A patient has a sore, injured hip. If rising out of a chair causes the patient's back and upper leg to hurt as well, then a nurse would document the pain as
 
  1. Referred pain.
  2. Radiating pain.
  3. Acute pain.
  4. Intractable pain.

Question 2

When considering how a patient is likely to respond to a nonpharmaceutical treatment for pain, a nurse understands that according to gate control theory,
 
  1. The hypothalamus can open and close the gate in relation to stress and anxiety.
  2. Stimulation of the narrow nerve fibers closes the gate, reducing pain.
  3. Endorphins help to close the gate, reducing pain.
  4. One should not immediately rub an injured body part because that can increase pain.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors.
