Q

What is a subdural hemorrhage?

A

Accumulation of blood between dura and arachnoid mater. Acute is life threatening while chronic is less severe. Greatest risk are children(thinner veins) and elderly(longer bridging veins) with brain atrophy.

Arytenoid, corniculate, and cuniform

All cartilages are hyaline cartlage except epiglottis (elastic cartilage)

100
Q

Why are male vocal cords long?

Vestibule above and infraglottic below.

104
Q

What are the largest and most important laryngeal muscle?

A

The paired posterior cricoarytenoid muscles. They abduct the vocal cords ( we would be dead without them, open the airway during respiration)

105
Q

Function of the cricothyroid muscle (can be seen from anterior larynx)

A

Contracts to increase tension of vocal ligament (sing high notes)

106
Q

Where is most common location of laryngeal cancer?

A

Where the two types of epithelium join together

107
Q

Muscles that stick tongue out by raising hyoid bone?

A

Mylohyoid, anterior belly of digastric, and geniohyoid

108
Q

What is laryngitis?

A

Inflammation of the vocal cords due to a viral infection of respiratory epithelium and a seconday bacterial infection.

Edema within the vocal cords as well that prevents vibration and causes loss of voice.

Vocal cords turn from white to red.

109
Q

Recurrent laryngeal nerve innervates all intrinsic muscles of the larynx except what?

A

Cricothryoid muscle which is innervated by external laryngeal nerve off of the superior laryngeal nerve

110
Q

Where can an emergency airway be created?

Below the vocal cords sitting within the larynx such as the cricothyroid membrane(cricothyroidotomy). Also immediately below the cricoid cartilage (can be risky though). Also a suprasternal/jugular airway.

111
Q

What are the KLM sounds?

Kah- soft palate (vagus nerve)

La- testing tongue function (must touch hard palate)(hypoglossal nerve)

Ma- testing opening of mouth (orbicularis oris innervated by facial nerve-mandibular branch)

Sang- sends most of the air out of the nose rather than the oral cavity

112
Q

What innervates the parotid salivary gland?

A

Lesser petrosal nerve

113
Q

External- collect sound

Middle- recieve vibrations?

Inner- interpret

114

Originates along cartilage of auditory tube and attaches to the manubrium of the tympanic membrane (shock absorber

118
Q

2 shock abosrbers of the ear are innervated by what nerves?

A

Tensor tympani muscle (trigeminal) and stapedius (facial)

119
Q

What is a cholesteatoma?

A

Accumulation of dead skin starting at pars flaccida due to negative pressure in the inner ear. Can destroy any and all middle ear structures by compression. Lacks proper eustachian tube function and is secondary to middle ear infection

120
Q

Where does new bone formation that fixes the stapes in the oval window happen at?

A

Annular stapedial ligament.

121
Q

What is acoustic neuroma (vestibular Schawnnoma)?

Keep tongue anchored

146
Q

What fascial plane of the neck houses the trap and sternocleidomastoid?

A

Investing fascia

147
Q

What fascial plane of the neck houses the trap and sternocleidomastoid?

A

Investing fascia

148
Q

Where to perform a carotid body massage?

A

Massage carotid sinus in carotid triangle.
Surrounded by sternocleidomastoid, posterior belly of digastric, and omohyoid.
By massaging, you increase the pressure within the vessel thus increasing parasympathetic outflow by way of the vagus nerve inducing bradycardia.

149
Q

What runs in front of the anterior scalene muscle? Behind?

A

in front of the anterior scalene muscle? Behind?
Phrenic nerve and subclavian vein.

Brachial plexus and subclavian artery.

150
Q

Boundaries, nerves, and vessels in the posterior triangle

A

Sternocleidomastoid, middle 1/3 of clavicle, and trapezius.

Spinal accessory nerve, phrenic nerve, and brachial plexus.

Subclavian artery and vein.

151
Q

A 
Superior thyroid
Lingual
Facial
(greater)Occipital

Maxillary
Superficial temporal
152
Q

Where is the superior cervical sympathetic ganglion located?

A

High up in the neck a little lower than the skull. Almond shaped.

153
Q

3 muscles of the pharynx, innervations, and functions

A

Stylopharyngeal- CN 9. Lifts pharynx.

Salpingopharyngeal- CN 10. Opens the eustachian tube.

Palatopharyngeal- CN 10. Pulls palate down and pharynx up.

154
Q

Functions of the soft palate

A

Seal off oro and nasopharynx (prevents air out nose) and seal off oral cavity from oropharynx for circular breathing. Also keeps food and water out of nose and middle ear and allows you to play an instrument/blow your nose

155
Q

2 muscles that open the eustachian tube?

A

Salpingophayngeus(10) and tensor veli palatini (V3)

156
Q

A

Posterior cricoarytenoid innervated by the recurrent laryngeal nerve

157
Q

High note muscle?

A

Cricothyroid muscle innervated by external branch of superior laryngeal nerve

158
Q

What ossicle is attached to the tympanic membrane?

A

Malleus (other ossicles are incus and stapes)

159
Q

Pathway of tears?

A

Produced by lacrimal gland, drain to lacrimal caruncle, then to lacrimal punctum and lacrimal papilla, then flow down lacrimal canaliculi into lacrimal sac. Drain into the nasolacrimal duct.

160
Q

Origin of splenius capitis and cervicis?

Insertions?

A

Ligamentum nuchae, spinous process of C7-T3 (C7-T6 for cervicis).
