Question
Answer
PAIN!   an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage Sensory dimension and a Affective-motivational dimension(feelings and emotions)  
🗑
Mediators of the Response to Injury and Pain   Past experience Family experience Culture Expectations Context in which injury occurs or pain is experienced  
🗑
Pain as a warning or symptom   the pain that occurs right after a sprain or fracture or similar injury  
🗑
Pin as a disease entity   When pain restricts you from carrying on with life  
🗑
Accute Pain   protection from injury or signal that something is wrong sudden onset and results in muscle spasm and guarding, corresponds to the events of the accute inflammatory response and usually resolves <6weeks  
🗑
Persistent Pain   Lingering or reoccuring pain symptom of a treatable condition several causative factors  
🗑
Sources of Persistent Pain   Rest-reinjury cycle inaccurate or incomplete diagnosis and evaluation myofaschial pain somatazation  
🗑
Myofascial pain somatization   physical (somatic) manifestation of psychological dysfunction  
🗑
Chronic Pain   Pain lasting beyond usefulness No identifiable and treatable causes Disease entity unto itself Large psychosomatic component  
🗑
When is pain persistent vs. chronic   No clear distinction(chronic) persistent pain is more treatable Chronic pain seems to defy intervention(nothing seems to help)  
🗑
Referred Pain   Pain that is not perceived at the site of trauma or injury  
🗑
Sources of referred pain   Dermatome, Myotome, Scleratome  
🗑
Scleratome   area of bone innervated by a specific nerve root  
🗑
P,Q,R,S,T (EKG wave)   can be used as a guid for the ecaluation of pain  
🗑
P (EKG wave)   provocation-sudden onset or insidious  
🗑
insidious   the cause of w hich is unknown, usually delayed onset  
🗑
Q (EKG wave)   Quatlity- aching, burning, sharp, dull, stabbing  
🗑
R (EKG wave)   where? radiating-dermatome, Pattern?referral-related vicseral pathology (example LBP-colon CA)  
🗑
S (EKG wave)   severity-pain scale  
🗑
T (EKG wave)   timing- when was pain first experienced, is ther a particular activity or time of the day when it is more severe  
🗑
Free Nerve endings   nocieceptors found in deep and superficial tissues responsible for pain sensation  
🗑
1st order Neurons   Motor(efferent)-A alpha Sensory (afferent)-A beta, A-delta, C  
🗑
SAID   sensory afferent in dorsal  
🗑
MEOV   Motor Efferent out ventrial  
🗑
Primary afferent fibers   A-delta, C  
🗑
A delta as a primary afferent fiber   Myelinated Sharp and pricking pain (short duration) Mechanical and temperature sensation Conduction velocities(4-30 m/sec)  
🗑
C fiber as a primary afferent fiber   unmylelinated burning pain(longer duration) mechanical and temperature sensation Dule and diffuse conduction velocities (.5-2 m/sec)  
🗑
Pain Pathway   receptor(nocieceptor), primary afferent(cfiber and adelta), dorsal root ganglia, synapses in dorsal horn then contralaterally forms the lateral spinothalmic tract(second order neuron) synapse in the thalmus(third order neuron) ends in sensory cortex  
🗑
Gate Theory of Pain components   a beta fibers, a delta and c fibers, substantia glelantinosa, transmissioncell, enkephalin interneuron  
🗑
Substantia glelatenosa   influences impulses that are propagated into the 2nd order neuron (T cells) through inhibition Gate keeper!!  
🗑
Gate theory Concepts   perception and alleviation of pain is dependent on interation between larn and small diameter first order afferent input into the dorsal horn Large fiber input excites T cells and SG, resulting in inhibition of noxious out put to t cells  
🗑
Gate theory small fibers   noxious input input inhibitts SG and exvites t cells, resulting in noxious input being transmitted from the t cell to high centers  
🗑
Gate theory of pain enkephalin interneuron   a beta synapse with 2nd order and enkephalin interneuron interneuron synapses at synapse between adelta/cfiber and second order afferent neuron(dorsal root ganglia)  
🗑
Gate thoery of pain enkephaline interneuron2   Enkephalin is released, blocking substance P and other facilitory transmitter substances from cuasing depolarization of end order neuron "pain message" is blocked befor reaching higher centers(the t cells or the DRG)  
🗑
Enkephalin   an endogenous opiod with a half life of 2 minutes  
🗑
Descending Inhibition Level II   Central biasing pain stimulus to PAG vi second order neurons PAG synapses with raphe nucleus  
🗑
PAG   synapses with raphe nucleus relases enkephiens Pariaqueductal gray area  
🗑
Desending Inhibition Level II after raphe nucleus   from raphe nucleus, axons decsend via dorsolateral pathway to synapse with the enkephalin internuron at segmental level(seratonin is the facilitory transmitter substance in pathway) enkephalin blocks 2nd order receptors for substance P  
🗑
Level III control of pain   betta endorphines input to reticular formations via spinoreticular tract results in RF stimulation of the hypothalmus  
🗑
beta-endorphins   endogenous opiate with half life of 4 hrs large peptide with same structure as morphine 100 times more potent than  
🗑
Level III pain control after stimulation of hypothalmus   projections from the hypothalmus to the raphe nucleus release beta-endorphin, resulting in longer term activation of descending pathway beta-endorphin stimulates raphe nucleus-enkephallin interneuron-analgesia at segmental level system  
🗑
What decides which level of pain control is used?   the more pain you have the high the level is used-you may not have enough pain for your body to activate level III pain control  
🗑
When are b-endorphins released   during exercise  
🗑
cortizol   muscle break down not build up  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
