Question | Answer |
---|---|
Vertebral cavity | 1 |
epidural space | 2 |
dura mater | 3 |
subdural space | 4 |
arachnoid mater | 5 |
subarachnoid space | 6 |
pia mater | 7 |
dura mater | outer |
arachnoid mater | middle CEREBROSPINAL FLUID |
pia mater | inner |
Spinal taps | Pass through spinous process of rth lumbar vertebrae |
denticulate ligaments | extensions of pia mater |
Dura mater extends | sacral second vertebrae |
Spinal cord extends | medulla obongata to the superior border of second lumbar vertebrae |
Elongation of spinal cord stops at age | 4-5 the vertebral column continues to grow |
Cervical enlargement | C4-T1 upper limbs |
Lumbar enlargement | T9-T12 |
The spinal cord terminates at | conus medullaris |
filum terminale | extension of the pia mater; anchors the spinal cord to coccyx |
The spinal cord is shorter than vertebral column | Nerves arise from the lumbar sacral and coccygeal region |
Cauda equina | are the roots of the nerve that come from the lumbar, sacral and coccygeal regions |
cervical nerves | 8 |
thoracic nerves | 12 pairs |
Lumbar nerves | 5 pairs |
Sacral nerves | 5 pairs |
Coccygeal nerve | 1 |
posterior dorsal root | contain only sensory axons that go into CNS |
anterior ventral root | motor neurons conduct impulses from the CNS |
Spinal nerve roots exit the vertebral cavity | intervertebal foramina |
gray mater forms | horn/nuclei |
white matter | columns/tracts |
Spinal nerves are part of the | PNS |
Spinal nerves-How many? | 31 pairs |
endoneurium | inner most layer |
perineurium | groups of axons are arranged in bundles or fascicles middle layer |
epineurium | outer most covering of the ENTIRE NERVE |
Branches | rami |
Posterior dorsal ramus | Trunk and muscles of the back |
Anterior ventral ramus | Upper and lower limbs |
Meningeal branch | reenters the vertebral cavity |
Axons of the anterior rami do not go directly to the body structure | EXCEPTION-T2-T12 |
Cervical plexus | C1-C5 phrenic C3, C4, C5 keep the diaphragm alive |
Plexus always share a nerve | (blank) |
T2-T12 are also knoen as | intercostal nerves; NO PLEXUS; Supply intercostal abdominal and skin region |
Brachial Plexus | C5-C8 and T1 |
IN order from the Vertebrae out | Randy Travis Drinks Cold Beer RAMUS TRUNKS DIVISION CORDS BRANCHES |
Brachial plexus | shoulder and limbs |
Five important nerves arise from brachial plexus | MA RUM-Median, Axillary, Radial, Ulnar, and Median Nerves |
Erb-Duchenne Palsy/Waiter's tip | Shoulder Adducted-Arm Medially Rotated-Elbow is extended-Forearm pronated-Wrist flexed--LOSS OF SENSATION ON THE LATERAL SIDE |
Wrist drop | Radial nerve- Inability to extend the wrist and fingers |
Median Nerve Injury | Effect palm and fingers-no pronate forearm and flex proximal interphalangeal joints of all digits |
Ulnar nerve injury | inability to abduct or adduct the fingers; CLAWHAND-Loss of sensation over the little finger |
Long thoracic Nerve injury | Paralysis of serratus anterior MEDIAL BORDER PROTRUDES--Winged scapula |
Lumbar plexus L1-L4 supplies | anterolatera abdominal wall, external genitals, part of lower limbs |
LARGEST NERVE ARISING FROM THE LUMBAR PLEXUS | FEMORAL NERVE |
Femoral Nerve injury | Inabilty to EXTEND THE LEG |
Sacral Plexus | L4-L5 and S1-S4 |
THE LARGEST NERVE IN THE BODY | SCIATIC |
Most common form of bank pain is caused by | compression of the sciatic nerve |
The majority of sciatic injuries are common | Common fibular portion |
Footdrop | Damage to common fibular nerve causes the foot to be PLANTAR FLEXED |
EQUINOVARUS | Injury to fibular nerve plante flexed and INVERTED |
CALCANEOVALGUS | Dorsiflexion and EVERSION : Tibial nerve |
FOOT DROP | Plantar flexed-Fibular Nerve |
SCIATIC | LARGEST OF THE SACRAL PLEXUS AND BODY!!! |
