A

spinothalamic tract STT

70
Q

describe the STT pathway

A
  • cross midline at the spinal cord level at the anterior white commissure

71
Q

describe the pathway of spinomesencephalic tract

A

ascends to the midbrain and terminates in PAG

72
Q

A

spinomesencephalic tract

73
Q

describe the spinoreticular tract pathway

A

ascend to the medullary reticular formation and to the pontine reticular formation

74
Q

this tract allows for suppression or facilitation of pain and is involved in the motivational, emotional, and unpleasant components of pain

A

spinoreticular tract

75
Q
  • max von frey
  • individual pain receptors transmit signals to specific pain center in brain- which sends back instructions for motor reponse
  • theory is based on assumption that there is pain system
A

specificity theory

76
Q
  • this theory fails to acknowledge the psycholgical aspect of pain or the role of prior experience in making us hypersensitive to pain stimuli
    • there is no pain system
A

specificity theory

77
Q
  • Nafe and Scheider
  • pain receptors are shared with other bodily systems
  • the brain only get a pain signal if combo of stimuli formed in the spinal cord, leads to implementation of preset pattern of response
A

pattern theory

78
Q

this theory underestimates the role of the brain - it is not just receiver of messages from receptors.

A

pattern theory

79
Q
  • melzack and wall
  • all peripheral sensations are transmitted by peripheral nerve stimulation
  • this stimulation is transmitted to the spinal cord and if threshold is met it is transmitted to the brain for processing.
  • pain sensation is carried by nociceptive pain fibers- a-delta and c-fibers
  • fibers go to dorsal horn of spinal cord- stimulate second order neuron, travel spinothalamic tract to the brain for interpretation
  • if touch is added we stimulate a-beta fibers which stimulate inhibitory interneuron in the dorsal horn- which diminshies pain sensation - this is why we squeeze or rub
A

gate theory

80
Q

this theory makes sense but does not explain whose in which nociceptor are not stimulated and yet a person still experiences pain (phantom pain)

A

gate control theory

81
Q

this theory states that pain inhibits pain- two noxious stimuli are applied at the same time- the second in the same area but different spot- the second stimulus is processed by the dorsal horn and can inhibit the first noxious stimuli.

A

conditioned pain modulation

82
Q

emphasizes the role of the brain, shifting focus to components of the central nervous system- pain is the output of the brain, there are multiple influences on pain outside of peripheral nociceptive stimulation

A

neuromatrix of pain

83
Q

emphasizes the brains decision to create a pain sensation and diminishes the input from peripheral tissue. peripheral noxious stimulation still plays a large role in creating of pain but it does not provide the. entire story

A

neuromatrix of pain

84
Q

explains phantom limb pain, fibromyalgia, NSLBP, and other chronic pain conditions where nociceptive stimulation is not present but the sensation of pain persists

A

neuromatrix of pain

A

inflammation

93
Q

during what phase does hemostasis occur?

A

inflammatory phase

94
Q
  • responsible for stopping bleeding at the injury site
  • platelets adhere to exposed collagen and form a clot that stops the bleeding- they play a role in later stages of healing due to growth factors they produce
A

hemostasis

95
Q

edema continues to accumulate in the injured area due to extravasation, which is movement of fluid from the blood vessels into the extravascular space- what phase

A

inflammation phase

96
Q

distention of the local tissues and irritation of the free nerve endings in the injured area can result in pain- what phase is this?

A

inflammatory phase

97
Q

tissue distension creates space for the influx of phagocytic cells and proteins that set the stage for later phases of healing- what phase is this?

A

inflammatory phase

98
Q

the function of this phase is to repair the defect

A

proliferation

99
Q

this phase can last several weeks, depending on the injury- fibroblasts and keratinocytes predominate- what phase is this?

A

proliferation

100
Q
  • in this phase fibroblasts are attracted to the wound by macrophages in the inflammatory phase
A

proliferation phase

101
Q
  • these typicaly arrive in the area 48-72 hours after injury
    • they lay down collagen and elastin which replace the tissue that was damaged during inflammatory process
A
