OPP 2 Exam #3 Flashcards
Tight piriformis muscle would lead to reduced hip
internal rotation
Sympathetic innervation to the Head and Neck:
T1-T4
Upper cervical area and sacrum are connected by
dural connections
AA (C1 on C2) accounts for 50% of
the cervical spine’s rotational motion
OA (C0 on C1) accounts for 50% of the
cervical spine’s flexion/extension motion
Spurling test assesses for
neural foraminal narrowing
Underburg/Wallenburg tests for patency in the
-position
vertebral arteries
If you extend the neck and rotate left/side-bend left you are checking the patency of right vertebral artery
If you extend the neck and rotate right/side-bend right you are checking the patency of the left vertebral artery
Diagnosed by T.A.R.T.
T: Tissue Texture Changes
A: Asymmetry
R: Restriction of motion
T: Tenderness
Fryette Law 1
- group of vertebra
- Side-bending before rotation
Fryette Law 2
- single vertebra
- Rotation before side-bending
Orientation of Superior Facets (cervical, thoracic, lumbar)
BUM
BUL
BM
Orientation of Inferior Facets (cervical, thoracic, lumbar)
AIL
AIM
AL
Cholecystitis segment
T5-T9 rotating right
Gastritis segment
T5-T9 rotating left
Sympathetic levels
Heart: T1 – T5 Lungs: T1 – T6 (T2-T7) Stomach: T5 – T9 Gallbladder: T5 – T9 Upper Ureters: T10 – T11 Lower Ureters: T12 – L1
Parasympathetic levels
Heart: OA, C1, C2 (Vagus) Lungs: OA, C1, C2 (Vagus) Stomach: OA, C1, C2 (Vagus) Gallbladder: OA, C1, C2 (Vagus) Upper Ureters: OA, C1, C2 (Vagus) Lower Ureters: S2 – S4
- vagus till splenic flexure
- S2-S4 rest plus reproductive organs, and external genitalia
Sympathetic Innervation
Greater Splanchnic Nerve (T5-9)
- Synapses at the Celiac Ganglion
- Stomach, Liver, Gall Bladder, Pancreas, Parts of Duodenum
- Lesser Splanchnic Nerve (T10-11)*
- Synapses at the Superior Mesenteric Ganglion
- Small Intestines and Right Colon (appendix is found here)
Least Splanchnic Nerve (T12) and Lumbar Splanchnic Nerve (L1-2)
- Synapses at the Inferior Mesenteric Ganglia
- Innervates the Left Colon and Pelvic Organs
sympathetic innervation to the appendix
Lesser Splanchnic Nerve (T10-11)
Synapses at the Superior Mesenteric Ganglion
OA
AA
C2-C7
-motion
OA: type I
AA: rotation
C2-C7: type II
-Cervical spine follows Fryette’s III
Oculomotor nerve (CN III) Glossopharyngeal (CN IX) Facial Nerve (CN VII)
-ganglion
-Oculomotor nerve (CN III)
Ciliary Ganglion
-Glossopharyngeal (CN IX)
Otic ganglion
-Facial Nerve (CN VII)
Pterygopalatine Ganglion
Submandibular Ganglion
Jugular Foramen
- formed by
- CN that exit
Formed by Temporal Bone and Occiput
- formed by Temporal Bone and Occiput forming the occipitomastoid suture
- CN that exit CN IX, X, and XI
So dysfunction affecting the vagus nerve could come from
occipitomastoid suture compression
-CN X is involved with vomiting
Sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) refers pain
lateral to and behind the eye
Splenius Capitus muscle refers pain to
vertex of the head
