movements.
✔✔internal carotid and vertebral arteries - ✔✔carry blood to the brain
✔✔jugular vein - ✔✔returns blood from the brain
✔✔astrocytes - ✔✔Axon guidance and synaptic support, control of the blood brain
barrier and blood flow
✔✔vegas nerve - ✔✔80% of parasympathetic out flow
✔✔digestive system - ✔✔alone has equal nerve intervation as the rest of the body
✔✔Epinephren / norepinephren - ✔✔neuro transmitter used primarily in the sympathetic
NS
✔✔Acetocoline (ACh) - ✔✔neuro transmitter use primarily in the parasympathetic NS
✔✔Hormones - ✔✔Chemical messangers used to regulate funtions in the body
✔✔pituitary gland - ✔✔Under the influence of the hypothalamus, it regulates growth and
controls other endocrine glands.
✔✔thyroid - ✔✔produces hormones which control metabolism
✔✔Cyanosis - ✔✔common sign of congenital heart disease, a bluish discoloration of
the skin from poor circulation / inadequate oxygenation of the blood
✔✔T lymphocytes - ✔✔AKA T cells. they are involved in fighting specific pathogens in
the body.
✔✔B lymphocytes - ✔✔AKA B cells, Once B cells have been activated by a pathogen,
they form plasma cells that produce antibodies.

✔✔pott's fracture - ✔✔ankle fracture effecting one or both malleoli
✔✔whiplash - ✔✔an injury to the cervical vertebrae and their supporting structures due
to a sudden acceleration - deceleration
✔✔When is all testing besides AF ROM and neuro contraindicated in whiplash -
✔✔Acute stage, grade 2 or above

which can lead to pulmonary embolism

that traveled from elsewhere through the bloodstream
✔✔TOS - ✔✔compression of the brachial plexus
✔✔TOS compression sites - ✔✔between clivical and first rib, anterior and middle
scalenes, or coricoid process and pec minor.
