Upper Cervical Instability. Ways to Identify it!
December 26, 2022

  Hello Professionally Integrated, AOMSI does NOT even come into the equation in this area of the spine. This is a paper that the authors looked at ways to identify upper cervical instability. The paper that I helped author explains a lot more in terms of what is normal stability through different ranges of motion. Most of the instability in… Read More

Instability Leading to Cervical Spondylotic Amyotrophy
November 14, 2022

  Hello Professionally Integrated! AOMSI and 25-28% really doesn’t explain much about what “instability” does physiologically. Here is a paper where the authors looked at instability and how it can affect the spinal cord leading to upper extremity weakness. As a member of the site under the tab “instability” , we have lots of papers and information and webinars about… Read More

Chiari, C1 Instability, Tethered Cord, CAUSATION, and SYMPTOMS and CLINICAL implications!
November 2, 2022

Hello professionally integrated, Here is a great paper and break down about upper cervical instability, Chiari malformation type one, causation and symptoms. This condition has been shown to occur after trauma and on this site there are other papers and videos discussing that. This is a great paper for us to be aware of as well as to share with… Read More

Injury Mechanisms Of The Ligamentous Cervical C2–C3 Functional Spinal Unit
October 17, 2022

Hello Professionally Integrated. Here is a finite element study where the authors evaluated C2-C3 during “whiplash” simulation. During the evaluation they recorder many ligamentous areas of the spine and how they react, or fail during a “whiplash” mechanism. This is important for us to know as it will only help us understand and identify common injuries in crashes that in… Read More

X-Ray Instability and Low back pain!!
October 2, 2022

Dear Professionally Integrated, Here is a video breakdown looking at “lumbar instability” and pain. This is another great paper showing why X-rays with movement are important and how abnormal movement is related to pain. The authors looked at sagittal instabilities and pain.  Take a look below at what this paper discusses and see how what we do is clinically relevant… Read More

Alar Ligaments
September 12, 2022

  Hello Professionally Integrated, Here is a paper where the authors looked at how much force it requires to completely rupture both the alar ligaments. Lots of research and literature, as well as clinical experience shows that the upper cervical spine can be damaged in trauma, especially motor vehicle crashes.

Force, Head Position, Aware/ Unaware, and WOODPECKERS!
July 14, 2022

  Dear Professionally Integrated, Here is a very interesting study that shows the link between head and neck trauma, and MTBI, and how small changes in head position can dramatically affect the structures (ligaments at different levels of the spine and bran). This is interesting to me, and I will certainly document this in many of my patients charts as… Read More

Lumbar Instability and Pain
March 28, 2022

Hello professionally integrated, Here is a paper where the authors looked at patients who were diagnosed with “discogenic pain” and evaluated them with flexion extension lumbar x-rays to determine the likelihood of instability. This paper is great to explain how abnormal movement can lead to increased pain. The authors suggest this imaging should be done on patients with “nonspecific pain”… Read More

“Low Speed” Frontal impact damages many ligaments!
February 7, 2022

Hello Professionally Integrated, This study shows that a car crash can injure different ligaments in the spine. Even “low impact” . As a provider if we take flex/ext films and mainly a digital motion Xray, we have a better chance of identifying which areas are damaged. When we do that, we can treat more effectively and better educate our patients… Read More
