Listing Systems Outcomes ● Define and utilize Cartesian Coordinate Systems to describe position and movement ● Review anatomical planes and define movement within planes ● Introduction of Chiropractic Listing Systems ○ ○ ○ International Standard National Cartesian Coordinate System ● A system used to specify the location of a point or object in a plane or 3dimension space Cartesian Coordinate System ● Applied to the body in anatomical position to describe motion, posture, alignment Axes ● y-axis ○ ○ Superior/Inferior Axial or vertical axis ● X-axis ○ ○ Right/Left axis Horizontal axis ● Z-axis ○ ○ Anterior/Posterior axis Sagittal axis Motion - AKA Displacement ● Linear (Translation) ○ Every point in the given object moves the same distance in a given direction Motion - AKA Displacement ● Angular (Rotation) ○ ○ The circular motion of an object around a central, fixed point The primary movements of every vertebrae are considered rotations Planes Planes ● Frontal/Coronal ○ ○ Divides body into anterior and posterior XY plane ● Sagittal ○ ○ Divides body into left and right YZ plane ● Transverse ○ ○ Divides body into superior and inferior ZX plane Movements Within Planes Orthogonal System - Right Hand Rule Orthogonal System – Global Spinal Movements Movement Flexion Extension Right lateral flexion Left lateral flexion Right axial rotation Left axial rotation Orthogonal Description Plane of Motion Intersegmental Alignment • Malpositions • Mal (bad) + position • Describes abnormal or altered position of vertebra • How do we find the altered position of a vertebra? Describe the malposition Describe the malposition Describe the malposition Describe the malposition Describe the malposition Describe the malposition Movement Restrictions ● The orthogonal system can be used to describe restrictions ● Restrictions are opposite of malpositions ● How do we find restrictions? Describe the restrictions Describe the restrictions Describe the restrictions Describe the restrictions Describe the restrictions Describe the restrictions Standard Listings AKA Palmer/Gonstead Listings • • • • Point of reference – spinous process 1st letter – posteriority 2nd letter – rotation 3rd letter – later flexion (wedging) National Listings • • • • Point of reference – vertebral body 1st letter – rotation 2nd letter – posteriority 3rd letter – wedging
