- 13what are pain receptors1. response to the peripheral structures of the body
2. influenced by personal values, beliefs, traditions
3. felt consciously through the CNS to the cortex - 14compare and contrast deep pain vs superficial paindeep- unmylientated B and C fibers, slow conduction, numerous synapse, deep pressure
Superficial- mylinated A-delta fibers, minimal synapses, sharp and well localized
Same- types of pain, physiotherapy assistants see clients that come to the clinic with both, unpleasant sensory, both lead to chronic pain - 15Illustrate the Pain cycle 5 different levels1. pain
2. guarding
3. muscle spasm

5. physical/psychological dysfunction - 16what is the pain assessment used for?assess the level of pain and individual is experiencing through: charts, analogues, questionnaires, body diagrams

2. enkophalins
3. norephinephrine
4. endorphins - 20Define the Pain Gate theoryMelzack and Wall-1965
-At the spinal cord level stimulation is transmitted through c fibers. When the gate is open the pain is transmitted, when the gate is closed (stimulation of A delta) the pain is not transmitted - 21Define the Central Biasing TheoryThe thalamus and brainstem affect the dorsal horn gating with release of encephalin, works with conjunction with the pain gate way
- 22Explain the Beta Endorphin Medicationmedication that the body makes through itself it is like the use of Morphine, anterior pituitary gland releases endogenous opoid, hypothalamus releases beta-endoyphine, and medulla releases dynophrin
- 23Define TENSTranscutaneous electrical nervous stimulation
- 24what is Tens used for?-Non addictive way to decrease pain
-relax the area that is hurting
- prevent the onset of chronic pain - 25Name the 3 types of Tens that are used in Physiotherapy1. conventional
