Things I can't remember Flashcards
ROM opening for TMJ
35-50 mm
Lateral Deviation for TMJ ROM
10-15 mm
Protrusion TMJ ROM
3-6 mm
Acute phase Treatment of TMJ
Patient Education Postural Retraining Modalities Biofeedback E-Stim Massage
What are the 2 components of TMJ opening?
Rotation 25mm
Glide 15 mm
C-curve TMJ opening demonstrates
Hypomobility, internal derageent of the manidble which deviates toward involved side midrange of opening.
S-Curve is due to what
Muscle imbalance, lateral excursion with mouth open
Reciporical Clicking is a sign for
Anterior Disc Displacement with reduction
Type of pain:
Cramping, Dull, Aching
Muscle
Type of pain:
Dull, ache
Ligament or capsule
Sharp, shooting pain
nerve root
Burning, pressure like, stinging, aching
Sympathetic nerve
Deep, nagging, ache
BONE
Sharp, severe, intolerable
Fracture
Throbbing, diffuse
Vasculature
Action of SCM
Unilaterally; cervical rotation to opposite side, cervical lateral flexion to same side
Bilaterally; cervical flexion, raises the sternum and assists in forced inspiration.
-Spinal Accessory nerve
Decorticate Posturing disruption of what tract?
Lateral Corticospinal tract (supplies flexor muscles in the LEs)
Decerbrate is brain stem damage below what level
red nucleus, disruption of the Rubrospinal and Lateral Corticospinal.
Responds to shaking and loud voice
obtunded
Responds to painful stimulation, groans, reflex acitivty
Stupor
Sleeps when not stimulated, inattentive, responds to name
Lethargy
Memory impaired, disoriented
confusion
Contraindication for Cervical Thrust techniques
- Cranial Nerve Sign
- Loss of bowel or blader control (specific in lumbar)
- Painful movements in all joint direction
- Bilateral or multisegmental neurologic signs or symptoms
- UMN signs
- Emotional disorders
- Anticoagants consumption or steriods for long time
- Inexperienced clinician
Weight Bearing Axis in the spine
C1, 7, T10 and S2
Normal Spine ROMS
C0-C1
10-15 deg of flexion/extension
8 deg of SB
Limited SB in C-spine due to the
Uncovertebral Joints
C1-2 ROM
ROTATION GREATEST: 45 deg
C3-C7 ROM
64 deg Flex
24 deg Ext
40 deg lateral flex
40 deg rotation
Facet Joint Alignment for
Cervical
Thoracic
Lumbar
Cervical: 45 deg to vertical in sagittal plane at C2-7
Thoracic: 60 deg to the vertical in sagittal plane
Lumbar: vertically oriented (90) little rotation and flexion
The Dorsal Primary Ramus innervates?
Paraspinal Muscles and Facet joints( medial branch of DPR especially important in facet joint innervation)
In C-spine, each nerve root is named for the vertebra ______?
Below, for example C5 nerve root exists between C4 and C5
In the rest of the spine, each nerve root is named for the vertebra _____?
Above, for example L4 nerve root exists between L4 and L5
However, with P/L disc herniation in Lumbar spine, what nerve root would be affected if there was an L4/5 herniation?
L5. and L5/S1 –>S1 would be affected.
Grades and Joint Status 0 1 2 3 4 5 6

Capsular pattern for Upper Cervical
Forward Flexion more limited than extension
C1-C2 capsular pattern
restricted rotation
Lower Cervical/Upper T-spine/Lumbar capsular pattern
SB and R equally limited
