⩥ pain originates from the. Answer: CNS and/or PNS
⩥ nociceptors. Answer: specialized nerve endings that are designed to
detect painful sensations; are located primarily in skin, joints, connective
tissue, muscle, thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic viscera
⩥ nociceptors carry pain signals to the CNS by. Answer: sensory fibers:
A-delta and C fibers
⩥ A-delta fibers. Answer: quick, sharp pain; myelinated, larger nerve
fibers
⩥ C fibers. Answer: long, dull pain; unmyelinated, smaller nerve fibers;
slower transmission
, ⩥ phases of nociception. Answer: transduction, transmission, perception,
modulation
⩥ nociception: transduction (1). Answer: injured tissue releases
chemicals that propagate pain message; action potential moves along an
afferent fiber to the spinal cord
⩥ nociception: transmission (2). Answer: the pain impulse moves from
the spinal cord to the brain
⩥ nociception: perception (3). Answer: conscious awareness of painful
sensation
⩥ nociception: modulation (4). Answer: neurons from brain stem release
neurotransmitters that block the pain impulse; slows processing of pain
⩥ nociceptive processing. Answer: protective and can be a warning
signal for injury; typically predictable and time limited based on the
extent of the injuries
⩥ nociceptive processing examples. Answer: skinned knee, kidney
