cervical anatomy session Flashcards
the musculoskeletal system works together to provide the body with what
support,protection and movement
the vertebral column consists of what
cervical,lumber,thorax,sacral and coccygeal
characteristics of the cervical vertebrae
small size
saddle-shaped body
bifid spinous process
characteristics of the atlas vertebrae
has no bifid spinous process and no vertebral body
connects the skull and spine
articulates with the occiput and the axis
has a lateral mass connected by the anterior and posterior arch
function of the atlas ligament
maintains the odontoid process
functions of the alar ligament
limits the axial rotation in the occipital alanto axial complex and side bending
it is the most stretched ligament when the head is rotated and flexed
features of the axis ligament
forms a pivot for the atlas to rotate
has a vertebral body and foramen
heavy pedicles and laminae
has a strong odontoid process
has a transverse process
where does the nucal ligament start from and end to
external occipital protuberence
and atlas and ends in c7
the cervical plexus consists of cervical
c1-c5
the brachial plexus consists of
c6-t1
what are the two types of nerve roots
dorsal root
ventral root
funtions of the dorsal root
carries SENSORY signals back to the brain from the nerve root DERMATOME which innervates the SKIN
functions of the ventral root
carries MOTOR signals AWAY from the brain to the nerve roots MYOTOME which innervates the MUSCLES
The merging of the dorsal and ventral roots makes up what
the spinal nerve
where does the ventral and dorsal root merge
intervertebral foramen
what cervical vertebrae doesnt have a dermatome
c1
3 layers of examinant findings in msd and thier functions
body structure layer-muscle weakness,pain,posture
adl layer-limitation in walking,driving etc
psychosocial layer-kinesophobia [restriction in talking part]
what are the framework for assessment
icf and nagi scheme
icf consists of
impairment
activity limitation
participation limitation
nagi scheme consists of
pathology
impairement
functional limitation
disability
explain the pathokinesiology method of evaluation
this has to do with an abnormality, damage or trauma to the musculoskeletal system this is also close to an orthopedic assessment
explain kinesiopathology approach for evaluation
the static load and repititive movement is involved and this can cause dysfunction in movement components
what kind of disorder is caused by injury or degradation of the cervical structures
cervical spine disorders
what system of the body does the mechanical disorder affect
locomotor system
what disorder is related to aging spine
mechanical disorrder
what are the traditional and contemporary concepts in management of physiotherapy
treatment of anatomical units modified to the physiologic unit
symptomatic approach changed to causative approach
attention to patient rehabilitation cahngd to attention to disease rehab
the latter treatments emphasized 3 factors of treatment includes
biological
psychological
biopsychosocial
the former management of physiotherapy focused on what
biological factors
what are the models of evaluation and assessment
patho kinesiology model
kinesio pathology model
