contralateral alar
27
reflex | referred pain to groin with kidney infection
autonomico-somatic
28
technique - cranial sacral dural pump
SOT
29

31
Organ malfunction - T9-T12
kidney
32
Korr and Levet - model component
muscle
33
directly affected by chiro thrust
kineosiopathological
34
weight bearing structures - compensation - theory
structural theory
35
fixation theory
Gillett
36
afferent - posterior horn causes
abnormal reflexes
37
mechanism - leg lengths
somato-somato reflex | tonic neck reflexes
38
axial compression spine- who gives what first
vertebral endplates
39
20 yo F pain in geep gluteal area radiates into anterior thigh
ovary
40
primary function of posterior motion segment
directional guidance
41
adjustment - LEAST likely to be involved
increased nociceptive impulses
42
young child - separation anxiety and nausea with crying
psyscho-visceral
43
hypothesis - manipulation stimulation of joint mechanoreceptors counteracts nociceptor activity and inhibits pain
somato-somatic reflex
44
condition MC predispose to vertebral a tortuosity
lower cervical disc degeneration
45
ligament - posterior part of vertebral canal
FLAVAL
46
focal N lesion - spinal nerve from
nerve compression
47
paraspinal muscle spasm leading to subluxation -thoery
somato-somatic
48
condition - produces greatest tendency toward subluxation
microtrauma
49
not part of spinal n
recurrent menigeal N
50
structure affected 1st in compression
vein
51
law - increased stress on bone - increased density
WOLF
52
weight bearing joints - function of spine - theory
functional
53
application of axial compression - who fails first
endplate
54
elastic tissue - to compression load
return to original shape once removed
55
subluxation of fibula - impinges
deep peroneal n
56
motion - stretches R vertebral a
extension and L rotation
57
dentate ligament connects to
Pia mater to dura mater
58
pressure in lumbar disc increased most in what position
sitting and bending forward
59
paresthesia - lateral thigh - spinal region
upper lumbar
60
NOT sclerotogenous pain
positive neurological finding
61
ligament most limits extension, rotation and lateral flexion in spine
Anterior longitudinal lig
62
ligament - LEAST significant at C1/2
apical lig
63
characteristic of pat with polo
flaccid paralysis
64
hip flexion NOT limited by
gastroc nemius
65
pat - MVA - 7 years ago - nausea and dizziness | turn head while backing out
vertebral basilar artery insufficiency
66
LEAST likely to find foraminal encroachment
C1 OR Thoracic(least mobile area)
67
proprioceptive insult
muscle spasm
68
pain from direct neurological compression
sharp and burning - distal to site of injury
69
vagal stimulation increased antibody titer and phagocytic activity - which subluxation model
neuro-immuno-modulation
70
decreases motion due to fatty fibrous infiltration from joint capsule cause
meniscoid entrapment
71
motion most limited in thoracic
extension
72
primary hypothesis of chiro
intervertebral subluxation
73
spinal fixation - abnormal reflexes | by
bombardment of dorsal horn cell (afferent impulses)
74
fibrosis in a joint- result of
inflammation
75
isolated motion below axis - most restricted
rotation
76
biochemical elements of fixation - NOT
lactic acid
77
C fibers - transmit pain to spinal cord - NOT contained in
anterior primary division of spinal n
78
size of spinal canal changes at different levels
increases from L1 - L5
79
vagotonia MCC
upper cervical lesion
80
over stimulation of sensory receptors - vertebral dis-relationships/subluxation - hypothesis
proprioceptive insult
81
compression impede impulse transmission - large afferent fibers BEFORE small fibers
large n fibers - are more easily deformed due to taking up more space
82
degenerative changes - chronic subluxation due to
increased biomechanical stress
83
+ response to adj - reynauds phenomena
somato-autonomic reflex
84
osteophyte into IVF C3-C4 - what spinal N
C4 spinal N
