Q

What is the dominant parasympathetic innervation to the lungs?

19
Q

What is the normal lymphatic return rate?

A

Entire serum in 24 hours

20
Q

Why is it important to address the OA in respiratory complaints?

A

-vagus and ganglia

21
Q

What is the common cause if increase sympathetic tones to the lungs? Why?

A

Rib dysfunctions since sympathetic ganglia lie in front of the ribs

22
Q

What happens to the ribs with chronic coughing?

A

Locked down SD

23
Q

Why do you not want to treat rib SDs with HV/LA for sympathetic overtone?

A

May increase sympathetic tone from quick motion

24
Q

At what degree of scoliosis is respiratory function compromised?

A

More than 50 degrees

25
Q

What are the bony attachments of the diaphragm? (4)

A

L1-L2 on the left
L1-L3 on the right
Lower 6 ribs
Xiphoid

26
Q

What are the two major muscles of the back that have attachments to the diaphragm?

27
Q

What is the role of the QL in breathing?

A

Locks down the 12th rib

28
Q

What are the two major muscles of the UE that play a role in respiration

A

Pecs

Lat dorsi

29
Q

What happens to the tissues with lung congestion?

A

Hardening of the tissues

30
Q

What spinal levels are affected with lung problems?

A

T1-T6 or T1-T12.

31
Q

RUL levels = ?

32
Q

RML levels = ?

33
Q

RLL levels = ?

34
Q

LUL levels = ?

35
Q

LLL levels = ?

36
Q

Palpatory findings of SDs d/t pneumonia will precede radiographic findings by how many hours

A

24-48 hours

37
Q

Name that disease: Inflammation of the pulmonary parenchyma by a microbial agent

38
Q

Name that disease: chronic inflammatory disease of the airways that causes spasms and edema leading to narrowing of the airways.

39
Q

Name that disease: Inflammation of the bronchi that causes acute onset of cough, sputum production, and ssx of a URI

A

Acute bronchitis

40
Q

Name that disease: recurrent cough with sputum production that persists for at least 3 months in at least 2 consecutive years

A

Chronic bronchitis

41
Q

When should the OA and AA be treated in patients with asthma? Why?

A

Only after all else has been completed. If done before, will heighten parasympathetic response and make them worse

42
Q

Besides the OA and AA, what other area should be addressed? Why?

A

T10-L1 to increase anti-inflammatory effects

43
Q

Why should the IT spread be utilized for respiratory issues?

A

Address UG diaphragm

44
Q

Why should the QL be treated for respiratory concerns?

A

Attached to rib 12
