Pelvic Autonomic Flashcards
Autonomic Nervous System, visceral afferent or efferent
efferent
where do preganglionic cell bodies reside for sympathetic
T1-L2
sympathetic postganglionic cell bodies
sympathetic chain and colateral ganglia/prevertebral ganglia
parasympathetic preganglionic cell bodies
cranial nerve nuclei/sacral S2-S4
brainstem
postsynaptic parasympathetic cell bodyies
in the walls of the organs they innervate
white or gray ramus communicans is preganglionic
white ramus communcans is preganglionic
gray ramus communican is postganglionic sympathetic
where is dorsal root ganglia located
in vertebral canal
where is the chain ganglia located
outside the vertebral canal
once presynaptic fiber enters the chain, which nerves pass through without synapsing
splanchnic nerves
what do they sacral splanchnic nerves serve
pelvic viscera
vertebral level of greater splanchnic nerves, and what do they serve
T5-T9
celiac ganglion
vertebral level of lesser splanchnic nerves, and what do they serve
T10-T11
superior mesenteric
vertebral level of least splanchnic nerves, and where are they going
T12
aorticorenal
vertebral level of lumbar splanchnic nerves, and where are they going
L1-L2
IMA
parasympathetic NS, 1 of the 4 cranial nerves, __for entire body all the way down to mid/hind gut transition
vagus
