Chap 1: anatomy neuro anatomy and physiology of speech mech Flashcards
Respiration structures (6)
lungs bronchi trachea spinal column sternum Rib cage
Define: respiration, phonation, resonation as applies to SLP
Resp: energy for speech
Phon: voicing and structures create voice
Reson: voice or laryngeal tone that is modified by supra laryngeal cavitities and structures
Respiratory patterns during speech production
Inspiration -> brings oxygen to blood
Expiration -> rid of air/gas from resp metabolism
When CO2 excess -> need O2 medulla mess 2 Resp muscles
Inspir: exchange O2 & CO2 -
How do we inspire and expire?
- Diaphragm & Resp muscles expand ribs&lungs inhale air
Lungs expand -> pressure w/in lungs compared 2 outside lungs is reduced -> air moves lungs =izing pressures in & out lungs - Contract reduce chest -> + press w/in lungs, exhalation
- Exhale vf vibrate 4 speech -> depending sit maybe longer or deeper
Explain inhalation
Inhalation -> chest and lungs expand -> diaphragm lowers-> air flows in nose/mouth -> air goes down pharynx and btw open VF -> air continues downward towards trachea and bronchial tubes -> air reaches lungs
Lungs
Exchange gas in Resp in lungs
Rich vascular supply and numerous air sacs
@ Rest inflated 2 40% capacity
Rt lung shorter, broader and bigger bc liver pushes upward
Bronchi
Tubes that extend from lungs to trachea
Cartilaginous rings bound by fibroelastic tissue
Bronchi subdivide into BRONCHIOLES
They both divide & bc less cartilaginous & more muscular
Divide until very thin & communicate w/ alveolar ducts ( air sacs)
What is trachea and function?
Inhale air goes through larynx to trachea and lungs (expand)
- rings incomplete in back and direct contact w/ esophagus
Cricoid cart connects with 1st trach ring( bigger)
- trach extends from larynx @ 6th vertebra, last ring splits ( bifurcates) into L&R primary bronchi @ 5th thoracic vertebra
What is the spinal column?
32-33 individual vertebra (5) segments
- 7 cervical vertebrae ( C1-C7)
- 12 thoracic vertebrae ( T1-T12)
- 5 lumbar (L1-L5 )
- 3-4 coccygeal vertebrae fussed together
Thoracic attach 2 ribs
Lumbar R large and suitable for weight barring
What is sternum and it’s function?
(breastbone) located superior - anterior thoracic wall
3 parts:
MANUBRIUM : uppermost - attach clavicle and 1st rib
BODY (corpus)- long&narrow ribs2-7
Xiphoid process- small cartilaginous structure @ Btm of sternum
What are structures of rib cage & function
12 pairs of ribs form cylindrical structure
Rib cage holds&protects heart and lungs
structures :
Sternum anterior surface
12 thoracic vertebrae in posterior surface
12 pairs ribs connect 2 vertebrae & costal cartilage
Briefly describe three structures that are key to adequate respiration. What is the role of each structure?
Lungs Bronchi Trachea Spinal column Sternum Rib cage
Muscles of respiration
Thoracic muscles if inspiration - diaphragm -Abdomen -Intercostal - serratus posterior superior - levator costarum brevis/longis - external intercostal Abdominal muscles of expiration Pectoralis major/minor Serratus anterior Levator scapulae Rhomboideus major/minor Internal/innermost intercostal Transversus thoracicus P
Thoracic muscles of inspiration (5) part one
-diaphragm (C3-5)
Distended abdomen, enlarges vert dim of thorax, depress central tendon of diaphragm
-Abdomen
Holds liver kidney intestines & muscle
-Intercostal
11 paired internal pull ribs down decrease dia thoracic cavity 4 exhale, 11 paired internal raise ribs up
ELEVATE RIBS;
- serratus posterior superior ( C7, T1-T4)
- levator costarum brevis/longis (T2-T-12)
- external intercostal (T2-T11)
Thoracic muscles of inspiration part 2
6
Accessory muscles of the neck- sternocleidomastoid and trapezius
Sternocleidomastoid : elevates sternum &rib cage
Trapezius: control head and neck
Muscles of shoulder and upper arm:
Pectoralis major/minor C4-T1- + Transverse dim of rib cage by elevate sternum
Serratus anterior C5-C7 : elevates ribs 1-9
Muscles of respiration part 3 (6)
Levator scapulae (C3-C5) elevates scapula- support neck
Rhomboideius major/minor (C5) stabilizes shoulder girdle
Internal/innermost intercostal T2- T11
Depresses ribs 1-11
Transverse thoracicus T2-T6
Depress ribs 2-6
ABdominal muscles of expiration (5)
Latissimus dorsi (C6-C8) Stable post abdm wall 4 expir Rectus abdominus (T7-T12) flexes vertebrae column Transversus abdominis(T7-T12) compress abdomen Internal oblique abdominis (T7-T12) compress abdomen flex & rotate trunk Quadratus lumborum (T12, L1-L4) supports abdominal compression through bilateral contraction
Summary of respiration
Respiration exchange gas between organism and environment - necessary for life & foundation of speech
Framework supports muscles necessary 4 Resp ( 2 main categories - thoracic (inspiration) abdominal (expiration)
Resp foundation and energy for phonation
Phonation structures and process
Voice box - top of trachea houses VF - vibrate=speech
Intrinsic and extrinsic laryngeal muscles necessary
Cortical areas, cerebellum, CN
V II- X
Structures: Lungs, larynx (valving mech open and closes) , VF
VF ADDUCTION VS ABDUCTION
Adduct ( toward midline)
Abduct ( away from midline )
VF abducted
Larynx biological functions (3)
(A) closure of trachea so food and other substances don’t enter lungs
(B) production cough reflex 2 expel foreign material in trachea
(C) closure of the VF build subglottic pressure necessary for physical exertion and lifting heavy items
Laryngeal structures and cartilages
Larynx -> suspended U shape hyoid bone
Hyoid bone: floats between mandible and jaw) muscles of tongue and mandible, skull, larynx attached to hyoid
Epiglottis: protective structure - leaf shaped cartilage medial thyroid cartilage & hyoid - swallow drops and protects oropharynx
Thyroid, Artenoid, cricoid cartilages
Cornice late cartilages
What are the laryngeal cartilages ? (5)
Thyroid cartilage - anterior and lateral walls of larynx & protects larynx
Cricoid cartilage - uppermost trach ring surrounds trachea
Artenoid cartilage - small pyramid-shape connect 2 cricoid- sliding and circular movements
Corniculate cartilages : apex of Artenoid, reduce laryngeal opening during swallow
Cuneiform : stiffen or tense aryepiglottic folds
What are Intrinsic laryngeal muscles and innervation ?
Thyroartenoid Internal thyroidartenoid Lateral cricoaryrenoid Transverse thyroartenoid Oblique thyroartenoid Cricothyroid
ALL INNERVATED BY CN X
