Motor Functions. The phrenic nerve provides motor innervation to the diaphragm; the main muscle of respiration. As the phrenic nerve is a bilateral structure, each nerve supplies the ipsilateral side of the diaphragm (i.e. the hemi-diaphragm on the same side as itself).
Summary Information: Phrenic Nerve. Phrenic Nerve: The phrenic nerve is a paired nerve that arises from some of the spinal nerves of the cervical region (C3-C5). The phrenic nerve innervates contractions of the diaphragm, which is vital to respiration. It also innervates some sensation to the chest and upper abdomen.Conditions that afflict the phrenic nerve include hiccups, trauma, muscular dystrophy, tumor, neuropathy, and infection.he phrenic nerve innervates contractions of the diaphragm, which is vital to respiration.
