Objectives Minimize severity of post surgical pain.
Improve the animals ability to cope with that pain.
Decrease suffering & hasten return to normal function.

PathophysiologyPathophysiology
Nociceptor – unencapsulated peripheral Nociceptor – unencapsulated peripheral termini of primary afferent neurons. A termini of primary afferent neurons. A receptor preferentially sensitive to a receptor preferentially sensitive to a noxious stimulus or to a stimulus that will noxious stimulus or to a stimulus that will become noxious if prolonged.become noxious if prolonged.
Each nociceptor has a detection threshold potential which must be exceeded before an impulse travels from the peripheral receptor site to the CNS.

Nociception
Physiological process which involves transduction, transmission, modulation and perception of the noxious stimuli.
Pain is the subjective interpretation of nociceptive input.

Different types of nerve fibers concerned with the impulse transfer
A- delta nerve fibers“Fast fibers”
First acute, fast, sharp pain associate with injury.
Receptive area is very discrete
Help to localize the pain to the site of stimulus. Eg HTM, MMT.C- nerve fibersSlow fibers
Second, dull, aching, burning, throbbing pain associated with injury.
Their receptive area is large.
They limit the localization of the site of stimulus to general body areas.
![Page 9: Pain management](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070301/5456f29baf7959160a8b8487/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
A- beta nerve fibersLower stimulation threshold than A- delta & C fibers
Transmit innocuous tactile sensations such as vibration, tickling, tingling etc.,.
Close the gate
Stimulating A beta nerve fibers seems to diminish A- delta & C nerve fiber nociceptor input.
A- delta or C nerve fibers carry nerve impulse from the periphery to the dorsal or ventral spinal root and then to the dorsal horn of the spinal cord after nociceptor threshold has been reached.

Different Types of pain and their conductionSomatic PainBoth A- delta & C fibers.
Discretely localizable.
Visceral painC fibers only.
Poorly localized.
Broad stimulation of visceral nerve endings by ischemia, smooth muscle spasm of hollow organs or ducts, or distention of viscera and ligaments.
Parietal surfaces of thorax and abdomen and retroperitoneal organs are richly supplied by A- delta and C fibers.

Pain tolerance Greatest level of pain that a subject will tolerate. Varies widely among both individual and species.
Hyperalgesia
Occurs when a nociceptor is stimulated and then respond to subsequent noxious stimuli more vigorously and at a low pain detection threshold.
1. Primary hyperalgesia
2. Secondary hyperalgesia
![Page 12: Pain management](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070301/5456f29baf7959160a8b8487/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Central sensitization
An activity dependant increase in the excitability of the spinal neurons.
Hypersensitisation of post synaptic ascending spinal neurons.
Magnitude and duration of response to the subsequent noxious stimuli will increase.
Clinically significant-post operative analgesia.

Pain Pathway
The first order neuron originates in the periphery and projects to the spinal cord.
The second order neuron ascends the spinal cord.
The third order neuron projects into the brain.
