Q

What causes the Traube-Hering Wave?

A

changes in blood flow velocity

glial cells may support cranial motion (both structurally + physiologically though regulating blood flow)

Q

What is the average cranial rhythmic impulse? how do you palpate it?

A

10-14 cycles/minute

light touch, relaxed

remember: CRI is separate from resp/circ phys, but it is influenced by them

Q

What causes the involuntary mobility of the sacrum?

A

physical extension of the influence of the PRM by way of spinal dura mater

Flexion/extension of the occiput (due to PRM) creates tractional forces upon dura that is translated to the sacrum

Q

_____ of the sacrum is matched with SBS ____.

A

Nutation of the sacrum is matched with SBS Extension

(basically exhalation goes with exhalation)

Q

During a research study, it was found that there wsa a change in respiration, BP, and CSF pressure when what occured?

A

external pressure was added to the temporal bones

was NOT seen when external pressure was added to sagittal suture (though still causes lateral and rotational movement at partietal bones)

Q

Study Question:

Define: Pterion, Asterion, Bregma, Lambda

A
  1. Pterion: region where the frontal, parietal, temporal, and sphenoid bones join together
  2. Asterion: point on the skull corresponding to the posterior end of the parietomastoid suture.
  3. Bregma: point or area of the skull where the sagittal and coronal sutures joining the parietal and frontal bones come together.
  4. Lambda: midpoint of the curve of best fit along the lambdoid suture

Q

Study Question:

What is SBS?

A

Sphenobasilar Symphysis

The SBS is where the basisphenoid & the basiocciput join to form a synchondrosis. A synchondrosis is an almost immovable joint between bones bound by a layer of cartilage.
