Vom Symptom zur Therapie

  • Chapter
Book cover Praktische Schmerzmedizin

Zusammenfassung

Schmerzen sind im Akutstadium eine protektive Reaktion des Körpers, um sich vor potenziellen Gewebeschädigungen zu schützen. An dieser protektiven Reaktion sind sowohl sensorische Afferenzen als auch somatische und vegetative motorische Efferenzen beteiligt. Daneben spielen assoziierte kognitive, affektive und endokrine Komponenten eine Rolle. Akutschmerzen sind häufig vorübergehender Natur und lassen sich einer Ursache zuordnen, die kausal oder symptomatisch behandelt werden kann. Chronische Schmerzen dagegen unterliegen nicht mehr physiologischen protektiven Reaktionen des Körpers. Sie stellen eine eigenständige Schmerzkrankheit dar.
