Question 12

action of anterior and middle scalene

Answer 12

elevates first rib

Question 13

action of posterior scalene

Answer 13

elevates 2nd rib, lateral flexion of neck

Question 14

pectoralis minor originates

Answer 14

on the anterior superior surface of ribs 3,4,5

Question 15

serratus anterior inserts

Answer 15

on the superior lateral surface of ribs 2-8

Question 16

part of lat dorsi originates on which ribs

Answer 16

lower 4

Question 17

external intercostal orientation

Answer 17

hands in front pockets

Question 18

internal intercostals/ innermost intercostal orientation

Answer 18

hands in back pockets

Question 19

rib motion axis during bucket handle motion

Answer 19

anterior posterior

Question 20

rib motion axis during pump handle movement

Answer 20

transverse

Question 21

describe bucket handle movement

Answer 21

move superior/laterally
increases transverse diameter
occurs in ribs 1,2 8-10

Question 22

describe pump handle movement

Answer 22

moves superiorly and anteriorly
increases AP diameter
ribs 3-7

Question 23

respiratory motion at ribs 11,12

Answer 23

caliper/pincer
downward and posterior with inhalation
upward and superior with exhalation

Question 24

rib being held in a position of inhalation such taht motion toward inhalation is more free and motion toward exhalation is more restricted

Answer 24

inhalation dysfunction

Question 25

rib being held in a position of exhalation such that motion toward exhalation is more free and motion toward inhalation is restricted

Answer 25

exhalation dysfunction

Question 26

BITE = how to treat rib dysfunctional movement

Answer 26

Bottom Inspired
if a group of ribs is found to have inhalation dysfunction, the bottom of the group is the key rib
Top Expired
if a group of ribs is found to have exhalation dysfunction, the top of the group is the key rib
