Clinical Research And Application Of OCMM Flashcards
Sutures are what kind of joints
Fibrous joints with dense CT = synarthosis
Dysfunction on cranial bone effects brain, arteries, veins how
Direct connection to dura and arachnoid
Problems in the superior orbital fissure
Effects CN 6 = Diplopia, Esotropia, Bell’s Palsy
Problems with acuoustic meatus or stylomastoid foramen
CN 8 enters and exits there respectively, : tennitus, vertigo, hearing loss
Problems with jugular foramen
CN 9 + CN10 = Headaches, arrythmias, GI probs, Resp probs,
CN10 can be effected by C2 or OA/AA problems
Problems with C1-C6 as they enter the foramen magnum can cause
CN11 problems : enters formen magnus and exits jugular foramen
= SCM or Trapezius problems
Palatine Bone probelms can casue what
Involves the Pterigo/ sphenopalatine ganglion = changing Trigeminal output
- Mastication muscles, Tensor Tympani muscles, anterior belly of digastric
- Can lead to TMJ, problems swallowing, speech, feeding in newborns
Ear or Temporal Bone problems
Eustation tube passes temporal bone + greater wing if sphenoid, and exits auditory canal
- Otitis Media
- ETD : fluid and lower hearing and higher chance of infection
Cephalgia “Headaches” is caused by what
- Distention, traction, dilation of intracranial or extracranal ARTERIES, 2 most common
= Middle Meningial A,
= Superficial Temporal A - Impaired Venous drainage , sinuses
What can squeeze the CN7
Tempora bone torsion
Trigeminal Neuralgia
V2 Maxillary N (of Trigeminal N)
- Squeezing Meckel’s cave where it lives
- Sphenoid flexing and temporal bone not moving —> Squeezes bone
Parietal Bones can move relative to what
CO2 levels, CSF Pressure, BP, and induced Apnea = connecion to ANS
Motion of Temporal Bones due to
CSF P, BP, Resp. = also connected to ANS
Sagittal Suture motion
No change from any ANS cause, however motion causing LATERAL MOTION + ROTATION at parietal bones
Russian space people fouhnd breathing rate of cranium to be
6-14 cycles per minute
Traub Herind found what associated with Arterial BP waves
Ateach peak of a wave the cranium when to Flexion and then extension and then flexion….
At at the bottom of each peak it went back to normal
Traub Herind found what after cranial manipulation was done
Waves had much higher amplitude and streghth
What effects the CSF P and arterial flow in the brain
Blood supply and oxygen consuption of cerebral tissue(brain funciton itself)
= BLOOD FLOW in brain causes cranial motion
Arteries in brain
Have a Pericyte that can sqeeze the BV and also has microglia measures env to turn on or off the pericyte
