[Humoral-circulatory response in the somato-vegetative reflex caused by pain factors].
The somato-vegetative reflex is an organism's answer to physical stress, resulting from the action of miscellaneous stimuli on extero- and proprioreceptors. It is realized in two types of responses of alarm groups: Response to a stressor with superiority of the parasympathetic system. This is not often present and manifests as decrease in pulse, heart stroke volume and pressure. An adrenergic response to a stressor, realized sequntionally in time periods. The neurogenic phase and humoral phase connected with the ejection of amine from the core of the suprarenal gland are separately distingiushed in this type of response. Significant increase in blood pressure, vascular resistance, augmentation of flow of blood in the aorta and tachycardia were observed in these two phases to a considerable extent. An important role in this reflex is performed by the limbic system, whose activation causes a circulation of stimulation in the Papez emotive district, which lies at the basis of the appearance of vegetative symptoms of emotions. Knowledge of the mechanism of this reflex is important, as it may play an important role, without the participation of the consciousness (anesthesia) in diagnosing pain in miscellaneous surgical and dental procedures and sharp pain syndromes, as well as the prevention of the occurrence of this reflex and its hemodynamic repercussion.
