Chapter 1. Pain u u




MULTIPLE CHOICE
u u




1.A client tells the nurse that she rarely experiences pain, but when she does, she seeks medical
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u




attention. The nurse realizes this client understands that pain is important because it:
u u u u u u u u u u u u u




1. is a protective system.
u u u




2. includes the automatic withdrawal reflex.
u u u u




3. creates sensitivity to pain. u u u




4. helps with healing. u u




ANS: 1 u




Pain is a protective system that includes protection from unsafe behaviors by use of reflexes,
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u




memory, and avoidance. Even though the automatic withdrawal reflex is a part of the pain
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u




response, it does not explain why pain is important. Pain does not create sensitivity to pain. Pain
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u




does not help with healing.

ANS: 1 u




Allodynia or hyperalgesia is a state where a slight or nonpainful stimulus is interpreted as very
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u




painful. Kinesthesia is the awareness of movement. Proprioception is the awareness of body
u u u u u u u u u u u u u

4. Visceral
ANS: 4 u

u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u




that originates from the bone, joints, muscles, skin, or connective pain. Neuralgia and
