Q

What are the names of the suboccipital muscles?

Study These Flashcards
A

-rectus capitis posterior major, rectus capitis posterior minor, oblique capitis superior, oblique capitis inferior

23
Q

Which suboccipital muscle does not articulate with skull?

Study These Flashcards
A

-oblique capitis inferior

24
Q

Where is quadratus lumborum palpable

Study These Flashcards
A

-between borders of the last rib, posterior iliac crest, and transverse processes of lumbar vertebrae

25
When right external oblique contracts, what are the two unilateral actions?
- rotate to opposite side (left) | - laterally flex to same side (right)
26
When right external oblique contracts what other muscle is contracting to achieve same actions at same time?
- right internal oblique for side bending | - left internal oblique for rotation
27
What is the orientation of brachial plexus as it runs over the first rib in relation to the scalene muscles?
- large branches pass through anterior and middle scalenes - it is possible to impinge on the nerves of the plexus and cause pain when palpating - swimmers have hytrophied scalenes
28
Primary Curve of Spine
- kyphosis - posterior curve - born with this
29
Secondary Curve of Spine
- cervical lordosis - developed second - babies looking up
30
Lumbar Lordosis
- lower anterior curve | - to support and lower center of balance
31
How many cervical vertebrae are there?
-seven
32
How many thoracic vertebrae are there?
-twelve
33
How many lumbar vertebrae are there?
-five
34
How many sacral vertebrae are there?
- 4-5 | - fused
35
Vertebral Artery
- branches off subclavian artery - supplies blood to brain and spinal cord - ascends through C6-C1 through foramen magnum into brain - inaccessible but vital to be aware when palpating and moving neck
36
What passes between scalenes?
-subclavian artery and brachial plexus between anterior and middle
37
Lumbar Vertebrae
- wider, fatter - smaller vertebral foramen - superior facets face medial - facets oriented for motion in sagittal plane - flexion and extension
38
Thoracic Vertebrae
- spinous processes point down - narrow processes - built for stability to protect thoracic region - superior facets face posteriorly - facets oriented for motion in frontal plane - lateral flexion
39
Cervical Vertebrae
- have transverse foramen - atlas C1 - axis C2 - superior facets face medially - facets oriented for motion in transverse plane - rotation
40
Landmarks for Levels of Spine
- C7: base of neck - T2: superior angle of scapula - T7: inferior angle of scapula - T12: twelfth rib - L4: top of iliac crest
41
Eight Pulse Points
- carotid - brachial - umbilical - radial - popliteal - femoral (in femoral triangle from medial to lateral-->VAN vein, artery, nerve) - dorsal pedis - posterior tibial
42
When do you select one point over another in regards to proximal or distal?
- if doing CPR choose proximal - making sure peripheral circulation present go distal - distal in children is harder because they wiggle
43
Carotid Pulse
-between sternocleidomastoid and trachea
44
Brachial Pulse
-between bicep and coracobrachialis
45
Radial Pulse
-anterior distal forearm on radial bone
46
Aorta Pulse
-two inches above umbilicus, slightly laterally pushing deep diagonally
47
Femoral Pulse
-in femoral triangle, inguinal ligament, sartorius, and adductor longus
48
Popliteal Pulse
- within popliteal fossa, lateral and medial hamstring tendons and head of gastroc - press laterally against posterior tibia
49
Posterior Tibial Pulse
-posterior to medial malleolus
50
Dorsalis Pedis
-between first two metacarpals between lateral extensor tendons
51
Name the structures that pass anterior to posterior as they go posterior to medial malleolus under flexor retinaculum in the tarsal tunnel
- tibialis posterior - flexor digitorum longus - posterior tibial artery - posterior tibial vein - tibial nerve - flexor hallucis longus
