Q

Stomach pain can present as pain over the sternum. This is an example of viscero-somatic pain. How can pain in the viscera cause pain on the outside of the body?

A

Nociceptors from the skin and from the viscera synapse in the same part of the dorsal horn or even on the same neuron in the spinal cord–the brain cannot differentiate the two

18
Q

Why do we pull away, yell and get hot when we hit our thumb with a hammer?

A

Pain stimulates the withdrawal reflex, the limbic area of the brain and causes an autonomic response.

19
Q

What is the patient contact point for an AS ilium?

A

Tuber Coxae

20
Q

What is allodynia?

A

A normally non-painful stimulus is perceived as painful

21
Q

Collagen in fascia is produced the _____.

A

Fibroblasts

22
Q

What is maladaptive pain?

A

Pain that persists after the injury is healed

23
Q

What is a listing?

A

A listing is a description of a manipulable lesion and includes the motion unit or bone, a reference point and a direction

24
Q

Manipulation of the sacral base affects primarily which joint?

A

Lumbosacral

25
Q

How does an intense bout of exercise affect the degradation of synthesis of collagen?

A

In the first 48 hours degradation will be greater than synthesis

26
Q

In what directions does the mandible need to move?

A

Rostral, caudal, left, right

27
Q

How does the fascia function in motor coordination?

A

It transmits mechanical force

28

A

Straight dorsal to ventral

29
Q

What are anatomy trains?

A

Myofascial lines of strain and tension

30
Q

Which nerves innervate the lumbosacral plexus?

A

Spinal nerves L4, L5, L6, L7, S1, S2, and S3

31
Q

The canine sacrum has fewer vertebrae than the equine sacrum. Why?

A

The equine sacrum is longer because the biceps femoris and the semitendinosus muscles attach to the sacrum in the horse.

32
Q

T/F: Pain stimulates the sympathetics.

34
Q

Fibroblasts can be active or resting. What makes the fibroblasts active?

A

Mechanical stress

35
Q

How is cartilage affected when the joint loses its normal range of motion?

A

It gets less nutrition due to decreased imbibition

36
Q

Like the rigid pieces in a tensegrity model the joints should ____ in the soft tissue.

A

float

37
Q

How can high gamma gain protect us (or our patients) from injury?

A

High gamma gain means our muscles will respond to a small amount of stretch.

38
