Question 1

5 components of primary respiratory mechanism:

Answer 1

1. inherent motility
2. CSF fluctuation
3. reciprocal tension shifting w/in the dura matter system
4. cranial motion (intra and inter bone)
5. SI mobility

Question 2

all subluxations are compensations for…:

Answer 2

stresses of life

Question 3

Besides stress testing, the only other way to determine the side of category 2 dysfunction is?

Answer 3

side of the hypermobile 1st rib

Question 4

cat 1 blocking:

Answer 4

• prone
• 6 mins
• mobilizes SI boots (non weight bearing part)
• breathing provides the motive force
• pt is passive during blocking
• blocks are directly diagonal at trochanter and ASIS

Question 5

Cat 1 stress test

Answer 5

deep inhalation or exhalation + test the arm

Question 6

Cat 1 subluxations occur d/t:

Answer 6

• breathing

- primary and secondary breathing and its relationship to central neuro function

Question 7

Cat 2 blocking:

Answer 7

• removes sagittal plane iliac rotation (PI and AS) but NOT stressing SI Ligs
• High block horizontal, at iliac crest on short leg side
• diagonal block pointing up, at trochanter

Question 8

Cat 2 stress test:

Answer 8

jump on one leg at a time flat footed + test the arm

Question 9

cat 2 subluxations occur d/t?

Answer 9

• gravity

- ability to function normally on planet earth and its inherent gravity

Question 10

cat 3 stress test:

Answer 10

-Valsalvas or bend over +test the arm

Question 11

cat 3 subluxations occur d/t:

Answer 11

• breathing + gravity

- Loss of normal disc structure, w/ resulting loss of normal function

Question 12

Category 1:

Answer 12

• craniosacral dural CNS
• if sacrum is fixated= can’t pump CSF
• CSF/CNS dysfunction

Question 13

almost all chiropractic analytical procedures are based on the idea of:

Answer 13

bad in bad out

Question 14

stress tests are based on changes in:

Answer 14

mechanoreception

Question 15

how many synapses does the sensory input from proprioceptors need to pass through to get to the motor cortex?

Answer 15

2

Question 16

Category III indicates:

Answer 16

structural degeneration

Question 17

on the category I patient, it is most common to suspect a subluxation of which level?

Answer 17

sacrum

Question 18

the more movable first rib is due to over activity of:

Answer 18

scalenes

Question 19

the one area of the broadest attachment of the dura to the skeleton is:

Answer 19

cranium

Question 20

the more anterior part of the sacro iliac joint is designed for:

Answer 20

motion of the S/I joint

Question 21

the first patented invention by DeJarnette had to do with:

Answer 21

color

Question 22

which of these is the only pathagnomonic SOT test?

Answer 22

arm fossa

Question 23

disinhibition of the posterior postural muscles refers to which SOT test?

Answer 23

heel tension

Question 24

if the cervical compaction test results in it being easier to life the legs during cervical compaction, what should you conclude?

Answer 24

cervical subluxation

Question 25

the full spine analysis part of SOT is known as:

Answer 25

the category system

Question 26

the most numerous mechanoreceptors are:

Answer 26

spinal mechanoreceptors

Question 27

which of these chiropractic analysis procedures presumes the validity of hte foundation principle the most (that hte pelvis should be level and stable)?

Answer 27

leg checks or distortion analysis

Question 28

the value of the category system is:

Answer 28

it provides organization and a treatment plan

Question 29

two tests to use to determine the existence of a sacral subluxation are

Answer 29

heel tension and exhalation stress test

Question 30

the arm fossa test may show weakness on patients with:

Answer 30

sacro iliac foudational mechanical subluxation

Question 31

the most common subluxation within the sacro iliac joint involves:

Answer 31

a battle with gravity or a battle with breathing

Question 32

a sacroiliac interosseous weight-bearing ligaments are found anatomically:

Answer 32

posterior and superior to the synovial boot
