1. Pathophysiology of pain - biochemical principles of pain formation, transmission of pain through individual levels of the peripheral and central nervous system. Peripheral and central mechanisms of pain. Endogenous opioids. 2. Types of pain - according to origin, duration, localization. Assessment and nature of pain. 3. Pain - deafferentation pain (anesthesia dolorosa), phantom pain, thalamic, root pain. 3. Pain - visceral, psychogenic, dysautonomic, neuropathic, transferred. 4. Pharmacotherapy of pain. 5.
