upregulation Flashcards
central sensitization or wind up phenomenon leads to
In regards to treatment of pain effectiveness
nonresponsive or chronic intractable pain
central sensitization or wind up phenomenon leads to changes in nervous system
2
hyperalgesia
allodynia
when spinal neurons are subjected to repeated or high intensity nociception they become
increasingly excitable even after stimulus is removed
define
chronic maladaptive pain\neuropathic pain/wind up pain
hypersensitivity resulting from abnormal processing response in the CNS
injury or inflammation alters the chemical environment surrounding the nociceptor how?
sensitization increased intensity of noxious stimulation
- axonal sprouting and neuroma formation
- upregulation of Na Channels
- down regulation of K channels
increased nociceptor input leads to ______
in regards to chronic pain leads to physiological changes
Name 3
maladaptive changes ( neuroplascity) in dorsal horn and cns
-phenotype switch
GI to GS
-propeceptive Ab fibers transmit pain instead of normal signal
