Pick correct answer from slashed phr

A

Parasympathetic
Glossopharyngeal

35
Q

36
Q

37
Q

Which saliva gland lies over the posterior part of mandible

A

Parotid

38
Q

Which duct does saliva exit through into the mouth

A

Parotid

39
Q

Name the smallest saliva gland

A

Floor of mouth

43
Q

What could happen is the recurrent laryngeal nerve is damaged

A

In transit muscles of ipsilateral side don’t function and vocal cords on affected side cannot move

44
Q

What could be a sign of laryngeal cancer

A

Voice hoarseness

45
Q

Damage or disease of parotid gland risks damage i which nerve

A

Facial

46
Q

Which saliva gland does mumps present on

A

Parotid

47
Q

Explain why horseless of voice could indicate lung cancer

A

-Left Recurrent laryngeal nerve runs close the lungs and innervates all intrinsic muscle left side except Cricothyroid
-if intrinsic muscle in left are weak of Paul used the left vocal fold cannot move which effects voice

48
Q

A patient develops weakness in R side face after surgery if right parotid, what happened

A

-Injured facial nerve since it runs close to parotid
-facial has 5 branches as it travels through parotid and individual injure results in facial weakness/ parylsis on ipsilateral side

49
Q

After an endotracheal tube is passed through vocal cords bow can an anesthetiser be sure that the tip of the tube is in the trachea

A

-this tube is passed into trachea for ventilation
-a laryngoscope is used to visualise the vocal cords and the tube passing through them
-correct placement is confirmed CO2 (expired air) on machine and an auscultation of both lungs to make sure the tube is not in bronchi
