serratus posterior superior and inferior:

-intermediate layer of the back mm.
-innervation: ...
-function: "old" thought = respiratory
-new studies - proprioceptive?
-implicated as a source of chronic pain in ...
-anterior rami of spinal nn.
-myofascial pain syndromes
Intercostals (3 layers)

-Main action of intercostals:
maintain ... between ribs rather than elevate or depress ribs

(Levator costarum, subcostal, & transverse thoracic are of lesser importance)
spacing
if you fix the upper ribs, the intercostals will move ...

if you fix the lower ribs, the intercostals will move ...
up
down
Accessory mm of respiration

a. Origin ... of thoracic cage (i.e. ...)
b. Assist in ... inspiration and expiration
c. Examples:
- pectoralis major & minor
- serratus anterior
- scalenes
outside
extrinsic
forced
Diaphragm
a. Primary muscle of .../quiet respiration
b. Shape: 2 domes; right higher (why?)
normal
liver is there
Diaphragm Attachments:

- peripheral: inferior margin of ...; superior lumbar vertebrae
- central: ... tendon

- innervation: ...
thoracic cage
central

left and right phrenic nn. (C3-5)
the diaphragm is what kind of muscle?
skeletal muscle
Hiccups:

involuntary, spasmatic contractions of ... --> sudden ... --> spasmodic closure of ... (in larynx)
diaphragm
inhalation
glottis
cause of hiccups:

-irritation of ... endings (motor/sensory)
-control centers in ...
nerve
brainstem
what causes the cause of hiccups:

-indigestion, ... irritation, alcohol, brain lesions, thorax/abdominal lesions
-anything that might "disturb" the ... nerves
diaphragm
phrenic
movements of the thoracic cage cause and allow for ... and ... of lungs

-lungs can ... the size of the thorax, and the thorax can ... the size of the lungs
expansion
contraction

decrease
increase
Lungs are "...": They will "..." if allowed to and "pull" on the thoracic walls and decrease thoracic space

... in pleural cavity keeps lungs from collapsing, so as thoracic muscles expand thoracic space, the lungs must follow
elastic
collapse

negative pressure
expansion of the chest wall --> pulls on the ... surface of lung --> expands lung --> creates a ... inside the lung --> "sucks" ... into the lung

relaxation of the chest wall --> allows the elastic lung to "recoil" (...) --> forces air ... of the lung
outer
negative pressure
air

collapse
out
anterior-posterior (AP) diameter:

-... acts as a "pump handle" with ribs #-#; relatively large change in AP dimension
sternum
1-7
transverse (lateral) diameter:

ribs #-# act as a "bucket handle"; relatively smaller change in dimension
8-10
chest wall expansion:

primary agonists = ... muscles
intercostal
vertical diameter: diaphragm

contraction: moves ...
relaxation: moves ...
unilateral nerve lesion: ... nerve is involved and a ... movement occurs where as the good side of the diaphragm moves down, it pushes on abdominal contents and shifts it to the other side and pushes the other paralyzed side up. (good side moves one way, bad side moves opposite way)
inferiorly
superiorly
phrenic
paradoxical
changes with age:

-rib cage: ribs less ...; costal cartilages ...

kyphosis
strong
functional
degeneration
which organ lies directly deep to ribs #9-11?
spleen
fractures of a rib commonly occur just anterior to the ..., the weakest point of the rib, and may cause a ...
angle of the rib
pneumothorax
what causes involuntary contractions of the diaphragm and may result in hiccups?
irritative phrenic nerve lesion
what may result in paralysis and paradoxical movement of one half of the diaphragm?
destructive phrenic nerve lesion
a fractured 9th, 10th, or 11th rib on the left may lacerate the ..., which bleeds profusely when lacerated and is usually removed
spleen
