cutaeneous pain arises from superficial structures. deep somatic pain originates in
deep body structures (muscles, tendons, joints, blood vessels). It is more diffuse
than cutaneous pain.
C- sharp, burns - fast or slow - localized
D- sprained ankle - radiates
refers to making descision in health care based on scientific data that has shown a
specific way of managing disease, pt symptoms, and complaints. It is based on the
integration of the individual clinical expertise of the practicioner with the best
external clinical evidence from systemic research.
, Degenerative disorder of basal ganglia function that results in variable
combinations of tremor, rigidity, akinesia/bradykinesia, and postural changes.
Characterized by progressive destruction of the nigrostriatal pathway with
subsequent reduction in striatal concentration of dopamine.
Mean Onset: 57yea - because the ganglia also influence the ANS pp; with this
disease often have excessive sweating, sebaceous gland secretion, and salivation.
Cognitive dysfunction may be present.
Only manage symptoms. Botulinum toxin injections may be used in the treatment of
dystonia such as eyelid spasm and spasm and limb dystinias.
Drugs try to increase dopamine levels and calm down AcH.
Decrease in visual acuity resulting from abnormal visual development in
infancy or early childhood. Vision loss ranges from mild (worse than 20/25) to
sever blindness (20/200 or worse) leading cause of visual impairment early
detection is irreversible.

smaller extrachromosomal pieces of circular DNA that bacteria often harbor

resistance)

concerned with both the gross anatomic and microscopic changes that are
characteristics of a disease.
elicited by injury to body tissues and activation of nociceptive stimuli at the
site of local tissue damage. Generally short duration and tends to resolve
when the underlying pathologic process has resolved.
Deals with the study of cells and extracellular matrix of body tissues. Histologic
sections play an important role in the diagnosis of many types of cancers.

Lead poisoning is absorbed through the GI tract or lungs into blood. If
there is a deficiency of ca, iron, or zinc, lead absorption is increased.
The most vulnerable population is

IVIG and cytokines - cytokines stimulate white cell rep, phagocytosis, antibody
production, fever, inflammation, and tissue repair.
children, most lead is absorbed through the lungs. Although children have the
same or a lower intake of lead the absorption in infants and children are
greater: thus; they are more vulnerable to lead toxicity.
LEAD CAN CROSS THE PLACENTA
softening of the center of an abscess with discharge of its contents (Think Wet-
Rotten Fruit).
Characteristics of hypoxic injury and is seen in infarcted areas. Infarction occurs
when an artery supplying an organ or part of the body becomes occluded and no
other source of blood supply exists.
