She was in the driver’s seat and was hit from behind. Apparently, just before the moment of impact she was turning to tell something to her daughter who was sitting in a child’s seat in the back of the car (the daughter is fine!). Your client’s complaints involve the entire spine (cervical, thoracic, and lumbar). The collision coupled with her body position at the point of impact, caused a sudden right lateral flexion moment throughout her entire spine. The force of such a flexion could have produced devastating results in her spinal column! Fortunately, her spinal muscles reflexively activated to decelerate the potentially injurious forces. Identify the correct muscles and contraction type that would act to decelerate right lateral flexion. A. Left quadratus lumborum, concentric B. Right external oblique, eccentric C. Left iliocostalis, concentric D. Right internal oblique, eccentric E. B and D F. None of the above • Show less
