OSPE - HNS (30 decks)

Identify on a dry skull the cranial and facial bones and the pterion

On the osteological specimen of a typical vertebra identify the following structures: body, pedicle, lamina, transverse process, spinous process and articular surfaces

Identify the different foramina in the skull and the nerves and vessels that pass through them

Using the dry skull and osteological specimens of the atlas and axis, demonstrate the movements that occur at the atlanto-occipital and atlanto-axial joints

Demonstrate the surface landmarks of C7, T3, T7, L2 and L4 vertebra

Demonstrate the surface landmarks used for placement of epidural injections

Test the range of motion of the different regions of the vertebral column and describe the anatomical basis for your findings using osteological specimens

Locate the carotid pulse

Demonstrate the technique for palpation of the cervical lymph nodes

Locate the hyoid bone, thyroid and cricoid cartilages, lateral mass of the atlas and spinous process of C7

Demonstrate the boundaries of the anterior and posterior triangles of the neck and recall the contents of each
