68C Cranial Nerves
12 Cranial Nerves
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Cranial Nerve I OLFACTORY | from nose to brain - sense of smell |
Cranial Nerve II OPTIC | from eye to brain - vision |
Cranial Nerve III OCULOMOTOR | from brain to eye muscles - eye movements, extraoccular muscles, pupillary control( pupillary constriction) |
Cranial Nerve IV TROCHLEAR | from brain to external eye muscles - down and inward movement of eye |
Cranial Nerve V TRIGEMINAL Ophthalmic branch Maxiallry branch Mandibular branch | from skin and mucous membranes of head to brain; from teeth to brain; from brain to chewing muscles - sensations of face, scalp and teeth; chewing movements |
Cranial Nerve VI ABDUCENS | from brain to external eye muscles - lateral movement of eye |
Cranial Nerve VII FACIAL | from taste buds of tongue to brain; from brain to facial muscles - sense of taste on anterior two thirds of tongue; contraction of muscles of facial expression |
Cranial Nerve VIII ACOUSTIC (VESTIBULOCOCHLEAR) | from ear to brain - hearing; sense of balance (equilibrium) |
Cranial Nerve IX GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL | from throat and taste buds of tongue to brain; from brain to throat muscles and salivary glands - sensation of throat, taste, swallowing movements, gag reflex, taste posterior one third of tongue, secretion of saliva |
Cranial Nerve X VAGUS | from throat, larynx and organs in the thoracic and abdominal cavities to brain - sensations of throat, larynx and thoracic and abdominal organs, swallowing, voice production, slowing of heartbeat, acceleration of peristalsis |
Cranial Nerve XI SPINAL ACCESSORY | from brain to certain shoulder and neck muscles - shoulder movements(trapezius muscles) and turning movements of head (sternocleidomastoid muscles) |
Cranial Nerve XII HYPOGLOSSAL | from brain to muscles of tongue - tongue movements |

1. The cranial nerves are tested in the following ways | I Olfactory- id of common odors II Optic- testing of visual acuity and visual field III Oculomotor- testing ability of eyes to move together in all directions, testing pupillary response 1. |
2. The cranial nerves are tested in the following ways | IV Trochlear- tested w/oculomotor; testing eye movements down/inward V Trigeminal- jaw strength and sensation of face, corneal reflex 2. |
3. The cranial nerves are tested in the following ways | VI Abducens- tested w/ oculomotor; testing eye movements VII Facial- ability of face to move in symmetry, ID of tastes VIII Acoustic (Vestibulocochlear)- testing of hearing through whisper or other means and checking equilibrium and balance 3. |
4. The cranial nerves are tested in the following ways | IX Glossopharyngeal- Id of tastes X Vagus- gag reflex, movement of uvula and soft palate XI Spinal Accessory- shoulder and neck movement XII Hypoglossal- Tonue motion 4. |
