36
Q

define physiological pain?

Pain proportional to the intensity of noxious stimul - good as it protects against further injury

49
Q

describe the mechanism of action of opioids?

Q

What are all opioid receptors?

  • Promotes opening of potassium channels leaving cell
  • inhibit opeing of voltage gated calcium channals
52
Q

What effects do opioids have?

A
  • differential disribution of receptors results in varied response

  • depression of cough reflex
  • pupilliary constriction
54
Q

what are the effects of opiods on the GIT?

55
Q

T/F opioids cause histamine release?

A

Truee

56
Q

What effect does Opioids have on smooth muscle?

A
  • Othere than bronchi and GIT it has little effect although can cause spasms in uterus/bladder
57
