The Spine Anatomy ppt

Topic: The Spine Anatomy

Subject: Technical English for Nutrition. Teacher: Carlos A. Contreras.

Today’s Session September 19th

• Greetings
• Topic: The Lumbar Region

• Objective
• Warm up
• Content development
• Class activity
• Draw the lumbar spine and give shorts descriptions
• Wrap up “What did you learn?”

Objective:

• Be able to identify the different parts of the spine and their respective names and functions.

CEPHALIC REGION:

• The cephalon or cephalic region refers to the head. This area is further differentiated into the cranium (skull), facies (face), frons (forehead), oculus (eye area), auris (ear), bucca (cheek), nausus (nose), oris (mouth), and mentis (chin). The neck area is called the cervicis or cervical region.

The Lumbar region

• The lumbar region of the spine, more commonly known as the lower back, consists of five vertebrae labeled L1 through L5.

The Lumbar region

• The lumbar region is situated between the thoracic, or chest, region of the spine, and the sacrum. The lumbar spine typically has a slight inward curve known as lordosis.

Anatomy curves

There are only 3 vertebrate that have their own names. These are: C1: Atlas C2: Cervical C7: Permanent vertébrate Curves names : Cervical: Lordosis Thoracic Cifosis Lumbar: Lordosis Sacro y cocyx: cifosis.

Common regions

• Cervical and lumbar regions can be moved and have the same swing (giro)
• Lumbar region
• Thoraric &Sacro and Coccyx

Interesting facts!!!

Did you know?

• We are born with only curve, that is, “CIFOSIS”. It is the one found in the Lumbar and Sacro & coccyx.
• All movable vertebrates are likely to be injured.
• All nervous injuries are known as “Nueropatias”

• The lumbar region consists of five vertebrae labeled L1 through L5.

• . The lumbar region typically has a slight inward curve known as lordosis.

• The Lower back region contains large muscles that support the back and allow for movement in the trunk of the body
• These muscles can spasm or become or become strained, which is Common cause of Lower back pain

• The two lowest segments of the lumbar spine, L4-L5 and L5-S1, carry out the most weight and have the most movement, making the area prone to injury.

• In between vertebrae are spinal discs, which cushion the joints of the spine and provide support.

• They serve as shock absorbers and help facilite movement of the spine.

• Discs in the lumbar region of the spine are most likely to Herniated or degenerate which can cause pain in the Lower back.

• Or radiating pain to the legs and feet.

• The spinal cord travels from the base of the skull to the joint at T12-L1

• At this segment, nerve roots branch out from the spinal cord, running from the Lower back, through the back of the leg, and down at the toes.

• Some Lower back conditions may compress these nerve roots, resulting in pain that radiates to the Lower back to the Lower extremeties, known as the radiculopathy.

Laboratory II

• Create a "rotafolio"
• include a cover page, introduction, 1 general objective, 2 specific objectives, topic development and conclusion.
• Ilustrate the spine regions using drawings and labeling each vertebrate.
• Use technical vocabulary and expressions presented in class
• Use your creativity
• Socialize the activity on October 10th in class.

Evaluation criteria:

• Creativity
• Content
• Pronunciation and fluency at the moment of socializing the activity
• Teamwork
• It is worth 100%
