The phrenic nerve is a mixed motor/sensory nerve that courses through the neck and thorax to innervate the diaphragm. Arises from the ventral rami of the C3, C4 and C5 nerve roots, part of the cervical plexus.he phrenic nerve is the sole motor supply to each hemidiaphragm. It also provides sensory supply to: 1  diaphragm (except the most peripheral diaphragm, which is supplied by intercostal nerves). 2  mediastinal pleura. 3  pericardium. 4  central parts of diaphragmatic pleura and peritoneum.
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).
