The document discusses various topics related to spinal instability, neuropathology, and chiropractic including: theories of spinal instability proposed by Korr and Sandoz; phases of the Vertebral Subluxation Complex model and Kirkaldy Willis model; structural anomalies that can cause instability; effects of prolonged immobilization and static posture; functional stabilizing systems of the spine; indications of stress x-rays in confirming instability; and signs and symptoms associated with myelopathy, vertebral artery insufficiency, neuroimmune responses, and neuropathology.

Etiology of instability: trauma, congenital changes, postural insults
Other theories associated with VSC Phase 2: VBI & Instability Four components of the Sandoz theory of immobilization: articular overstress, insufficiency and instability, episodic fixation, Structural anomaly that causes instability: Down’s, retrolisthesis VSC phase of instability: Phase 2 Prolonged immobilization leads to: permeant impairment or stabilization Name the three phases of the Kirkaldy Willis model: Dysfunction, Unstable, Stabilization VSC phase associated with Immobilization Degeneration: Phase 3 (Sandoz-phase 4) Instability confirmed by: Stress x-ray Use it or: lose it 2 functional stabilizing systems of the spine: local and regional Local: multifidus, rotat, intertransverse Regional: abdominals, QL, intercostalis, The motion that decreases the fatigue of intrinsic muscles and lowers threshold of buckling: vibration Primary proponents of Spinal buckling: Triono Deformity occurs with prolong static posture: Creep Can alter the dynamics of a buckled spinal region: Adjustment Neuroimmune AKA: neurodystrophy, neurodystrophic Chiropractic technique associated with myelopathy: HIO/ UC Type of herniation is associated with myelopathy: Central Transport system for the proteins: Macromolecule transport Prolonged bombardment of the dorsal horn will lead to: sensitization/peripheral modulization Age group most associated with having VBI: 31-35 OR younger than 45 Neuropathology is closely associated with this theory: AXT The procedure if a patient presents with s/s of a VBI post adjustment: STOP, OBSERVE, REFER Primary indicator of SDF in kids: torticollis This will be demonstrated with chronic neuropathology: anesthesia S/s associated with myelopathy: UMNL, LMNL @ site of lesion Persons associated with myelopathy: BJ The change noted in action potentials with nerves demonstrating neuropathology: decreased AP This hormone is increased during neuroimmune hypothesis: Cortisol Degeneration associated with AXT aberration: Wallerian S/S associated with AXT aberration: Pain moves Three stages of GAS: Alarm, Resistance, Exhaustion/Adaptation Lab finding associated with Neuroimmune hypothesis: IgG Hormone associated with AXT: NGF S/S neuropathology: LMNL Person with neuroimmune: Hans Selye Primary person with neuropathology: DD Palmer
