Also note the one recurrent theme that is most significant in the recognition of carbon monoxide poisoning-headache, dizziness and nausea. These 'flu like' symptoms are often mistaken for a real case of the flu and can result in delayed or misdiagnosed treatment.
What is the golgi tendon organ? Golgi tendon organ are placed where the muscles fibers of the skeletal muscles join the tendons. Golgi tendon organ is composed of nerve tissue and collagen strands. Also known as neurotendinous organ or neurotendious spindle, it is a type of proprioceptive sensory receptive organ.
Note: Locations of neurons within spinal cord are not meant to be anatomically accurate. The Golgi tendon organ is involved in a spinal reflex known as the autogenic inhibition reflex (Figure 2.3). When tension is applied to a muscle, the Group Ib fibers that innervate the Golgi tendon organ are activated.
