Ribs_Diaphragm_sternum Flashcards
(18 cards)
sequence of diaphragm contraction
1) central tendon (insertion point) drops down
2) increases AP and transverse diameters of the thoracic cage due to up and out pull on the ribs
*inhalation dilates vena caval aperture
contracts the esophageal hiatus
attachments of the diaphragm
1) lower 6 ribs b/l
2) xiphoid
3) Crura: L1-3 R, L1-2 L
True vs false ribs
1-7=true
8-12= false
3-9=typical
1 2 10 11 12= atypical
Pump handle
ribs 1-5 transverse axis TPs extend laterally increase AP diameter ribs move anterior, superior, and lateral
Bucket handle
ribs 6-10 AP axis TPS angle posteriorly increases transverse diameter ribs move superior and inferior/ lateral
Caliper motion
antero media and posterio-lateral
evident in ribs 11 and 12
vertical axis
exhalation SD
down in front up in back
resists inhalation
inhalation SD
up in front and down in back
resists exhalation
rib landmarks
1=manubrium 2=sternal angle 3=posterior with T3 at spine of scapula 7= posterior with T7 at inferior angle of scap 12=superior to iliac crest
movement of sternum with inhalation
with deep inhalation the sternum glides superior and the caudal ends moves anterior
movement of sternum with exhalation
entire sternum glides inferior and inferior end moves posterior
increasing sternal angle

decreasing sternal angle

Direct method for treating the sternum
one hand articulates the sternum at the angle while the other holds the thoracic spine and provides a counterforce
or rhythmically articulate both the body and manubrium
Indirect method for treating sternum
with hands covering the entire body of the sternum, push the body in the direction of ease while having pt breathe
or if supine have one hand on the thoracic spine while the other tests motion and does the “stacking” method of muscle energy
movements of the clavicle
abduction: proximal clavicle moves inferior with external rotation (i.e. shrug)
adduction : proximal clavicle moves superior with internal rotation
Flexion: distal moves anterior, proximal moves posterior
coracoclavicular ligament
conoid portion prevents anterior movement of clavicle
trapezoid portion prevents posterior movement of the clavicle
attachments for Sibson’s fascia
O: deep cervical fascia
1st rib, contiguous with axillary sheath and endothoracic fascia, over the cupula of the lung
**like an ox yolk: influence the contralateral side
