Exam 3 Flashcards
atlanto-occipital joint type:
synovial condyloid
antlantoaxial joint type:
- median: synovial pivot
- 2 lateral: synovial, condyloid?
interbody joint types:
symphyses (amphiarthroses)
facet joint types
synovial planar
vertebrocostal joint types:
synovial planar
c-spine flexion:
40-60 degrees
for lab: 0-50
c-spine extension
60-80 degrees
for lab: 0-80
c-spine lateral flexion
35-50 degrees
for lab: 0-45
c-spine rotation
65-90 degrees
for lab: 0-80
c-spine open pack positon
slight extension
c-spine closed pack position
full extension
c-spine capsular pattern
side flexion and rotation equally limited, then extension
effect of max flexion on size of intervertebral foramen
- causes an upward/forward movement of inferior articular facet of superior vertebrae
- opening of apophyseal joint increases size of intervertebral foramen
- provides greater room for passage of spinal nerve root
innervation of interbody joints
ventral rami: sinuvertebral nerves
innervation of PLL
ventral rami: sinuvertebral nerves
innervation of z joint capsules
