Lippert - Ch.15 Neck & Trunk muscles - pages 219-229
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| sternocleidomastoid: ORIGIN | sternum & clavicle |
| sternocleidomastoid: INSERTION | mastoid process |
| sternocleidomastoid: ACTION | BILATERALLY: flexes neck, hyperextends head; UNILATERALLY: laterally bends neck, rotates face to opposite side |
| sternocleidomastoid: NERVE | Accessory (CN XI), 2nd & 3rd cervical nerves |
| How many scalene muscles are there? | 3: anterior, middle, & posterior |
| scalenes: ORIGIN | transverse process of cervical vertebrae |
| scalenes: INSERTION | 1st & 2nd ribs |
| scalenes: ACTION | BILATERALLY: assists neck flexion; UNILATERALLY: neck lateral bending |
| scalenes: NERVE | lower cervical nerves |
| paravertebral muscles: LOCATION | deep, along anterior portion of the cervical vertebrae |
| paravertabral muscles: ROLE | flex EITHER neck or head, maintain postural control, & "tuck" the chin |
| names of 4 paravertebral muscles | longus colli, longus capitis, rectus capitis anterior, rectus capitis lateralis |
| longus colli: ORIGIN | bodies & transverse processes of C3-T2 |
| longus colli: INSERTION | transverse processes & bodies or C1-C6 |
| longus colli: ACTION | flex neck |
| longus capitis: ORIGIN | transverse processes of C3-C6 |
| longus capitis: INSERTION | occipital bone |
| longus capitis: ACTION | flex head |
| rectus capitis anterior: ORIGIN | Atlas |
| rectus capitis anterior: INSERTION | occipital bone |
| rectus capitis anterior: ACTION | flex head |
| rectus capitis lateralis: ORIGIN | transverse process of atlas |
| rectus capitis lateralis: INSERTION | occipital bone |
| rectus capitis lateralis: ACTION | laterally bend head |
| suboccipital muscles: LOCATION | below base of skull posterior |
| suboccipital muscles: ROLE | extend head via rocking motion of occipital condyles on atlas, or rotate head around odontoid process of axis |
| Which suboccipital muscles extend the head? | all 4: obliquus capitis superior & inferior, rectus capitis posterior minor & major |
| Which suboccipital muscles laterally band and rotate the head to the same side? | obliquus capitis inferior & rectus capitis posterior major |
| splenius capitis: ORIGIN | lower half of nuchal ligament; spinous processes of C7-T3 |
| splenius capitis: INSERTION | lateral occipital bone; mastiod process |
| splenius capitis: ACTION | BILATERALLY: extend head & neck; UNILATERALLY: rotate & laterally bend face to the same side |
| splenius capitis: NERVE | middle & lower cervical nerves |
| splenius cervicis: ORIGIN | spinous processes of T3-T6 |
| splenius cervicis: INSERTION | transverse processes of C1-C3 |
| splenius cervicis: ACTION | BILATERALLY: extend neck; UNILATERALLY: rotate & laterally bend the neck to same side |
| splenius cervicis: NERVE | middle & lower cervical nerves |
| rectus abdominis: ORIGIN | pubis |
| rectus abdominis: INSERTION | xiophoid process & costal cartilages of 5th, 6th, & 7th ribs |
| rectus abdominis: ACTION | trunk flexion; compression of abdomen |
| rectus abdominis: NERVE | 7th -12th intercostal nerves |
| external oblique: ORIGIN | lower 8 ribs laterally |
| external oblique: INSERTION | iliac crest & linea alba |
| external oblique: ACTION | BILATERALLY: trunk flaxion; compression of abdomen; UNILATERALLY: lateral bending, rotation to opposite side |
| external oblique: NERVE | 8th-12th intercostal, iliohypogastric, & ilioinguinal nerves |
| internal oblique: ORIGIN | inguinal ligament, iliac crest, thoracolumbar fascia |
