1Which of the following statements regarding Pain are FALSE?
- APain warns against damage and helps animals learn that something is harmful
- BPain is an unpleasant sensory or emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage
- CPain is a combination of large amount of information, consisting mainly of bottom up (ascending) modulation
- DA patient with no connection between the thalamus and cortex will not feel pain
- EHumans and other mammals experience pain in similar areas of the brain but react/experience it differently
2What are the 3 stages of the Pain Pathway?
1. [blank_start]Afferent[blank_end] Neurons
2. [blank_start]Projection[blank_end] Neurons
3. [blank_start]Supraspinal[blank_end] Neurons- AAfferent
- BProjection
- CSupraspinal
3Which of the following are true of αδ Neurons?
- AThey are myelinated
- BThey are unmyelinated
- CThey localise pain
- DThey are not localised
- Ethermal and mechanical
- Fchemical and thermal
- Gmechanical, thermal and chemical
- HDetect very acute pain
- IHave longer transduction times
4Which of the following are true of C fibres?
- APolymodal C fibres detect chemical and thermal
- BPolymodal C fibres detect chemical, thermal and mechanical
- CSilent C fibres detect inflammation, chemical and mechanical
- DSilent C fibres detect chemical, thermal and mechanical
- EC fibres detect pain which occurs 1 minute after initiation
- FC fibres detect very acute pain
- GC fibres are myelinated
- HC fibres are unmyelinated
5Which of the following are true of the afferent neurons of the 1st stage?
- AThe body is in the dorsal horn
- BThe body is in the dorsal root ganglia
- CStimulation results in corelease of glutamate and aspartate
- DStimulation results in corelease of Substance P
- EStimulation results in corelease of Neurokinin
- FStimulation results in corelease of Bradykinin
6Fill in the blanks
The Spinothalamic tract is the major part of the 2nd stage of Nociception Pathways. The spinothalamic tract is the major [blank_start]ascending[blank_end] pathway, it originates in the [blank_start]dorsal[blank_end] horn, travels across to the [blank_start]ventral[blank_end] horn then goes up to the thalamus.
The major neurotransmitter involved is [blank_start]glutamate[blank_end]
The Spinohypothalamic tract is associated with [blank_start]neuroendocrine[blank_end] and autonomic responses
The Spinoretricular tract is involved in [blank_start]emotional[blank_end] reactions
The other tract is called the [blank_start]Spinomesencephalic[blank_end] Tract- Aascending
- Bdorsal
- Cventral
- Dglutamate
- Eneuroendocrine
- Femotional
- GSpinomesencephalic
7Fill in the blanks
The 3rd stage of nociception involves transmission from the [blank_start]Thalamus[blank_end] to the [blank_start]Cortex[blank_end]
Different areas of the cortex that are stimulated lead to different responses
These responses include; Sensory -discriminative, [blank_start]Motivational[blank_end] and [blank_start]Sensory Motor[blank_end] Integration- AThalamus
- BCortex
- CMotivational
- DSensory Motor
8Which of the following are true regarding the Gate Theory of Pain?
- ARubbing and massaging areas recently stimulated by pain will reduce the pain perceived by the brain
- BRubbing and massaging areas recently stimulated by pain will increase the pain perceived by the brain
- CA Alpha and A Beta activate inhibitory neurons which inhibit the action of A Delta and C Nerve Fibres
- DA Delta and C Nerve Fibres activate inhibitory neurons which inhibit the action of A Alpha and A Beta Nerve Fibres
- EInhibitory neurons inhibit the transmission of Small and Large Peripheral Nerve Fibres
- FInhibitory neurons ONLY inhibit the transmission of small peripheral nerve fibres
- GNoxious Stimuli are associated with A Delta and C Nerve Fibres
- HNoxious Stimuli are associated with A alpha and A Beta Nerve Fibres
- IDistractive Stimuli are associated with A Delta and C Nerve Fibres
- JDistractive Stimuli are associated with A alpha and A Beta Nerve Fibres
9Fill in the blanks
The Antinociceptor pathway is [blank_start]Descending[blank_end]
It begins at the [blank_start]supraspinal[blank_end] level and finishes in the [blank_start]dorsal[blank_end] horn- ADescending
- Bsupraspinal
- Cdorsal
10Fill in the blanks regarding the neurotransmitters of the Antinociceptive pathways
[blank_start]Seorontin[blank_end] - [blank_start]5-HT[blank_end] Receptor - [blank_start]Raphe Magnus[blank_end] Nucleus
[blank_start]Noradrenaline[blank_end] - [blank_start]Locus Ceruleus[blank_end] Nucleus- ASeorontin
- BNoradrenaline
- C5-HT
- DLocus Ceruleus
- ERaphe Magnus
11Which of the following sensitise tissues to pain? I.e. reduce the activation threshold of nociceptors
This is a direct consequence of tissue trauma and inflammation- AH+
- BK+
- CNa+
- DCl-
- EBradykinin
- FSerotonin
- GHistamine
- HCytokines
- INoradrenaline
- JAdrenaline
12Which statement is FALSE regarding Central Stimulation?
- AOccurs when lots of trauma occurs
- BResults in activation of the NMDA receptor which is usually dormant
- CResults in an expansion of receptive fields
- DCan result in Hyperalgesia
- EResults in a decrease in glutamate, aspartate and Substance P
