  • Front
  • Back
what does SCALP stand for
S-skin
C-connective tissue
A-aponeurosis
L-loose connective tissue
P-pericranium
the aponeurosis is between what muscles
occipitofrontalis (frontal and occipital bellies) and superior auricular muscle
what part of the SCALP is a broad flat tendon between two muscles
aponeurosis
what allows the scalp to move
loose connective tissue
what is the outer layer of the periosteum
pericranium
what coats the cranium itself
pericranium
what are the portions of the skull
neurocranium
viscerocranium
what is the neurocranium and what bones compose it
bony covering of the brain
composed of 8 bones: frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid, ocipital, temporal, parietal
what is the viscerocranium and what bones compose it
facial skeleton
consists of 15 bones: mandible, nasal, lacrimal, zygomatic, maxilla, palintine
what are fontanelles
wide spaces at the junction of two bones, this is found in the fetal skull
what does a bulging fontanelle and sunken fontanelle indicate
bulging - increased intracranial pressure

sunken - dehydration
what are the external structures of the ear
Auricle(pinna): helix, concha, tragus, lobule

external auditory meatus (external ear canal) - S shapped
what are the properties of the external auditory meatus
terminates at the tympanic membrane

parts of it are attached directly to bone
why would someone feel nauseated if you stuck a q tip too far into their ear
parts of the ear canal are innervated by the vagus nerve (CN X) which also innervates the abdomen
what are the middle ear structures
tympanic membrane
auditory ossicles - malleus, incus, stapes
muscles - tensor tympani, stapedius
eustachain tube
what are the properties of the tympanic membrane
oridnarily translucent and pearly gray
contains: the cone of light, umbo, pars flaccida, pars tensa
what are the properties of the auditory ossicles
composed of malleus, incus, stapes

stapes is attached to the oval window

oval window is smaller than TM but through sound transmission through the bones sound is amplified 10x
what are the muscles in the middle ear
tensor tympani - INNERVATED BY CN 5 (trigeminal never)
-contraction of this muscle causes tensing of the TM and DECREASES AMPLITUDE of sound to prevent damage

stapedius - INNERVATED BY CN 7. DECREASES RANGE OF OSCILLATION
what is the pharyngotympanic tube
eustachain tube
what are the properties of the eustachian tube
connects middle ear to pharynx
EQUALIZES PRESSURE IN THE MIDDLE EAR
what are the inner ear structures
bony labrinth - cochlea, semilunar canals, utricle/saccule
what part of the bony labyrinth is responsible for sensing rotational motion like driving in a curvy road
semilunar canals
what part of the bony labyrinth is responsible for sensing linear motion like car acceleration
utricle and saccule
what part of the bony labyrinth is responsible for hearing
cochlea (has hairs of varrying sizes that once they fibrate send signal to the brain telling us the frequency of the sound.)
what are the functions of the nose
olfaction
humidification of air
respiration
filtration of dust
what are the external structures of the nose
apex
nares
cartilage
nasal bones
what is the nasal septum formed by
cartilage and bone
why are you suppose to spray nasal sprays towards to sides of the nose and not the septum
the septum is highly vascularized and damage to it can result in nose bleeds
what forms the lateral walls of the nasal cavaties
concha
what is the function of the Concha (Turbinates)
increase surface area of nasal cavity (allow for humidification, filtering, and warming of the air)
what part of the nose allows us to tell how well a pt is doing
concha
what part of the concha is not visibule upon examination
superior nasal concha
what part of the nose contains foramina for olfactory nerve CN 1 fibers
roof of nasal cavity
damage to what nerve results in loss of smell
olfactory nerver (CN1)
in the nose what is the purpose of the Mucous Membrane
warm and moisten air
in the nose what is the purpose of the Paranasal sinuses
lighten the skull
contributes to mucous secretion of cavity
why would someone get the urge to sneeze at the sight of bright light
due to the crossing of the olfactory nerve and the optic nerves
what nerve innervates the facial muscles
CN 7
what facial muscle ELEVATES THE EYEBROWS AND WRINKLES SKIN OF FOREHEAD
occipitofrontalis (frontal belly)
what facial muscle RETRACTS THE SCALP
occipitofronalis (occipital belly)
what facial muscle CLOSES YOUR EYELIDS
Orbicularis Oculi

palperbral part - closes eyelid gently

orbital part - closese eyelids tightly (winking)
what facial muscle CLOSES THE MOUTH AND COMPRESSES AND PROTRUDES THE LIPS OR RESIST DISTENSION
orbicularis oris
what facial muscle PRESSES CHEEK AGAINST MOLAR TEETH
buccinator
what facial muscle DEPRESSES MANDIBLE AND TENSES SKIN OF FACE AND NECK TO CONVEY TENSION
platysma
what cranial nerve is the facial nerve
CN 7
what is Bell's Palsy and what happens
injury to the CN 7 which results in paralysis of some or all of the facial muscles on one side of the face
what are the muscles of mastication
temporal
masseter
lateral pterygoid
medial pterygoid
what innervates the muscle of mastication
mandibular division of Trigeminal nerve (CN V3)
when can you palpate the temporal muscle
when teeth are clinched
what are the actions of the temporal muscle
elevates the mandible (closing jaws)
retracts mandible
what are the actions of the masseter muscle
elevates mandible

bulges when teeth are clinched
what are the actions of the lateral pterygoid muscle
protrussion of the jaw
swings jaw to opposite side

LATERAL CHEWING MOTION
what are the actions of the medial pterygoid
elevates the mandle

acts synergistically with massetar muscle
how many permanent teeth does an adult have and how many deciduous teeth does a child have
child 20

what gland produces saliva
parotid (CN 9)
what gland causes you to squirt saliva
submandibular gland (CN 7)
