What can the lumbar do best and worst?

A

Best at flex and extend, not so good at rotation

35

what cervical part has most rotation?

A

the first one and skull

36
Q

does C1 do lateral bending?

A

nope

37
Q

What does better flexion and extension?

A

Lumbar does better flexion while cervical does more extension

38
Q

what has the best lateral flexion?

A

cervical can do the most,

39
Q

what section has best and worst rotation?

A

lumbar has worst rotation wile cervical and thorasic is almost equal

40
Q

where do the concyles of the occiput face?

A

laterally and inferiorly so they can sit in C1 articular facet

41
Q

Where to the atlas C1 facets face?

A

medially and superiouly so they fit the condyles of occiput

42
Q

what does the fascet/condyle joint allow?

A

rocking

43
Q

In which direction does the occipit glide?

A

Occiput glides posteriorly to flex 10 degress

44
Q

In which direction does occiput roll?

A

occiput rolls anteriorly to extend. 25 degrees

45
Q

Where is the greates range of motion?

A

CO and C1 (atlas)

46
Q

what is gliding and rolling during occiput C1 flexion?

A

Occiput rolls on side of flexion and glides on opposite side

47
Q

what limits CO-C1 rotation?

A

alar ligament 5 degrees each side.

48
Q

where does gliding and rolling happen during rotation?

A

glide posteriorly on side of rotaion and anteriorly on side opposites

49
Q

what is the atlas axis joint around odointoid process called?

A

atlas odontoid joint

50
Q

what type of joint is the atlas odontoid joint?

A

synovial

51
Q

what is the ligament that ties odontoid process in?

A

transverse ligament

52
Q

what is the cervical coupling pattern?

A

as you laterally bend right the cervicals compress on the right side and twist to the right

53
Q

where is the alar ligament?

A

between occiput and odontoid.

54
Q

where is the transverse ligament?

A

it goes around posterior aspect of odontoid.

55
Q

what direction does articular surfaces of CI glide on C2 during flexion?

A

they glide posteriorly a little pit. So when head goes forward, it slides back.

56
Q

what direction does C1 articular surface glide on C2 during extension

A

when head goes back, c-1 glides foreward. So its opposite.

57
Q

what direction does C1 glide during lateral flexion?

A

C1 glides (translates) on C2 in the direction of lat flexion O rolls on side of flex and glides on opposite. Picture C1 squishing out from between O and C2 toward direction of lateral flexion.

58
Q

what accounts for more than half of cervical rotation?

A

C-1 / C-2 rotation around the odontoid process

59
Q

how does C1 glide during rotation on C2?

A

just like you would imagine, it glides back on the side its turning to and forward on the side its coming from, same as O, C1, but that is limited to 5 degrees by alar ligament.

60
Q

how far can C1 rotatie on each side?

A

25 degrees of cervical rotation is C1 on C2, but if you add the rest of the cervicals, the rotation is 40 degrees total to each side.

61
Q

flexion and extension of c1 and c2 is what type of kinematic movement?

A

mostly translation

62
Q

during flexion, what happens to the disk between CI and C2

A

it compresses anteriorly and distracts posteriorly with facets gliding apart.

63
Q

during extension, what happens to disk

A

opposite, just like you would expect but the facets approximate and there is compression at inferior margins.

64
Q

what goes through the transverse foramen?

A

vertebral artery

65
Q

what angle are the articular fascets for C3 to C7?

A

the facets are at 45 degrees with a transverse plane and parallel in frontal plane

66
Q

what is the joint between the vertebral body of C3 to C7 called?

A

joint of luschka

67
Q

when do the joints of luschka form?

A

they form at age 6-9 and finnish forming at age 18.

68
Q

what movement do the joints of luschka limit?

A

lateral flexion is limited to a few degrees

69
Q

what serves as guide to couple lateral flexion with rotation?

A

the joints of luschka help with coupled motion

70
Q

what is the curve of the cervical spine?

A

lordotic curve of 20 to 50 degrees from C1 to C7

71
Q

what determines lordotic curve?

A

facet and disk planes as they develop in response to upright posture.

72
Q

what is the disk height to body ratio?

A

2:5. which allows for greater range of motion in cervicals.

73
Q

what % of cervical curve height is from cervical disks?

A

25% of the lordotic curve height is from the disc thickness.

74
Q

which side of cervical disk is higher?

A

anterior side is higher contributing to a curve.

75
Q

where is the nucleus pulposus located?

A

slightly posterior to center.

76
Q

primary cervical motions?

A

flexion and extention it does best.

77
Q

how far can each cervical segment move?

A

it can flex 15 degrees per segment where the mid cervicals have greatest range at 20 degrees.

78
Q

what movments are combined to do cervical flex and extend?

A

movment is a combo of segmental tipping and gliding, so saggital rotation and translation.

79
Q

when flexing the cervical C3 to C7, what happens?

A

anterior joint compression etc like would expect, fascets glide apart, one move up on fascet causeing joint gap.

80
Q

How is extension of C3 to C7 different.

A

opposite disk movements and the fascets approximate instead of glide apart, and then there is comression at inferior margins of fascets.

81
Q

averace lateral flexion for each cervical segment?

A

7-8 degrees decreasing as you move down cervicals.

82
Q

what movement is lateral flexion of cervical coupled with?

A

same side axial rotation, think of and airplane turning.

83
Q

during lateral flexion what happens to facets?

A

Compress and move medial on side flexing toward, Move a part and laterally on side opposite of flexion.
