21
Q

o A –delta for pain

A

mecahnorecptors and thermoreceptors

22
Q

o C delta for pain

23
Q

modulation of pain

A

o Amygdala + hypothalamus -> periaqueductal grey (PAG) -> RVM in lower brainstem -> spinal cord -> pain modulated

24
Q

discriminative sensation pathway

A

posteior column-medial lemnicus

25
non discriminative sensation pathway
spinothalamic tract
26
discriminative sensation | for wat?
``` fine touch (cutaneous mechano-receptors) proprioception ```
27
non discriminative sensation | for wat?
crude touch thermoception nocicpetion
28
➢ meissner’s corpuscles
vibration (superficial) | hair follicles
29
➢ merkel’s discs
pressure and texture
30
➢ pacinian corpuscles
vibration (deep
31
➢ ruffini’s corpuscles
stretch
32
small RF (receptive field)
fine tactile acuity
33
larger RF (receptive field)
less tactile acuity
34
muscle spindles
detect stretch/length of muscle
35
golgi organs
detect muscle tension
36
penile erection
parasympathetic
