Q

Studies not ermporal bone and ear

A

Significant improvement in middle ear tympanic membrane motion and reduction in middle ear effusion

Benefit may also prevent the development of middle ear damage leading to hear problems

Q

Describe the study done in 2003 with 57 patients looking at tratment of otitis media with OCMM of babes 6 months to 6 years with 3 episodes of AOM in last 6 months or 4 in last year

A

Routine group
Routine group plus OCMM

Double blind

OMM fewer episodes AOM, fewer surgeries, more surgery free months, no adverse reactions
Treatment included full MSK evaluation including cranium

16
Q

What are cranial veins with dural envelope

A

Superior and inferior sagittal sinus
Straight sinus
Transverse sinuses

Outline of inner border of the dura

17
Q

How treat venous impairment

A

Restore normal motion to cranium

Treat bones connected to dura

18
Q

Patient has frequent headaches
Stressful job
Hypertonic cervical muscles

A

CN1,2,3 form the cervical plexus

Not relationship of superior cervical ganglion tothe second cervical vertebra

Note relationship of C1 to the inferior ganglion of the vagus

19
Q

Facial nerve passes through _ bone

A

Temporal

20
Q

Bell’s palsy

A

Ok

21
Q

Supratentorial sensory information si referred anteriorly via the ___ nerve

A

Trigeminal

22
Q

Infratentorial sensory information is referred tot he vertex and posterior head and neck by the upper 3 cranial nerves

A

7 9 10 refer pain to naso-orbital area, the ear and throat

23
Q

Trigeminal neuralgia

A

Lancinating pain in the face lasts between a few seconds and two minutes pain is incapacitation
Stimulus can be simple chewing or brushing teeth
V2

24
Q

V1

A

Superior orbital fissure

25
Q

What does through superior orbital fissure

A

V1, CN3-6

26
Q

V2

A

Foramen rotunsum

27
Q

V3

A

Transmits foramen ovale

28
Q

Trigeminal ganglion

A

In meckels cave on the superior surface of the pterosaurs ridge of the temporal bone

Has dural covering
Would a change in temporal bone position change dura tension in this area?

-well the tenrorium cerebri is tightly attached to the Petrozavodsk ridge. If the temporal bone s externally rotated and stays that wat this would put pressure on the structure deep to the tenrorium

29
Q

How treat trigeminal neuralgia

A

treat SBS and temporal dysfunctions

30
Q

Plagiocephaly

A

Crooked head or deformed cranial bones usually due to a difficult labor and delivery

Helmet head

31
Q

What treat with plagiocephaly

A

SBS, paired bones, sutures, compensatory changes in MS system

32
Q

Italian study neonatal ICU length stay of premature babies treated with OCMM an GI dysfunctions

A

Significant decreased number of GI dysfunctions and length of stay in ICE reduces

33
Q

Nervous system and balance functions by OCM

A

Health geriatric taints the OCMM improve balance and equilibrium
Population of patients with dizziness the dizziness was significantly reduced
Health of healthy college students the application of OCMM resulted in being able to fall a sleep faster and sleep longer

Suggests benefit in neurological functions
Resulted in OCMM being used in ashes of post op concussion syndrome and traumatic brain injury
