Positive with foot moving to plantar surface

29
Q

Biceps/Triceps Reflex

A
30
Q

Clonus Test

A

Rhythmic, oscillating stretch reflex
Relaxed lower leg; sharp dorsiflexion of foot; hold in place to observe oscillations
Positive: upper motor neuron lesion

31
Q

Babinski Reflex

A

Run something along lateral sides of foot towards toes
If positive: upper motor neuron issue

32

33
Q

Three parts to Brain

A

Cerebrum
Cerebellum
Brainstem

34

A

Superior Cerebellar peduncles
Middle Cerebellar peduncles
Inferior Cerebellar peduncles

36
Q

Cerebellar Peduncles connect

A

Cerebellum with rest of NS

37
Q

Dentate
Emboliform
Globose
Fastigial

40
Q

Interposed nucleus

A

Emboliform and globose nuclei together

41
Q

3 ways to divide cerebellum

A

Anatomical
Zones
Functional

42
Q

Anatomic lobes

A

Anterior
Posterior
Flocculonodular

43
Q

Flocculonodular lobe

A

Oldest part of brain
Balance and spatial orientation
Connects with vestibular nuclei

44
Q

Zones of Cerebellum

A

Vermis
Intermediate Zone
Lateral Hemisphere Zone

45
Q

Vermis

A

Midline of cerebellum

46
Q

Intermediate zone

A

Paravermis
On either side of vermis

47
Q

A

Lateral to intermediate zone

48
Q

Functional Divisions

A

Cerebrocerebellum
Spinocerebellum
Vestibulocerebellum

49
Q

Cerebrocerebellum

A

Largest division
Lateral hemisphere
Planning movements/motor learning
Regulates coordination of muscle activation; visual guided movements
Sends output to thalmus and red nucleus

50
Q

Spinocerebellum

A

Vermis and intermediate zones
Regular body movements; allow for error correction
Receives proprioceptive info

51
Q

Vestibulocerebellum

A

Functional equivalent to flocculonodular lobe
Controls balance and ocular reflexes (fixation on target)

52
Q

Blood supply to Cerebellum

A

Superior cerebellar artery (SCA)
Anterior Inferior Cerebellar artery (AICA)
Posterior Inferior Cerebellar artery (PICA)

53

57
Q

Superior/inferior cerebellar veins drain into…

A

Superior petrosal
Transverse
Straight Dural venous sinuses

58
Q

Functions of Cerebellum

A

Coordination of gait
Maintain posture
Control muscle tone/voluntary muscle activity

59
Q

Cerebellum is unable to initiate

A

Muscle contraction

60
Q

Damage to cerebellum

A

Loss of ability to control finer movements
Loss of ability to maintain posture
Loss of ability for motor learning

61
Q

A

Inability to perform rapid alternating movements

63
Q

Ataxia

A

Loss of control over voluntary movements
Can appear intoxicated

64
Q

Nystagmus

A

Ataxia of ocular muscles - rhythmic oscillations of eye

65
Q

Intention tremor

A

Involuntary rhythmic muscle contractions occuring during purposeful, voluntary movements
Worses as person gets closer to target

66
Q

Scanning speech/Dysarthria

A

Ataxia of phonation laryngeal muscles
Slurred speech

67
Q

Hypotonia

A

Loss of muscle tone due to diminished influence of cerebellum on gamma motor neurons
