MET pt2 Flashcards
what is flexion and extension limited in tx-s
because of attachement on sternum of ribs
primary and secondary motion of the tx-s
primary: rotation
secondary: side bend
true ribs vs floating
true= 1-7
float: 11-12
rib 1
- flattest shortest and broadest
has sharpest curve - has grooves for subclavian artery and cervical plexus
rib 2
- articulates with anubrosternal jnt
- 9 muscles attach to it
9 muscles attached to rib 2
- pec major
- serratus ant
- post scalene
- levatorcostae
- iliocostal cervicalis
- iliocostal dorsi
- serrates post sup
- int and ext intercostal
rib mechanic during breathing
- ribcage expands in AP and lateral direction
- pump-handle
- buckethandle motion
- ribs 11-12 = pince/caliper motion
organ and rib associations
t1-t4
sympathetic to head and neck, w/ t/-t6 to the heart and lungs
organ and rib associations
t5-t9
all upper abdominal viscera, stomach, duodenum, liver, gall bladder, pancreas and spleen
organ and rib associations
t10-t11
remainder of the small intestines, kidney, ureters, gonads and right colon
organ and rib associations
t12-l2
left colon and pelvic organs
what does skin drag detect
function of the sympathetic nervous system
are rib torsion more common with ers or frs
ers
inhalation dysfunction explanation
ribs move in inhalation
but stay in inhale dureing exhale
oreder of tx for tx-s
spine before rib
structural lesions/restriction before respiratory restriction
key ribs before group
check rib corrections
how many muscles attach c0-c1
15
what level is affected with the vagus nerve
c2
C0-C1
forward and backward bending
condyle mvt at c0-c1
left rotation of occiput on atlas = ant displacement of right occipital condyle and posterior displacement of left occipital condyle
c1-c2
atlas and axis
no disc
50% of rotation
c3-c7
other 50% of lex/ext and rot
SB and rot coupled
5 main somatic dysfucntion of cx-s
1- cervical segments in flex w/ coupled SB and rot to same side
2- cervical segments in ext w/ coupled SB and rot to same side
3- c1-c2 restriction in rotation
4- c0-c1: flexion with coupled SB and rot in opposite directions
5- c0-c1: ext w/ coupled SB and rot in opposite directions
cx-s tx order
begin in the lower cervical spine and move upward
exception: tx most restricited segment first in order to influence the system to the max (careful if most acute)
acute= indirect approach better
