Head/trunk MMT And Innervations Flashcards
Capital extension innervation
Suboccipital N
Greater occipital N
C1-T1
Capital extension position/resistance
Prone w head over edge of table
Resistance @ occiput toward floor
Below fair position for capital extension
Supine - head weight supported to reduce friction
Cervical extension innervation
C1-8
Cervical ext position/resistance
Prone w head over edge of table
Pt extends head while looking at floor
Resistance applied over parieto-occipital area toward floor
Below fair cervical extension
Supine - pushes into surface
Cervical extension palp
Distal occiput at level of cervical vertebrae
Combined extension position/resistance
Prone w head over edge of table, pt extends head and looks at ceiling
Below fair for combined extension
Partial range
Combined extension palp
Base of occiput/cervical region
Capital flexion innervation
C1-3
Capital flexion position/resistance
Supine head supported by table
Pt tucks chin
Resistance @ under chin by cupping mandible in, up and back
Cervical flexion innervation
C2-8, CN XI
Cervical flexion position/resistance
Supine, pt lifts head off table with eyes on ceiling
Resistance over forehead w two fingers toward table
Cervical flexion below fair
Supine, roll head side to side (SCM)
Cerv flexion palp
SCM
