OMM Flashcards
psoas synd: what should be treated 1st?
lumbar or thoracolumbar spine
articular pillar: aka
lat mass
articular pillar: location
cervical vertebrae:
- bw sup & inf facets
- post to tranverse process
what is: OA? AA?
- OA: occipit on CI (atlas)
- AA: C1 motion on C2
how do you test OA? AA?
- OA: translate
- AA: flex –> rot
rule of three’s: refers to
thoracic spine: location of spinous process relative to TP
what makes a typical rib typical?
have all landmarks:
- tubercle
- head
- neck
- angle
- shaft
what are the atypical ribs?
“1’s” & “2’s”: rib 1, 2, 11, 12 (sometimes 10)
what ribs have bucket handle motion? pump handle?
rib 1-5: pump
rib 6-10: bucket
rib 6-9 attach to what thoracic vertebra?
T5-9
what muscles make up the erector spinae?
“SILO”:
- spinalis
- iliocostalis
- LOngissimus
differentiate: spina bifida occulta vs meningocele vs meningomyelocele
- occulta: no herniation
- meningocele: herniation of meninges
- meningomyelocele: meninges + nerve
psoas synd: ssx
- TP medial to ASIS
- L1/2 type II SD
- +pelvic shift test to contralat side
- sacral dysfx on oblique axis
- contralat piriformis spasm
what are the 2ndary muscles of respiration?
- scalene
- pect minor
- serr ant & post
- QL
- lat dorsi
what are the 1ary muscles of respiration?
- diaphragm
- intercostals
L4 nerve root exits from where?
intervertebral foramen bw L4 & 5
herniated disc bw L4 & 5 –> what nerve root will be compressed?
L5
what is: cauda equina synd
pressure on N roots of cauda equina (usu d/t large central herniation):
- saddle anesthesia
- decreased DTR
- decreased rectal sphincter tone
- loss of bowel, bladder ctrl
cauda equina synd: tx
surg emergency
psoas synd: organic causes
- appendicitis
- sigmoid colon dysfx
- ureteral calculi
- ureter dysfx
- prostate metastatic CA
- salpingitis
what is dextroscoliosis? levoscoliosis?
- dextroscoliosis: scoliosis to R –> curve is sidebent L
- levoscoliosis: L scoliosis
scoliosis: when is resp fx compromised? CV?
resp: Cobb angle >50
CV: >75
what divides the greater & lesser sciatic foramen?
sacrospinous lig
What are the physiologic axes of the sacrum/innominate? What sacral motions occur there?
1) sup transverse axis: resp & craniosacral motion
2) middle transverse axis: postural motion
3) inf transverse: innominate rotation
4) L & R oblique axes: dynamic motion
during craniosacral extension –> what happens to sacral base?
rot ant (nutates)
trigger pt: tx
- spray & stretch using vapocoolant spray
- injection w local anes
what is: Chapman’s pt
somatic manifestation of visceral dysfx (viscerosomatic reflex): smooth firm discrete 2-3mm nodule –> in deep fascia, periosteum of bone
L5 FRrSr –> what is the sacral dx?
oblique axis: R
seated flexion: L
sacrum: rot L
==> L on R backward sacral torsion
L5 NSlRr –> what is the sacral dx?
oblique axis: L
seated flexion: R
sacrum: rot L
==> L on L forward sacral torsion
sacral dx: R seated flexion, R sulcus, L ILA
L on L forward sacral torsion
sacral dx: L seated flexion, L sulcus, R ILA
R on R forward sacral torsion
sacral dx: R seated flexion, L sulcus, R ILA
R on L backward sacral torsion
sacral dx: L seated flexion, R sulcus, L ILA
L on R backward sacral torsion
what is: sacral rotation on an oblique axis
similar to sacral torsion but L5 is rotated to same side as sacrum
sacral dx: neg seated flexion, R & L sulcus, R & L ILA
bilat sacral flexion
what sacral dysfx is common post-parturm?

what is: sacral shear
unilat sacral flexion/extension
sacral dx: L seated flexion, L sulcus, L ILA
L unilat sacral flex
sacral dx: R seated flexion, R sulcus, R ILA
R unilat sacral flex
sacral dx: L seated flexion, R sulcus, R ILA
