Q

Afferent

A

body to brain

17
Q

Efferent

A

brain to body

18
Q

Which component of pain perception can be affected by modalities such as cold application?

A

Pain tolerance

19
Q

What are the superficial receptors?

A

Thermal receptors
Merkel’s discs
Meissner’s corpuscles
Pacinian corpuscles
Ruffini corpuscles
Nociceptors

20
Q

Merkel’s discs

A

react to low threshold mechanical pressure

adapt slowly

21
Q

Meissner’s corpuscles

A

react to low threshold mechanical pressure

adapt rapidly

22
Q

Pacinian corpuscles

A

deep in skin

react to HIGH levels of mechanical pressure

23
Q

Ruffini corpuscles

A

stretching of skin and changes in joint position (proprioceptive)

24
Q

Pain control theory targets what?

A

perception of pain

25
Q

Gate control theory

A

distract from pain sensations with another sensation

26
Q

Gate control theory -ascending

A

A-beta = muscles
small diameter traffic = pain stimuli

To decrease nociceptive stimuli:
- stimulate A-beta = closing small diameter traffic

27
Q

Gate control theory -descending

A

gate closes in ascending and opioids are released to control pain perception

28
Q

Electrical stimulation does what?

A

overloads the senses

29
Q

Local anesthetics

A

cause loss of sensation in the area (ex. biofreeze)

30
Q

What is the highest level of regulation?

A

licensure

31
Q

Certification =

A

do you know what you are supposed to know

32
Q

Registration

A

register with state before practicing

33
Q

Blanket prescription

A

assigned to no one
