t/f: pain can occur with or without stimulation - Answer true
what are pain receptors called? - Answer nociceptors
which source of pain involves the skin? - Answer cutaneous
which source of pain involves ligaments, tendons, bones and nerves? - Answer deep somatic
which source of pain is from deep, internal organs? - Answer visceral
which kind of pain is felt elsewhere in the body and makes visceral pain hard to localize? -
Answer referred
which kind off pain is felt in an absent extremity as if the extremity is still there? - Answer
phantom limb
which pain theory is described as larger diameter nerve fibers (touch, temp., pressure)
overriding small diameter pain fibers? - Answer gate control theory
______ gate allows the transmission of pain fibers to ascend the spinal cord to the brain vs.
______ gate does not allow transmission - Answer open vs. closed
massage and applying pressure are examples of what theory? - Answer gate control theory
which theory explained phantom limb pain? - Answer neuromatrix theory
which theory is described as predetermined, shaped by sensory impulses throughout ones life
and includes a widely distributed neural network? - Answer neuromatrix theory
characteristic patterns of input impressed on the brain - Answer neurosignature
,how does the neuromatrix theory explain phantom limb pain? - Answer the body's
extremities are a part of the neurosignaure impressed on the body-self neuromatrix therefore
after amputation, the brain still perceives the extremities and their pain

what is the most common site for sprains? - Answer ankle
overstretching of tendons and muscle - Answer strain
what are the most common sites for strains? - Answer lower back and hamstring due to
muscle overuse

fracture where the bone protrudes outside of the body - Answer open/compound
fracture where bone fragments separate completely, are not displaced and remain beneath the
overlying tissue - Answer closed (complete)
what is considered the most serious fracture? - Answer open/compound
, risk factors:

separation of a small part of bone at site of attachment of ligament or tendon - Answer
avulsion
