This is a huge topic to cover and brings us to the end of our ‘Neurophysiology & Pain’ series. Today’s topic is “Pain Physiology” and we start straight away by looking at the normal sensory pathways (01:39). This is followed by a detailed look at one the biggest LO’s being physiological mechanism of pain (11:44). After this I quickly review the progression from acute to chronic pain (32:36), physiology of neuropathic pain (37:05) and alteration in pain perception in the elderly (39:18). As always at the end I go through the past SAQ’s (44:56). This episode is a hard one to get excited about but once you know it well it will make your life easier. Thanks for listening!
