26
Q

a small, smooth, flat surface on the bone

  • they are found in the thoracic spine at the point of contact at a rib
27
Q

The curves of the spine provide stability as if the spine were a straight rod, the spine would not be stable at all

  • In fact, the strength is _______times what it would be if the spine were straight
28
Q

this is the articulation between the superior articular process with the inferior articulate process of the vertebra above

A

A facet joint

29
Q

Motions occur in all three planes of motion in the spine

A

Flexion/extension
Abduction/adduction (side bending)
Rotation

30
Q

Motion at the Occiput and C1 is called?

A

the atlanto-occipital joint

  • Main motion is flexion and extension
31
Q

Most of the lateral flexion and rotation in the spine occurs where?

A

at C1 and C2 or the atlanto-axial joint

32
Q

Muscles that have the most influence on O/C1 and C1/C2 are what ?

A
  • prevertebral muscles anteriorly
  • suboccipitals posteriorly
33
Q

Tucking your chin and neck extension is cervical ?

A

retraction

34
Q

Extending your head and flexing your head is cervical what?

It’s the pigeon bob – forward is protraction, backwards is retraction

A

protraction

35
Q

The skull is made up of how many bones?

luckily, we will only be talking about the ones that articulate with the spine

long and prominent spinous process, resembles a thoracic verteba

57
Q

Joints to familiarize yourself with fyi

Limit/allow the amount of movement at any given vertebral joint
In the lumbar area, they are in the sagittal plane
In the thoracic area, they are in the frontal plane

58
Q

runs down the vertebral column on the anterior surface of the bodies and limits hyperextension

A

Anterior longitudinal ligament

59
Q

runs along the vertebral bodies posteriorly inside of the vertebral foramen preventing hyperflexion

A

Posterior longitudinal ligament

60
Q

extends from C7 distally to the sacrum posteriorly along the tips of the spinous process

A

Supraspinal ligament

61
Q

connects adjacent laminae anteriorly

A

Ligamentum flavum

62
Q

Fun Facts

  • The lumbar spine is the region of the body most often injured due to its mobility and the location of the center of gravity
  • The thoracic spine has much less ROM due to the attachments of the rib cage
  • The cervical spine is freely mobile – allows for freedom of motion, allows for entrance and exit of the blood vessels in the skull
63
Q

You will be responsible for the following muscles and all the OIAN’s that go along with them: of the spine

A
  • Sternocleidomastoid
  • Scalene muscles
  • Splenius capitis
  • Splenius cervicis
  • Rectus abdominus
  • External oblique
  • Internal oblique
  • Transverse abdominus
  • Erector spinae
  • Transversospinalis
  • Interspinalis
  • Intertransversarii
