Q 
characteristic motions of the CRI 
rate: 
rhythm: 
amplitude: 
strength: 
direction:
A

rate is 10-14 bpm
rhythm should be regular, tide of the ocean
amplitude - significant SD may diminish amplitude
strength - significant SD and vitality of the pt may greatly impact strength
direction - longitudinal and symmetric, SD causes asymmetry

Q

ears close to ehad
mastoid portions are posteromedial
mastoid tips are anterolateral
elevated condylosquama

A

extension

17
Q

flexion is paired with nutation/counternutaiton

A

counternutation

18
Q

extension is paired with nutation/counternutation

A

nutation

19
Q

nutation- the base moves ______ and the apex moves _____

A

base moves posteriorly

apex moves anteriorly

20
Q

still point

A

CRI dampens until you cannot feel it while holdning a neutral position by placing the SBS in the midpoint of the available ROM

21
Q

DO that developed OCMM

A

william garner sutherland, 1900 graduate of kirksville

22
Q

five components of PRM

A

inherent mobility of the brain and spinal cord
fluctations in the CSF
the mobility of the intracranial and intraspinal membranes
articulatory mobility of the cranial bones
involuntary mobility of the sacrum between the ilia

23
Q

cranial motion d/t changes in blood flow velocity and is measurable by laser doppler flowmetry

A

traube-hering waves

24
Q

functional name given to the straight sinus as the origin of the 3 sickle-shaped agents of the falx cerebri and the tentorium cerebelli

A

sutherland fulcrum

25
Q

meninges and the cord constitute a link between the cranium and the sacrum

A

reciprocal tension membrane

26
Q

refers to its importance in connexcting the articular mechanisms of the cranium with the sacrum to coordinate action

A

core link

27
Q

what creates the RTM

A

the temtorium and falx cerebri and cerebellum
attach to the bones of the vault and base and hold them under constant tension
allows but limits motion

28
Q

where does the RTM attach to the vault

A

anterior/superior pole - crista galli
anterior/inferior pole - clinoid processes of sphenoid
lateral pole- mastoid angles of parietals and petrous ridges of temporal bone
posterior pole - internal occipital protrubernece and transverse ridges

29
Q

SBS stands for

A

sphenobasilar spymphysis

where the basisphenoid and basiocciput joint to form a synchondrosis

30
Q

where does the dura attach

A

foramen magnum

posterior body and disk of S2 in spinal canal

31
Q

axes of motion of the sacru m

A

ST respiratory axis - (most anterior) - PRM assocaited at S2
MT postural axis - middle - anterior aspect of S2
IT pelvic/ilial axis - S3 - movement of ilia on sacrum

32
Q

SBS extension is paired with what motion of the sacrum

A

nutation
base moves anterior
apex moves posterior

33
Q

SBS flexion is paired with what motion of the sacrum

A

counternutation
base moves posterior
apex moves anterior

34
Q

what team of researchers demonstrated cranial motion in cats
observed spontanteous motion at pareital bones

A

adams, heisey, smith and briner

35
Q

pterion

A

frontal, parietal, temporal, and sphenoid bones join here

36
Q

asterion

A

pareital, occipital, temporal

37
Q

bregma

A

parietal bones and frontal bones

38
Q

lambda

A

parietal bones and occiput
