Define the following types of muscle contraction.... ch. 1
a. isotonic b. isometric c. isolytic |
a. results in the approximation of the muscle's origin and insertion without a change in its tension... Operator's force is less than the patient's force
b. results in the increase in tension without an approximation of origin and insertion (operator and patient force are same) c. against resistance forcing muscle to lengthen (dr's force greater than the patients) |
|
|
Define the following types of muscle contraction (ch1)
a. concentric b. eccentric |
a. results in approximation of the muscles origin and insertion with chang in tension (opposed to isotonic)
b. lengthening of the muscle during contraction due to an external force |
|
|
What kind of testing is done to the OA to determine sidebending freedom of motion?
What do you call it if there is restriction to Right translation of the OA? (ch.2) |
Right translation will produce left sidebending
- if restriction to right translation, there is a freedom to left translation and therefore more range of motion to sidebend Right |
|
|
How is an acute injury to cervical spin best treated?
Due to a likely association... what should treatment for suboocipital or paravertebral muscle spasms first focus on? (ch 2) |
1. acute injury to cervical spine best treated with indirect fascial techniques or counterstrain first
2. associated with upper thoracic or rib problems on the same side therefore treat those before you treat c-spine |
|
|
What is the most common cause of cervical nerve root pressure symptoms? (ch. 2)
|
degenerative changes within the joints of luschka and hypertrophy of the intervertebral (facet) joints
|
|
|
Anterior and middle scalene will help do what to the first rib? (ch. 2)
The posterior scalene will help do what to the second rib? |
elevate during forced inhalation
- posterior helps elevate second rib during forced inhalation |
|
|
SCM (sternocleidomastoid0 originates from where and inserts where? (ch 2)
With a right SCM contraction where does neck go? |
origin- mastoid process and later half of the superior nuchal line
insertion- medial 1/3 of the clavicle and sternum - contraction causes right sidebend and rotates left or (STRA) |
|
|
For the following landmarks what is the corresponding spinal level? (ch. 3)
a. spine of scapula b. inferior angle of scapula c. sternal angle (angle of louis) d. nipple e. umbilicus |
a. T3
b. T7 c. second rib and T4 d. T4 dermatome e. T10 dermatome |
|
|
Main motion of the thoracic spine? (ch. 3)
|
rotation except T11 and 12 may be flexion/extension> sidebending> rotation.
|
|
|
What are the primary muscles of respiration? also what are the actions of them? (ch.3)
|
1. diaphragm (contracts w/inspirationa and causes pressure gradients to help return lymph and venous blood back to the thorax
2. intercostals- elevates the ribs during inspiration and prevents retraction during inpiration |
|
|
What do all typical ribs have? Which part of the ribs articulates with the vertebra? (ch. 3)
|
1. tubercle- articulates with the corresponding transverse process
2. head- articulates with the vertebra above and corresponding vertebra 3. neck 4. angle 5. shaft |
|
|
a. Which of the ribs are typical? (ch. 3)
b. which are the atypical (what is mnemonic)? c. why are the atypicals called such? |
a. 3-10
b. 1, 2, 11, 12 (typical ribs have 1's and 2's) c. 1- because it articulates only with T1 and has not angle 2- has a large tuberosity on the shaft for the serratus anterior 11,12- atypical because they articulate only with the corresponding vertebrae and lack tubercles |
|
|
Describe "true, false, and floating" ribs (ch. 3)
|
Ribs- 1-7 attach to sternum through costal cartilage (TRUE)
Ribs- 8-12 do not attach directly to sternum (FALSE) Ribs- 11-12 further classified as Floating because they are completely unattached anteriorly |
|
|
What is the action of the piriformis?
What happens when there is a hypertonic piriformis? |
Action- ex rotation, extension of thigh and aBduction of thigh with hip flexed
Innervation- S1 and S2 - hypertonicity can cause Buttock pain because peroneal portion of sciatic nerve runs through belly of the muscle that radiates down the thigh, but not usually below the knee |
