Test 4 - Ch. 20 Flashcards
What is the job of the cerebral peduncles?
bring UMN down to tracts
What message is carried in the inferior peduncle?
NEED to do
What message is carried in the middle peduncle?
change
What message is carried in the superior peduncle?
WANT to do
What tract is at the most anterior portion of the base of the BS?
corticospinal tract
What tract is in the middle of the BS?
TRACT OF SENSORY – UNCONCIOUS TOUCH AND PROPRIOCEPTION, CONCIOUS TOUCH AND PROPRIOCEPTION
TOUCH AND PAIN COME TOGETHER AT BS TO END IN SAME CORTEX LOCATION
MEDIAL LEMINISCUS
What is the name of the “roof” of the fourth ventricle?
And what do the four bumps do?
Tectum
2 X SUPERIOR Colliculi – INVOLVED IN TURNING HEAD IN RESPONSE TO VISUAL INPUT
-PERIPHERAL VISION – MESSAGE TO SUPERIOR COLLICULI – TURN HEAD TO SIGHT – INVOLUNTARY
2 X INFERIOR – INVOLVED IN TURNING HEAD IN RESPONSE TO AUDITORY INPUT
What are the four outputs of the reticular formation?
- OUTPUTS TO HEAD - REGULATES CONCIOUSNESS AND SLEEP-WAKE CYCLE – AROUSAL
- OUTPUT TO ALL THREE HORNS OF SC
A. DORSAL HORN OF SC – NEURONS FROM RETICULAR FORMATION TO DORSAL HORN AND INFLUENCE SYNAPSE OF PAIN PATHWAY- III OF PAINS CONTROL PATHWAY – DESCENdING – BS TO SC – CLOSE GATE AND NOT LET PAIN SIGNALS COME THROUGHB. TO LATERAL HORN – NEURONS FROM BS TO LATERAL HORNS OF SC – AUTONOMIC CONRTOL/ VISCERAL CONTROL – CONTROL FROM PONS AND MEDULLA DOWN TO SC – INFLUENCE PERIPHERAL AUTONOMIC NEURONS
C. TO VENTRAL HORN – CELL BODIES OF LMN – SLIGHTLY DEPOLARIZES LMN AND LOWERS THRESHOLD TO ACTIVIATE NEURONS WITH LESS EFFORT TO FIGHT OR FLEE
What circulation is the BS served by?
Posterior
Which Cranial Nn get blood supply from the vertebral A?
IX, X, XI, XII
Which Cranial Nn get blood supply from the basilarA?
V, VI, VII, VIII
What Cranial Nn get there blood supply from the posterior cerebral?
POSTERIOR CEREBRAL – II, IV
How would a pt present of they had damage to the R SC tract of BS?
contralateral
What are the segments of the BS?
Cranial nn
What happens of a cranial N is damaged?
