Medical - Medical: Health Care / Injections | | English term or phrase: Analgesic Syringe Clip | The Analgesic Syringe Clip
How does it work?
The analgesic syringe clip removes or reduces pain from injections based on the Gate Control Theory of Pain Management. In a normal injection, the pain receptors indicate that “tissue damage” is occurring. In contrast, pressure or vibrations on areas of the mouth are interpreted simply as “pressure” or “vibration”. When these signals are combined, as in the case with an injection using the analgesic syringe clip, the “tactile” pathway has an inhibitory action on the “pain” pathway at the dorsal horn of the spinal cord (or wherever these nerve fibers actually connect). Thus, the patient doesn’t feel the pain, because the “pain signal” is essentially masked by the “vibration” signal. |
