innermost intercostals

A

O: inferior border of ribs
I: superior border of ribs
Inn: intercostal nerves
Blood: intercostal arteries

36
Q

external intercostal muscles

A
  • fibers move in an inferomedial direction (anterior view)
  • elevates the ribs during force inspiration
    provides support for the thoracic age during respiration
36
Q

internal intercostal muscles

A
  • fibers move in a posterior inferolateral direction (anterior view)
  • depress the ribs during force expiration
  • provide support for the thoracic cage during respiration
  • intercondral portion of muscle contributes to elevation of ribs
37
Q

innermost intercostal muscles

A

-fibers move in a posterior inferolateral direction (anterior/lateral view)
- occupy middle 2/4 of the rib
- depress the ribs during force expiration (work with internal intercostals)
- provides support for the thoracic cage during respiration / increased muscle tone and rigidity

38
Q

serratus posterior - superior

A

O: nuchal ligament - spinous process C7-T2
I: Superior border of ribs 2-5
Inn: intercostal nerves
Blood: PIA

39
Q

Serratus Posterior - inferior

A

O: spinous process of T11-L2
I:Inferior border of ribs 9-12
Inn: intercostal nerves
Blood: PIA

40
Q

what muscles are proprioceptive feedback to the brain?

A

serratus posterior - respiratory muscles

41
Q

subcostal muscle

A

O: internal surface of lower ribs
I: superior border (internal surface) of ribs 2-3 inferior to origin
Inn: intercostal nerves
Blood: PIA and musculophrenic artery
- depress the ribs during expiration
-provides support for thoracic cage during respiration

42
Q

transversus thoracis

A

O: posterior sternum body and xyphoid process, costal cartilages 4-7
I:internal surface of costal cartilage 2-6
Inn: intercostal nerves
Blood: branches of internal thoracic arteries
- depress - expiration
- support for the intercostal spaces and thoracic cage during respiration

43
Q

levatores costtarum

A

O: c7-t11 transverse processes
I:adjacent rib
Inn: dorsal rami C8-T11
Blood: PIA
- elevate - inspiration
-contributes to rotation of the thoracic spine

44
Q

muscles of inspiration action

A

contraction of diaphragm, intercostal muscles increases diameter of thoracic cage

45
Q

accessory muscles for inspiration

A
  • sternocledomastoid (elevates the sternum)
  • scalene muscles (elevate upper ribs)
  • lavatories costarum (elevate rib)
  • muscles of back and upper limb (trap, pec)
46
Q

muscles of expiration action

A

passive recoil of lungs and thoracic cage; intercostal muscles decrease diameter of thoracic cage

47
Q

accessory muscles for expiration

A

-abdominal muscles (depress lower ribs and compress abdominal contents)
-subcostal muscles (depress ribs)
-transversus thoracis (depress ribs)
