Q

Anterior Longitudinal Ligament (ALL)

Q

Posterior Longitudinal Ligament (PLL)

A

runs along the posterior portion of vertebral bodies with the lamina, prevents hyperflexion (shortens with extension, lengthens with flexion), not as extensive as ALL which is why posterior disc herniations are more common than ant

A

rectus abdominis, external obliques, internal obliques, transverse abdominals

Q

Rectus abdominis (orientation, attachments, action)

A

straight sup/inf orientation, from costals 5-7 & zyphoid process to pubic symphysis, R/Lsides separated by linea alba, also has 3/4 tendinous inscriptions which help bind the muscle down& generate more tension, Acts as spinal flexor and lateral flexor, posterior pelvic tilt when stabilizing upper abs

28
Q

External Obliques (orientation, attachments, actions)

A

“hand in pocket orientation”, from pubic bone, linea alba & ant iliac crest to inferior surface od inferior 8 ribs,
Act: flex laterally, rotates contralaterally when stabilize pelvis, ipsilateral rotation when stabilize trunk & rotate pelvis, good stabilizers

29
Q

Internal Obliques (orientation, attachments, actions)

A

Perpendicular to External Obliques, from lat 2/3 of inguinal ligament, iliac crest, lumbo-dorsal fascia, and lower 3 ribs to linea alba,
Act as flexor, lateral flexion, ipsilateral trunk rotation when pelvis stabilized, contralateral when trunk stabilized

30
Q

Transverse Abndominis (orientation, attachments, action)

A

oriented transversely, from thoracolumbar fascia, iliac crest, ribs 7-12, lateral 1/3 inguinal ligament to linea alba Act: pulls umbilicus in, “corset”, stabilization, coughing, forced expiration

31
Q

Spinal extensors (erector spinae)

A

extension, lateral flexsion, and ipsilateral rotation, attach central-inferior to superolaterally, stabilizers, anti-gravity
Spinalis: most central, Capitis (AO), cervicis, thoracic
Longissimus: in between, capitis (AO), cervicis, thoracis
Iliocostalis: most lateral, (cervicis, thoracic, lumborum

32
Q

Deep Spinal Extensors (Transversospinalis)

A

deep so more stabilizers than anything, attached inferolaterally and superocentrally, contralateral rotation, extension, and lateral flexion
Semispinalis: Capitis (AO), cervicis, thoracis trans>spinous process (sup)
Multifidis: Sacrum to C4, very deep, like semispin.
Rotatores: inf lamina to sup spin process, cervial and thoracis, dont cross AO
Interspinalis: paired on each side of spin proc, can extend but mostly stabilize
Intertransversari: mainly stabilize but can flex laterally, cerv, thorac, and lumb

43
Q

Spinal Flexion MMT

A

Rect Ab + obliques: pt is supine, legs extended, hands behind head, “curl up and lift shoulder blades off table”=5, w/arms across chest=4, w/arms @ side=3, 2=arms at side w/o lifting scapulae or post pelvic tilt, 1=palpable contraction w/cough

44
Q

Kendall’s Test

A

higher level MMT for abs, pt is supine, lift legs to 80’ w/post pelvic tilt then slowly lower legs, MMT3=75’, 3+=60’, 4-=45’, 4=30’, 4+=15’, 5

45
Q

Spinal Flexion & Rotation MMT

A

Int & Ext Obliques, same criteria as flexion (5=hands behind head, 4=cross chest, 3=at side, etc) but only one shoulder and elbow that are twisting near to clear table

46
Q

Spinal Extension MMT

A

Spinal Extensors, pt is prone, hands behind head, lift & clear chest from table, add pressure between scapulae & if held=5, break w/push=4, arms @ side=3, for only thoracic, then have neck & top of chest off table& have pt clear table

47
Q

Quadratus Lumborum MMT

A

Pt is lying supine, have them hike ipsilateral hip towards rib and try to pull down @ med/lateral maleolli, probably also recruiting obliques
