OMM Flashcards
1
Q
articular mechanoreceptors of synvial joints Type I
A
non-nociceptive mechanoreceptors outer layers of fibrous joint capsule control tension inhibit nociceptive tonic reflexogenic effect on motor neurons of neck, limb, jaw, and eye muscles
2
Q
articular mechanoreceptors of synvial joints Type II
A
non-nociceptive mechanoreceptors
deeper layers of fibrous joint capsule
joint tension
transitory inhibition of nociceptive
3
Q
articular mechanoreceptors of synvial joints Type III
A
non-nociceptive mechanoreceptors in ligaments and adjacent tendons inhibitory reflexogentic effects on motor neurons function similar to golgi tendon organs in sensing tension
4
Q
articular mechanoreceptors of synvial joints Type IV
A
nociceptive mechanoreceptors
- sensitive to noxious substance
- respiratory & cardiovascular reflexogenic effects
- depolarization occurs when constant pressure on joint capsule, disk narrowing, or compression or joint derangement
- pain generation
- tonic relexogenic effects: neck, limb, jaw, eye muscles
- within fibrous join capsule
5
Q
dermal & fascial mechanoreceptors
A
golgi type II
pacini and paciniform type II
ruffini type II
interstitial type III & IV
6
Q
- myotendinous junctions, aponeuroses, Ligaments of peripheral joints, joint capsules
- golgi tendon organ: muscular contraction
- strong stretch
- tonus decrease in related striated motor fibers
A
golgi type II
7
Q
- myotendinous junction, deep capsular, spinal ligaments, investing muscular tissues
- rapid pressure changes and vibrations
- proprioceptive
A
pacini and paciniform type II
8
Q
- ligaments of peripheral joints, dura, outer capsular, regular stretching
- pressure & tangential force
- inhibit sympathetic activity
A
ruffini type II
9
Q
- most abundant receptor type, everywhere, bones, highest density in peritoneum
- pressure changes (variety of thresholds)
- changes in vasodilation and plasma extravasation
A
interstitial type III & IV
