Q

What happens when there is a flattening of the diaphragm?

A

Decreases the volume displacement and pressure gradient leading to decreased lymphatic drainage, congestion, and decreased CO

Q

Look at the table for viscero-somatic reflexes

21
Q

What are the nerve organ bits that are located in the GI tract?

A

Pacinian corpuscles and free nerve endings

22
Q

Visceral pain is poorly localized. What is the supposed effects along the spine?

23
Q

What is the progression of pain sensation in the abdomen?

A

Visceral (poorly localized)

Somatic (well localized)

24
Q

What are the spinal levels that are affected with the upper GI?

25
Q

What are the spinal levels that are affected with the lower GI?

26
Q

Which side are paraspinal muscles tight on with abdominal pain?

A

Same side as the involved organ

27
Q

What happens when there is handling of the bowel?

A

Causes secondary viscero-visceral reflexes

28
Q

Increased sympathetic tone leads to what problems in the GI system?

A

Increased vascular tone, reducing flow to the tissues

29
Q

What is the effect of sympathetic overtone on the GI mucosa?

A

Increases its sensitivity to pH

30
Q

What happens to sympathetic overtone with the gallbladder?

31
Q

Thoracic splanchnic nerves go where?

A

Celiac ganglion

32
Q

Lumbar splanchnic afferents go where?

A

Inferior mesenteric ganglion

33
Q

What connects that first 2 cervical nerves?

34
Q

What does the left/anterior vagus innervate in the GI system?

A

Stomach and duodenum

35
Q

What does the right/posterior vagus innervate in the GI system?

A

Small intestines, right colon, and organs and glands up to the mid transverse colon

36
Q

True or false: everything innervated by the vagus are intimately bound together and are capable of readily transmitting reflexes

37
Q

What do S2-4 innervate in the GI tract?

A

Descending colon and rectum

38
Q

What happens when there is hyperactivity of both the symp and parasymps?

39
Q

What happens to nutrition with impaired lymphatic flow?

A

impaired d/t increased fibrosis

40
Q

What is the innervation of the left crus? Right?

A 
Left = L1-2
Right = L1-3
41
Q

What is the effect of symp overtone on the crus?

A

Increased tautness of the tissues, decreases lymphatic flow

42
Q

What are the attachment sites of the diaphragm?

A

costal cartilages of 7-12, xiphoid process

43
Q

Innominate and sacral dysfunctions may lead to what?

A

Torsions within the levator ani musculature, thus tethering the sigmoid colon and rectum

44
Q

Right shoulder pain can be suggestive of what?

A

gallbladder pain

45
Q

Why do you treat the OA with GI complaints?

A

Where vagus exits

46
Q

What type of motion should be used to increase parasympathetic tone?

47
Q

What does addressing the sacrum do for the GI?

A

S2-4 nerves

48
Q

What spinal levels do you want to look at in the ribs?

49
Q

What are the lymphatic treatments for the GI?

A

Myofascial release
Diaphragm
Pect traction
Lymph pump
