muscles of respiration Flashcards
external intercostal runs
downwrad forward
external intercostal o
inferior border or rib
external intercostal i
superior border or rib below it
external intercostal nerve
intercostal nerve
external intercvostal action
increases teh anteroposterior and transverse diameter of thorax anmd elevation of ribs
internal intercostal action
depress the ribs during expiration
innermost intercostal o and i
adjacent rib/ribs
action of innermost intercostal
assist the xternal and internal intercostals
diaphragm desfriotiin
thin muscular and tendinous septum
right dome upper border of 5th rib
left dome lower border of 5th rib
central tendon xiphsternal joint
diaphragm o
costal lower six cc and ribs
sternal posterior surface of xiphoid process
vertebral crura and arcuate ligaments
diaphragm i
central tendon
right crus is
bodies the first three lumbar vertebra and its interveretebral discs
left crus is
bodies teh first two lumbar vertebra and its intervertebral discs
medial arcuate ligament connects the
body of the second lumbar veretebra to the tip of the transverse process of the first lumbar veretbera
lateral arcuate ligament connects the
tip of the transverrse process of the first lumbar veretebra to the lower border of the 12th rib
the arcuate ligaments connect what two thiungs
the crura to the diaphgram
what are the arcuate ligaments
medial, median ,lateral
diaphram nerve supply
motor: phrenic nerve
sensory
central surface: phrenic nerve
peripheral surface: lower six intercostal nerves
action of diaphragm
increases vertical diameter of the thorax
openings of teh diaphragm
