upper respiratory - Ferrill and Kania Flashcards
upper lungs chapman’s point
anterior: b/w ribs 3-4 close to the sternal border
posterior: b/w T3-T4 near spinous processes
lower lungs chapman’s point
anterior: b/w ribs 4-5 close to sternal border
posterior: b/w T4-T5 near spinous processes
bronchus chapman’s point
anterior: b/w ribs 3-4 close to sternal border
posterior: midway b/w TP and SP of T2 on posterior aspect of TP
nose chapman’s point
anterior: costochondrol junction of 1st rib
posterior: place finger under the jaw angle, like you are drawing a line across the face to parallel the line of the mouth and pushing the finger backward until you come in line with the TP of the vertebrae
tonsils chapman’s point
anterior: 1st and 2nd intercostal space closer to sternum
posterior: surface of C1 TP, midway between the median line of the neck and the tip of the TP
sinuses chapman’s point
anterior: 3.5in from the sternum, on the upper edge of 2nd rib and in the 1st intercostal space above
posterior: midway b/w TP and SP of C2 on the superior aspect of the TP
middle ear chapman’s point
anterior: upper edge of the clavicle, just beyond where it crosses the 1st rib
posterior: upper edge of the posterior aspect of the tip of C1 TP
pharynx chapman’s point
anterior: front of the 1st rib 3/4-1in toward the sternum from where the clavicle crosses the rib
posterior: midway b/w the SP and TP of C2, on the posterior aspect of the TP
larynx chapman’s point
anterior: upper surface of the 2nd rib, 2-3in from the sternum
posterior: midway b/w the TP and SP of C2 on the superior aspect of the TP
5 treatment models
- biomechanical, postural, structural
- neurological - symp and PS
- resp/circulatory/lymph
- metabolic, nutritional, bioenergetic
- psychobehavioral - influences perceptions of pain, illness, disability
upper thoracic dysfx with resp problems (viscerosomatic changes)
extended segments palpatory changes at T2-T4 on the left
cervical dysfx during resp problems affects?
superior, middle, and inferior cervical ganglia
pertinent autonomics for resp problems?
T1-6: synpases occurs in the upper thoracic and/or cervical chain ganglia
SD at the thoracolumbar junction (esp flexed T10-L2) can cause?
increased sympathetic tone to the adrenal gland which can lead to weakening of the immune system if chronically present, can also impair toxin excretion via the kidneys and intestines with chronic SD
scoliosis >75 degrees can affect?
can compromise resp function
vagus nerves run through which structures in the cranium?
OA
AA
cranial base
occipitomastoid sutures
SD in which structures can alter drainage of the sinuses and function of the diaphragm?
- cranium (SBS compression, occipitomastoid compression affecting jugular foramen)
- occiput
- atlas
- remainder of cervical spine
SD in which structures can affect production of mucus and nasal congestion?
superior, middle, and inferior cervical ganglia
sphenopalatine ganglia
clavicles affect?
anterior cervical fascia
