Cranial Nerves Flashcards
What are the modalities of the nerves
Some Say Marry Money But My Brother Sas Big Brains Matter More
What are the functions of the olfactory nerves
Olfaction - smell
Special sensory
What does the olfactory nerve innervate
Olfactory epithelia
What are the function of the optic nerve
Special sensory
Vision
What dos the optic nerve innervate
The retina
What is the motor aspect of the oculomotor nerve innervate and do
Most of the extraocular
Except lateral rectus or superior oblique
Movement of eyeball
What is the parasympathetic contribution of the oculomotor nerve
Pupillary constrictor
Ciliary muscle of the eyeball
Which are both innervated by the ciliary ganglion
What does the trochlear nerve do
Motor innervation to the superior oblique extraocular muscle
What is the sensory contribution of the trigeminal nerve
Face Scalp Conrea Nasal and oral cavities Cranial dura mater
General sensation
What si the motor aspect of the trigeminal
Muscles of mastication - opening and closing mouth
Tensor tympani muscle - tension of tymp mem
What is the action of the abducens nerve
Motor innervation of lateral rectus movement of he eyeball
What’s the sensory aspect of the facial nerve
Special sensory of taste to the anterior 2/3 of tongue via lingual nerve with chorda tympani
What’s the Motor aspect of the facial nerve
Muscles of facial expression
Stapedius muscle - tension of ossicles
What is the parasympathetic innervation of the facial nerves
Salivary and lacrimal glands via submandibular and pterygopalatine ganglia
What’s the function of the vestibulocochlear nerve
Sensory to cochlea (hearing) and vestibular apparatus (balance)
Where does the Glossopharyngeal supply sensory innervation to
Eustachian tube middle ear - general sensation
Carotid body and sinus - chemo/baroreception
Pharynx and post 1/3 tongue - taste
What’s it eh motor function of the Glossopharyngeal
Stylophafyngeus
Swallowing
What’s it eh parasympathetic contribution of the Glossopharyngeal
Salivary glands via otic ganglion
What is the vagus sensory innervation
Pharynx larynx oes and external eat - general sensation
Aortic body and arch - chemo/baroreception
Visceral sensation
What’s it eh motor function of th vagus
Soft palate, larynx, pharynx upper oes
Allowing speech and swallowing
What’s the parasympathetic contribution of the vagus
Control of cardio, RESP and GI systems
What does accessory nerve do
Motor innervation to the scm and trapezius allowing movements of the head and neck
What does the hypoglossal nerve do
Motor innervation to intrinsic and extrinsic muscles of the tongue Exceot palatoglosses which is innervated by vagus
Where do the nerves originate
1,2 --> brain 3,4 --> midbrain 5 --> pons 6,7,8 --> junction between pons and medulla 9,10,12 --> medulla 11 --> spinal cord
