Question
Answer
type of pain that respond well to anlagesics, anti-inflamm and opioids   noceceptive pain (somatic, visceral)  
🗑
neuropathic pain responds poorly to, more predictable to   poorly to analgesics, anti-inflamm, opioids. predictable response to anticonvulsants, antidepressants, antidysrhythmics  
🗑
WHO analgesic step 1   NSAIDs, acetaminophen, non-opioid analgesics  
🗑
WHO analgesic step 2   Step 1 plus mild-moderate opioids  
🗑
WHO analgesic step 3   Step1, 2 plus moderate-severe opioids (adjuvants can be used on any step)  
🗑
constitutive COX-1 normal housekeeping functions   protect GI mucosa, promote platelet activation, RBF  
🗑
inducible COX-2 location, functions   in CNS or periphery. Mediate pain, mediate inflammation  
🗑
MOA acetaminophen non-opioid analgesic   CNS COX inhibitor . . .no COX-1 inhib effects . . .antipyretic and analgesic  
🗑
What are the COX-1 inhibited SEs   gastric mucosal irritation, impaired RBF/urine production, since thromboxane inhibitied-->de-activated platelets  
🗑
Acetaminophen / ETOH ADR MOA   acetaminophen metab induced by ETOH @ P450-->toxic metabolite, whereby gluthione enzyme normally mebtabolizes to non-toxic metabolite. The gluthione enzyme action impaired, leaving toxic metabolites  
🗑
NSAID - C0X-1,2 - irreversible   ASA, analgesic and antiinflamm,  
🗑
ASA SEs   COX-1 SE (GI, renal impair, platelet deactivation x 7-8 days. Note is qualitative platelet defect, not quantitative as with thrombocytopenia  
🗑
Unique uses for ASA   cardioprotection, ischemic prevention for stroke (primary, secondary, TIAs)  
🗑
ASA and Reyes   interacts with viral infections (varicella, influenza)-->fatty degen of liver-->encephalopathy  
🗑
salicylism   ASA overdose  
🗑
ASA (NSAISs possibly)hypersensitivity syndrome   NON Ag/Ab anaphylactoid-type rxn starts as tinnitus, asthma sxs, hives, laryngeal edema, angioneurotic edema. PTS SHOULD AVOID ALL NSAIDs in the future. can take acetaminophen and non-acetyl-salicylates  
🗑
true ASA allergy is rare, these pts can take   NSAIDs and non-salicylates  
🗑
take home message non-acetyl salicylate SEs   less platelet de-activation, less GI intolerance, less renal impairment  
🗑
take home message COX-2 specific inhibitors   may have increased thrombotic events (non-cox-1 mediated)as they are predisposed to increased clotting. renal effects same. decreased GI SEs, decreased COX-1 platelet activation. ZERO cardioprotection  
🗑
adjuvant drug classes for neurpathy   analgesics, TCA, atypical antidepressant, anticonvulsants, local anesthetics, antidysrhythmics  
🗑
break through pain   always cover for this possibility  
🗑
consitpation   anticipate, treat prophylactically, avoid anticholinergics if possible  
🗑
sedation   common during early phase of pain relief tx, avoid CNS depressants when possible  
🗑
nausea/vomiting   codiene worst, worse during early phase tx  
🗑
itching   opioids cause non-allergic release of histamine  
🗑
urinary retention   caused by opioid MOA, anticipate in pts predisposed to BPH, avoid anticholinergics if possible  
🗑
orthostatic hypoTN   monitor ambulatory pts  
🗑


   

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.
