OPP Exam 2 Flashcards
Where do ribs articulate? (general)
Anteriorly with sternum, posteriorly with vertebral column
What are the functions of the thoracic cage?
nRespiration<br></br>nProtection of vital organs<br></br>nPump for venous and lymphatic return<br></br>nSupport structure for the upper extremities
“What is the rule of 3’s of the spinous processes?”
“1-3: SP of each is about the same horizontal plane as the TP of each vertebra<br></br><br></br>4-6: SP project slightly downward; the tip of the SP lies in a plane halfway between that vertebra’s TP and the TP of the vertebra below it<br></br><br></br>7-9: SP project moderately downward; the tip of the SP is in a plane with the TP of the vertebra below it<br></br><br></br>10-12: have SP that project from a position similar to T9 and rapidly regress until the orientation of the SP of T12 is similar to that of T1.”
Which part of the vertebral column will have limited motion?
Upper thoracic vertebrae: limited in motion due to anterior attachment of the ribs (unlike floating ribs which allow more motion)
What are the true ribs, and where do they attach?
True ribs: 1-7<br></br>Attach directly to the sternum via costochondral cartilage<br></br><br></br>have catilaginous attachment to sternum!!
What are the false ribs and where do they attach?
False ribs: 8-12<br></br><br></br>Ribs 8-10 attach via a synchondroses to the costochondral cartilage of rib 7
What are the floating ribs?
Floating (subclass false): 11-12<br></br><br></br>Do not attach to the sternum at all

List a clinical way that the brachial plexus may become impinged
patient with respiratory problems that uses anterior/middle scalene as accessory respiratory muscle: muscles can hypertrophy and compress brachial plexus

What is the motion at ribs 1-7 costotransverse joints?
rotates
What is the motion at ribs 8-10 costotransverse joints?
glides
- motion predominantly in sagittal plane
- best palpated at mid-clavicular line
- axis of motion is costovertebral-costotransverse line
inhalation - anterior rib moves cephalad (superiorly), posterior rib moves caudad (inferiorly)
exhalation - opposite of inhalation
- ribs move laterally and increase transverse diameter with inhalation
- motion predominantly in coronal plane
- best palpated at mid-axillary line
- axis of motion is costovertebral-costosternal line
rib shaft is the handle of the bucket
rib shaft lifts during inhalation, falls with exhalation
ribs externally rotate with inhalation
motion predominantly in transverse plane
best palpated 3-5 cm lateral to transverse processes
axis of motion is vertical line
external intercostals
interchondral internal intercostals
anterior-middle scalene
posterior scalene
serratus anterior (inferior fibers)
levatores costarum

3. transversus thoracis
BITE: bottom inhalation, top exhalation
elevates with inspiration (ease)
""stuck in"" inhalation
exhalation restriction - won't move inferior with expiration
BITE
moves inferiorly with expiration (ease)
""stuck in"" exhalation
inhalation restriction
won't move superior with inspiration
can use to monitor progress"
- physician at side of table
- hands under patient with finger pads ""hooking"" the rib angles
- exert a ventral and lateral force perpendicular to the paraspinal muscles
- use the forearm as a fulcrum - downward pressure of the forearm = ventral force through the hands
- may hold and wait for a release or ...
- move up and down the thoracic spine in a gentle, rhythmic, kneading fashion
- reassess tissue tension
Transverse
Vertical
- side bending! (around an AP axis)
- flexion and extension (around a transverse axis)
- rotation occurs (around vertical axis)
- weight bearing
- shock absorbing
- protection of the spinal cord
- posterior: column contains the rest; the TPs and SPs
- protects spinal cord
- almost non-weight bearing the upright position
- muscular attachments
- osteology (shape of vertebrae and facets)
- IV discs
- disease causing structural changes
- extension is anterior separation
- turning the anterior aspect of the body to the left respectively
- Harrison Fryette presented a paper
- described vertebral motions
- developed principles to follow
example:
neutral
sideband right, rotate left
SPs move right
- because of the extreme lordosis, convergence of the facets
- a lot of times will side bend and rotate to the same side (not always)
- sidebending induced over one segment
- rotation occurs in the same direction of the sidebending
- a normal movement of the spine
ex:
extreme F/E
two vertebral segments
notice the top one is sideband right and rotated right
the rest of the spine is sideband right and rotated opposite (left)
T4 FSrRr
- occur suddenly
- usually the patient is in an extreme position and tries to move in another plane of motion
- palpation is important in diagnosis
- most important is the fact that it follows the type II mechanics
- can have stacked multiple type II SD
- this will modify the movement in other planes of motion
- ex: cervical
treatment: it allows you to be specific while treating joint restrictions in all planes and axes
ex. named for the directions in which the vertebra or other joint can move most easily
(IMP!)
exit with somatic motor axons via IV foramina; travel with somatic axons for much of their course

2. thoracic inlet/outlet
3. respiratory diaphragm
4. pelvic diaphragm
5. plantar fascia/arches of feet

- A/P lower extremity fascia
2. lymphatic flow back into circulation
- diaphragm contraction downward
- decrease pressure, so volume increases
- air in
EXHALATION
- diaphragm relaxes upward
- increase pressure
- so volume decreases
- air out
if diaphragm is flattened or spastic, trouble with inhalation
- drainage of pleural sacs and lung tissues is to the pre-tracheal nodes and then to the right lymphatic duct
- assists in fighting infection (tissue immunity)
- prevents tissue congestion
