Term
Definition
Where does motor innervation for VP closure muscles come from?   Pharyngeal Plexus  
🗑
Palatoglossus motor innervation   XII (hypoglossal)  
🗑
Tensor Veli Palatini motor innervation   V (trigemental)  
🗑
Sensory for hard and soft palate comes from   greater and lesser palatine nerves and also CN X  
🗑
Sensory for faucial and pharyngeal regions   XI (glossopharyngeal nerve)  
🗑
Which two CN also possibly assist in innervating sensory of faucial and pharyngeal regions of oral cavity?   Facial (VII) and Vagus (X)  
🗑
Where is velum for nasal sounds?   Lowered  
🗑
Which muscles lower velum?   Palatoglossus and paltopahryngeous  
🗑
Where is velum for oral sounds?   Elevated  
🗑
Which muscles help to close off velum?   Levator veli palatini Musculus Uvulae Palatopharyngeous Superor pharyngeal constrictor muscles  
🗑
Types of closure patterns   Coronal Sagital Circular  
🗑
Coronal closure   velum against posterior pharyngeal walls with minimal movement of lateral PW  
🗑
What is the most common pattern of velum closure?   Coronal  
🗑
Circular closure   All velopharyngeal structures contribute to closure equally  
🗑
Which closure pattern represents a true sphincter   Circular  
🗑
Sagittal closure   Lateral PW move medially behind velum (not against), minimal posterior displacement of soft palate  
🗑
What is the least common velum closure pattern?   Sagittal  
🗑
Contact on Passavant's ridge   Circular  
🗑
Contact on posterior pharyngeal wall   Coronal  
🗑
Contact on adenoid pads   Sagittal  
🗑
What leads to variation in velum closure patterns?   Age Gender Race Phonetic context  
🗑
Children under 13 show VP closure at __________   Palatal Plane  
🗑
Palatal plane   Straight line from anterior to posterior nasal spine  
🗑
Velar hight is higher when producing _______ rather than _______   Consonants; vowels  
🗑
High pressure consonants   plosives, fricatives, affricates  
🗑
Velar height is lower when producing _____ rather than _______   Other consonants; high pressure consonants  
🗑
Velar hight is higher when producing _______ rather than _______   High vowels; low vowels  
🗑
VP closure is tighter when producing _______ rather than _______   Consonants; vowels  
🗑
VP closure is weaker when producing ________ rather than ______   Low vowels; high vowels  
🗑
Passavant's Ridge   Shelf-like presence on PPW, compensatory for kids with clefts  
🗑
How could Adenoid Pad affect VP closure?   Be enlarged or irregular  
🗑
What happens when Adenoid pad is enlarged?   Prevents tight air seal, can cause gaps  
🗑
Gaps in VP closure lead to   Nasal air emissions (VPI)  
🗑
What happens when adenoid pad is irregular?   Cause obstruction, interfere with lateral posterior wall movement, prevent air tight seal  
🗑
What does obstruction of VP closure lead to?   Cul de sac resonance  
🗑
When does VPI persist?   In kids with sub mucous cleft  
🗑
How long does VPI persist if a child has their adenoids removed (w/o additional issues)?   6 months  
🗑
Cul-de-sac reonsance   muffled resonance/speech  
🗑
