Q
Oral Prep Phrase:
swallow phase is where ?
prior to ?
tongue moves 
...,... movements of jaw ?
chewing continues ? but may be ?
bolus? and? by the tongue against the ?
A

food/liquid is prepared for further phases of swallowing

  • oral phase of swallow
  • bolus laterally to the molars
  • crushing, repetitive movements of jaw reduce bolus size
  • reflexively once initiated/volitionally altered
  • centralized and compressed by the tongue against the hard palate for transfer in later phase

Q

buccinator function: forms ?

can’t ? if you can’t?

A

pressure in mouth to help form bolus in center of the tongue and elevate against hard palate

increase or decrease pressure in oral cavity if you can’t move muscles in cheek

Q

Innervation of Mastication:
which CN nerve ?
three branches:

A

V (5) trigeminal: tell muscles to move and send sensory info back to brain (sensory and motor)

opthalmic (V1)
Maxillary branch (V2) sensory is primary function
Mandibular branch: only one in control of making muscles move (motor movement and therefore chewing)

Q
Salivary Glands: 
produce both ? 
saliva is very important in  ?
over ? in human saliva 
reduction may lead to 
three major sets of salivary glands: 

Innervated by? n

A

serous and mucous components to aid in formation of lubrication of the bolus

  • digestion, oral health, taste facilitation
  • 1000 proteins
  • xerostomia (dry mouth)

submandibular, parotid, sublingual

CN VII and IX (facial and glossopharyngeal)

Q
Oral Cavity: 
... receptors on?
-
-
-
-

sensory information from these is transmitted via ?

thermoreceptors: via
chemoreceptors: are mediated by ?

A

mechanical (touch/pressure)

  • tongue
  • teeth
  • gums
  • palate

CN V to the brainstem which coordinates swallow efforts

temperature sensors: sensory branch of CN V

  • taste receptors - mediated by CN VII (anterior 2/3 of the tongue) allows to produce saliva

CN IX (glossopharyngeal) posterior 1/3 of tongue

Q
oral phase: 
waiting bolus is ?
bolus moves cohesively from?
key structure in this movement is ?
muscles that control tongue in in A>P propulsion?

base of tongue ?

velum elevation to seal nasopharynx via:

A

propelled posteriorly

oral cavity into the oropharynx

tongue

CN XII

  • intrisnic muscles of the tongue
  • extrinsic muscles of the tongue

elevates palatoglossus (CN IX, X)

palatopharyngeus (CN IX and X)
levator muscle of the velum palatini (CN X and XI)

Q

At beginning of oral phase:

ends when bolus enters?

A

roof of mouth

oropharynx

Q

pharyngeal phase:
generally from the ? until passage through?

a series of ?

  • … closure
  • inversion of
  • anterior/superior movement of

  • proressive
  • opening of ?
A

onset of swallow trigger/the UES

  • involuntary events of airway protection and bolus propulsion
  • velopharyngeal closure
  • epiglottis
  • movement of hyolaryngeal complex
  • ventricular and true vocal folds
  • pharyngeal contraction
  • UES
19
Q

once swallow trigger - it is

peristalsis does not happen in

involuntary

-pharyngeal phase of swallow

20
Q
Sequence:

All take place in duration of?

A
swallow trigger
hyolaryngeal 
-laryngeal protection
-pharyngeal constriction/contraction
-UES 

approx. 1 second and overlap

21
Q
Pharyngeal swallow trigger: 
-sensory input, which is ?, stimulates sensors to ? responsible for motor instruction to muscles of the ?
-
-
-
-
innervated by ?
A

bolus-dependent/activate the cranial nerves (CNs VII, IX, X)

  • velum
  • pharynx
  • larynx
  • UES

CN IX, X, XI

22
Q

trigger continued:
-CNs ..,..,.. sensory fibers carry info to the ? in the brainstem

NTS signals the ? to fire motor responses of ?

  • this motor output is known as the ?
  • NTS can be thought of as
A

VII, IX, and X / nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS)

  • nucleus ambiguus/ CNs IX, X, XI

catcher of info

23
Q

Where’s the sensation?

  • many areas of the aerodigestive tract can ?
  • most research has been focused on the ?
  • common point of trigger for?
  • newer studies state lower regions of the ? to be normal in older adults

-most of all normal swallows trigger when bolus reaches?

A
  • trigger pharyngeal swallow
  • anterior faucial arches via strong connections with CN IX
  • pharynx

-the base of the tongue at the level of the lower edge of the mandible

24
Q

  • newer evidence suggests that the … is the most important muscle in pulling?
  • this retraction elevates the ? and is maintianed throughout ?
