What are the 3 muscle groups of the back?
|
superficial
intermediate deep |
|
Superficial muscles?
|
extrinsic muscles of the back (don't affect back directly)
|
|
Role of Superficial muscles? 2
|
produce and control limb movements
connect pectoral girdle to axial skeleton |
|
Intermediate muscles?
|
extrinsic muscles of the back
|
|
Role of intermediate muscles?
|
may produce respiratory movement
|
|
Deep muscles of back?
|
intrinsic muscles of the back
|
|
Role of deep muscles? 3
|
specifically act on vertebral column producing its movement and maintaining posture
assist of movement of head |
|
Innervation of Superifical back muscles?
|
nerved formed by ventral rami
|
|
What are the 4 Superficial back muscles?
|
trapezius
latissimus dorsi levator scapulae rhomboids |
|
What are the 2 Intermediate back muscles?
|
serratus posterior superior
serratus posterior inferior |
|
Innervation of intermediate back muscles?
|
intercostal nerves
|
|
Innervation of deep muscles of back?
|
dorsal rami of spinal nerves
|
|
What are the 3 groups of the deep muscles of back?
|
superficial intrinsic layer
intermediate intrinsic layer deep intrinsic layer |
|
What does the spinal nerve divide into?
|
dorsal and ventral rami
|
|
What muscles are in the superficial intrinsic layer? 2
|
splenius capitis
splenius cervicis |
|
Action of splenius capitis and splenius cervicis?
|
-both extend the head and nack if contracted bilaterally
-one side will pull the neck and head to the same side |
|
Origin & insertion of splenius capitis?
|
O- Lower half of ligamentum nuchae (C4 to C6) and spinous processes of C7 to T4
I- mastoid process |
|
Origin & insertion of splenius cervicis?
|
O-Spinous processes of T3 to T6
I- transverse process |
|
Innervation of splenius capitis and splenius cervicis?
|
Dorsal ramus: cervical region
|
|
Ligamentum Nuchae?
|
a fibrous sheet between the occipital bone and the 7th cervical vertebrae
-used for muscle attachment |
|
What muscles are in the Intermediate intrinsic layer?
|
erector spinae
|
|
What 3 muscles are in the erector spinae?
|
iliocostalis
longissimus spinalis |
|
Role of Iliocostalis?
|
-extends vertebral column when acting together
-bends vertebral column to same side if only one side contracts |
|
Origin & insertion of Iliocostalis?
|
O-Iliac crest
I- ribs |
|
Action of Longissimus?
|
-acting together extends vertebral column
-one side will bend the vertebral column to the same side -capitis portion will extend the head or unilaterally/ one side will turn face to same side |
|
Origin & insertion Longissimus?
|
O- Illiac crest
I- mastoid process |
|
Action of Spinalis?
|
extends vertebral column and head
|
|
Origin & insertion Spinalis?
|
O-spinous process
I- occipital bone |
|
What muscles are in the deep intrinsic layer?
|
transversospinal group
|
|
Origin and Insertion of Transversospinal group?
|
O-transverse process
I- spinous process |
|
The 3 muscles in the Tranversospinal group?
|
Semispinalis
multifidus rotatores |
|
Spinalis?
|
crosses 6 vertebrae
|
|
Mutlifidus?
|
crosses 4 vertebrae
|
|
Rotatores?
|
crosses 1 to 2 vertebrae
|
|
Action of Tranversospinal group?
|
rotate the body to the opposite side
|
|
Quadratus Lumborum?
|
is NOT a back muscle but forms part of the posterior abdominal wall
|
|
Innervation of Quadratus Lumborum?
|
ventral rami
|
|
Action of Quadratus Lumborum?
|
-both sides together will extend lumbar spine
-one side will bend to the same side |
|
Origin & insertion of Quadratus Lumborum?
|
O- iliac crest
I- ribs and tranverse process |
