______________ = absence of pain in the presence of a normally painful stimulus
analgesia
_________________ = unpleasant painful abnormal sensation whether evoked or spontaneous
dysesthesia
_______________ = heightened response to normally painful stimulus
hyperalgesia
_______________ = pain in the distribution of peripheral nerves
neuralgia
________________ = abnormal distrubance in the fx of a nerve
neuropathy

T/F: poorly controlled acute pain may lead to chronic pain states
TRUE
acute pain is _____________, and lasts ____________
self-limited; 1-14 days
_______________ & ______________ are types of nociceptive pain
somatic and visceral
somatic pain comes from tissue damage –> activation of _____________ fibers
a delta; C fibers
_________________ pain is described as well localized and sharp
somatic (nociceptive)
_________________ pain is described as dull, cramping, squeezing, vague, and poorly localized
visceral (nociceptive)
what type of pain is often accompanied by ANS reflexes like N/V/D, HR, BP increase
visceral (nociceptive)
____________ pain is caused by damage to CNS or PNS nerves and is due to dysfunction of the CNS (spontaneous excition) –> abnormal processing of painful stimuli
neuropathic
what pain is described as burning, tingling, shocklike
neuropathic
what are the non-nociceptive pains
neuropathic
T/F: chronic pain often exhibits more than 1 type of pain classification
TRUE
T/F: opioids normally manage neuropathic pain really well
false; normally does not work on neuropathic pain
what are the four processes of somatic nociceptive pain
- transduction
_______________ = transformation of a noxious stimuli into an action potential
transduction
______________ = process by which an action potential is conducted from the periphery to the CNS
transmission
________________ = the recognition of pain signal from various areas of the brain
perception
