OMM Flashcards
Scoliosis
- what is it
- levo
- dextro
- tx
- lateral deviation of the spine when viewed from behind
- apex of curve to left and concavity to right
- apex of curve to right and concavity to left
- less than 30 degrees, watch, 30-40 degrees brace, greater than 40 operate
Barriers
- physiologic
- anatomic
- point to which pt can actively move
- point to which pt can passively move
Fryettes Principle
- I: segments, rotation and side bending, position of spine
- II: segments, rotation and side bending, position of spine
- exception
- mulitple, opposite, neutrial
- single, same side, flexion/extension
- cervical vert
Cervical vertebrae movement
- OA
- AA
- 1-7
- C2-4 vs 5-7
- uncoupled
- only rotation
- coupled
- 2-4 for rotation and 5-7 sidebending
Sympathetics
- Head and neck
- Heart
- Lungs
- GI
- T1-T4
- T1- T5
- T2-T7
- T5-L2; prox to lig of treitx T5-9, in between LOT and splenic flex is T9-12, distal to splenic flex T12-L2
Sequence of TX
- Thoracic, ribs, cervical
- extremities
- treat spine before ribs and cervical dysfxns
- treat axial skeleton first then work prox to distal
Location of brachial plexus
- between ant and middle scalenes
Torticollis
- muscle involved and usual fxn
- SCM
- sidebend to same side, rotates to opp side, flexes; bilateral contraction flexes the neck
Rule of 3
- T1-3
- T4-6
- T7-9
- T10
- T11
- T12
- same level
- TP half segment above SP
- TP whole segment above SP
- TP whole segment above SP
- TP half segment above SP
- TP at same level of SP
Anatomic Landmarks
- sternal nocth
- sternal angle
- nipple
- inferior angle of scapula
- umbilicus
- termination of spinal cord
- illiac crest sorresponds w/
- PSIS correspons w.
- T2
- rib 2
- T4 dermatome
- T7
- T 10 dermatome
- L2
- L4
- S2
Muscles of respiration
- primary
- secondary
- diaphragm and intercostals
- scalenes, pec minor, serratus ant
Ribs
- typical
- atypical
- true
- false
- floating
- pump handle
- bucket handle
- caliper
- 3-10
- 1,2,11,12
- 1-7
- 8-10
- 11-12
- 1-5
- 6-10
- 11-12
Rib dysfunction
- Inhalation dysfunction
- Exhalation dysfunction
- Key rib
- ribs are restricted in exhalation
- ribs are restricted in inhalation
- BITE
Disk herniation
- most often location
- direction
- sequalae
- sxs
- DX
- TX
- between L4-5
- posterior/lat
- pressure on nerve root of vert below
- pain at that vert and radiate down leg, sharp burning pain
- MRI
- No direct techniques
Spondylolysis
- what is it
- causes
Spondylolosthesis
- what is it
- sxs
- defect in part interarticularis w/o ant displacement of vert body
- extension injury
- one vert body slips in relation to the one below
- back pain that radiates posteriorly to or below the knee worse with standing
- flexion exercises and observation, avoid activities that aggravate condition
Cauda equina syndrome
- what is it
- sxs
- tx
- large central disc herniation compressing the sacral nerve roots
- similar to herniated disc but also include bowel and bladder dysfxn, decreased rectal tone
- emergent surgical decompression, always order STAT MRI, no OMT
Nerve Root Dysfxn
- L4
- L5
- S1
- lat thigh to medial calf, no patellar reflex
- lateral thigh and calf, no dorsiflexion
- posterior thigh and calf, no plantar flexion or achilles reflex
Standing vs seated flexion test
- what do they test
- Standing is a illial sacral dysfxn
- Seated is a sacral illial dysfxn, because inominates are locked when sitting
Sacral dx
- seated flexion
- L5
- post ILA and deep sulcus
- spring/sphinx
- axis is on opp side of the positive side
- rotated opp for torsion
- should be opp in torsion and if on same side it is unilateral
- if + it means it is extended
sacral torsion
- side bending
- rotation
- forward
- backward
- axis is on same side
- sacrum rotated to opp direction
- physiologic
- non-physiologic
Sacral shear (unilateral sacral flexion or extension)
- deep sacral sulcus and post ILA
- seated flexion test
- L5
Bilateral Sacral flexion or extension
- flexion: superior sulci deep; lumbar curve; ILA shallow; spring/sphinx; seated flexion
- extension: superior sulci deep; lumbar curve; ILA shallow; spring/sphinx; seated flexion
- on same side
- on same side
- rotated opp deep sacral sulcus
- right and left sup sulci deep, increased lumbar curve, ILAs shallow bilaterally; negative spring and sphinx; negative seated flexion
- right and lef sup sulci shallow; decreased lumbar curve; ILA deep bilaterally; positive sping/sphinx; negative seated flexionb
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
- what is it
- sxs
- compression of subclavian a, v and brachial plexus
- neck pain radiating to arm
Erb-Duchenne
- what is it
- presentation
- upper arm paralysis bc of injury to C5 and C6
- waiters tip
craniosacral
- flexion
- exension
- counternutation (base is post), hands inferior and wider
- nuation (base is ant), hands superior and narrow
Osteo tx: direct vs indirect and active vs passive
- Myo release
- counterstrain
- FPR
- ME
- HVLA
- Lymph
- Cranial
- both, both
- indirect, passive
- indirect, passive
- direct, active
- direct, passive
- direct, passive
