral disk (symphyses)
nucleus puluposus
nuchal ligament function
muscle attachments
- limits flexion
- separtes L and R compartments
suboccipital triangle muscles
nod and tilt head
deep intrinsic/segmental back muscles (rotatores, multifidus, semispinalis)
muscles of respiration
intermediate extrinsic back muscles (erector spinae)
lift trunk from bent over position
superficial intrinsic back muscles (splenius)
rotation, lateral flexion, extension of head
intrinsic back muscles and posterior neck muscles are innervated segmentally by ?
dorsal primary rami
thoracic, lumbar, and sacral nerves correspond to vertebrae _____
above
sternomastoid
innervation: CNXI
blood supply: multiple
scalene muscles
cervical nerves
elevate ribs 1 and 2
levator scapulae
elevates scapula
dorsal scapular nerve (C3 and 4)
dorsal scapular artery
splenius muscles
inn: dorsal rami of middle and lower cervical spinal nerves
extend, rotate, and laterally flex head
