Q

How does hyperalgesia, analgesia, allodynia effect pain and the stimulus curve

A
  1. hyperalgesia - increase responsiveness, shift curve to the left
  2. Analgesia- decreases response, shiftst curve to the right and flattens it
  3. Allodynia - innocuous stimuli begin to elicit pain, shifts curve to the farthest left

Activity at opioid receptors located in the CNS & peripheral sites (ganglia & peripheral nerve endings)
3 classes of opioid receptors:

  2. Partial Agonists
    Do not have full intrinsic activity at the mu receptor
    Buprenorphine
  3. Mixed Agonist-Antagonists
    Act as agonists at some receptors and antagonists at others
    Affinity & intrinsic activity at the receptor site may vary
    Butorphanol
  4. Antagonists

    Naloxone
82
Q

What is the pathway of desensitization of nerve blocks

A

B are desensitized first, then C, then A-delta, then A-beta. A-alpha are the largest nerves, so motor is blocked last/not at all. Re-sensitization happens in reverse order
