Y1 - 2021 N1 - T2 - Decision Making in Perioperative Medicine: Clinical Pearls AB - It is important to realize the difference between nociception and pain. Nociception is when a noxious stimulus depolarizes sensory nerves, which provide the brain with information about tissue injury. Nociception is neither necessary nor sufficient for pain. Pain is a subjective experience; the consequence of filtering, modulating, and distorting nociception through an individual’s affective and cognitive processes.
