CHOICE

1.A client tells the nurse that she rarely experiences pain, but when she does, she seeks medical
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
attention. The nurse realizes this client understands that pain is important because it:
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
1. is a protective system.
g g g
2. includes the automatic withdrawal reflex. g g g g
3. creates sensitivity to pain. g g g
4. helps with healing. g g
ANS: 1 g
Pain is a protective system that includes protection from unsafe behaviors by use of reflexes,
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
memory, and avoidance. Even though the automatic withdrawal reflex is a part of the pain
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
response, it does not explain why pain is important. Pain does not create sensitivity to pain. Pain
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
does not help with healing.

Allodynia or hyperalgesia is a state where a slight or nonpainful stimulus is interpreted as very
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
painful. Kinesthesia is the awareness of movement. Proprioception is the awareness of body
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
position. Modulation is an influencing factor in the perception of pain.
