Question
Answer
Referred pain   show
🗑
Visceral pain   show
🗑
show a state of being or existence above and beyond the limits of material experience  
🗑
Etiology of pain: Peripheral   show
🗑
show results from malfunctioning nerves in the CNA (spinal cord injury pain, MS)  
🗑
Etiology of pain: sympathetically maintained pain   show
🗑
Pain threshold   show
🗑
Pain tolerance   show
🗑
Hyperalgesia and Hyperpathia   show
🗑
Allodynia   show
🗑
show an unpleasant sensation which may resemble prickling, itching, burning, or electrical shock  
🗑
show Transduction Transmission Modudulation Perception--The physiological system by which one feels the sensation of pain.  
🗑
show Tissue Damage, release of chems (prostaglandins), they release stimulate pain receptors (nociceptors), painful stimuli causes movement of ions across cell membranes. NSAIDS work well at this stage by blocking prostaglandins and dec movement of ions.  
🗑
Transmission   show
🗑
show Brain signals back with the release of opioids, serotonin and nerepinephrine. Antidepressants work well at this stage.  
🗑
Perception   show
🗑
Gate theory of pain   show
🗑
Assessisng pain   show
🗑
Pain management   show
🗑
Preemptive analgesia   show
🗑
show 1-3 non opioid analgesic is appropriate. 4-6 weak opioid (codeine, tramadol) or a combo of opioid and nonopioid med. 7-10 strong opiates (morphine, fentanyl)  
🗑
Equianalgesic dosing   show
🗑
Coanalgesics (aka adjuvant)   show
🗑
show message, heat/cold app, acupressure, contralateral stimulations, immobilization, TENS, cognitive behavioral distraction, relaxation, repatterned thinking, coping, spiritual  
🗑
show Full agonist, mixed agonist-antagonist, and partial agonist  
🗑
show bind tightly to receptor sites (morphine)  
🗑
Mixed agonist-antagonist   show
🗑
Partial agonist   show
🗑
show patient controlled analgesia, minimizes roller coast effct of peaks of sedation. conduct assessment every 2-4 hours.  
🗑
show Administering opioid with nonopioid analgesics for severe pain experiences  
🗑
The nurse must frequently assess a client experiencing pain. When assessing the intensity of the pain, the nurse should:   show
🗑
The client tells the nurse about a burning sensation in the epigastric area. The nurse should describe this type of pain as:   show

🗑
Nurses working with clients in pain need to recognize and avoid common misconceptions and myths about pain. In regards to the pain experience, which of the following is correct?   show
🗑
Upon entering the room, the nurse discovers that the client is experiencing acute pain. An expected assessment finding for this client is:   show
🗑
The client will be going home on medication administered through a PCA (patient-controlled analgesia) system. To assist the family members with an understanding of how this therapy works, the nurse explains that the client:   show
🗑
show The gate theory suggests that cutaneous stimulation activates larger, faster-transmitting A-beta sensory nerve fibers.decreases pain transmission thru small-diameter A-delta and C fibers. A back massage is nursing inte based on the gate-control theory.  
🗑
show To determine the quality of the client’s pain the nurse might say, “What does your discomfort feel like?” It is more accurate to have clients describe the pain in their own words whenever possible.  
🗑
The nurse recognizes opiods are used to contol pain at this process of nociception.   show
🗑
show Can occur due to excessive fluid intake.  
🗑
show difficulty or pain in urinating  
🗑
A client in the hospital has an indwelling urinary catheter, and the nurse is instructing the nursing assistant in the appropriate care to provide. The nurse teaches the assistant to:   show
🗑
The nurse recognizes that changes in elimination occur with the aging process. An expected change in bowel elimination is which of the following?   show

🗑
A 6-month-old infant has severe diarrhea. The major problem associated with severe diarrhea is:   show
🗑
