Q

what are the 5 anatomical-physiological elements of primary respiratory motion?

A

there is motility of the brain and spinal cord

the csf fluctuates

the intracranial and intraspinal membranes move

the cranial bones move

the movement between the sacrum and ilium depend on the motion at the SBS

Q

motion characteristics of the CRI

A

RRADS

rhytmn: regular/tide of an ocean with some variations

amplitude: amount of movement (mm of movement)- somatic dysfunction may have decreased amplitude

direction: linear and symmetric, in SD it will be assymmetric

strength: good strong motion? does it have vitality, is it weak?

Q

a study was done in 2018 looking at the brain there were slices done every 45 seconds that revealed _ motions of brain tissue. there was a change in _ but no change in _ of the head

A

sub-voxel motions

area, widthm heightm feret, major axis

no change in perimeter and minor axis

26
Q

what are the main poles of attachement for the RTM (reciprocal tension membrane)

A

frontal, sphenoid, temporal, occipital

27
Q

the RTM and dura have a signifigant role in _ flow

A

vascular

28
Q

the _ sinus runs between the two folds of the dura

A

sagital sinus

there is also the confluence of sinues, tranverse sinus, and straight sinus is the venous sinus space in between the folds

29
Q

_ mobility and _ signifigantly impacts the PRM (primary respiratory movement)

A

fascial

continuity

30
Q

what are the 4 main fascial layers

A

pannicular, axial/appendicular, menningial, visceral

31
Q

what fascial layer includes the dura and surrounds the nervous system

A

meningeal fascia

32
Q

there is _ of the fascia from head to toe

A

continuity

33
Q

in flexion what does the SBS do

A

it rises superiorly

distance between the inferior angle of the spenoid and ossiput DECREASES

the head will widen and DECREASE its AP diameter becoming more spherical and increasing total internal volume

Q

cranial inhalation = sbs _

A

flexion

35

in SBS extension what happens

A

greater wing moves superiorly and posteriorly (head tall and narrow)

people die with exhalation

36
Q

cranial exhalation= sbs _

38
Q
