Description
Summary:Peripheral Receptor Targets for Analgesia. Novel Approaches to Pain Management. Edited by. Brian E. Cairns. A unique reference on peripheral pain receptor mechanisms. While considerable advances have been made on pharmacotherapies for many chronic disease states, options available to treat chronic pain have remained relatively unchanged for decades. However, utilizing the receptors involved in peripheral pain transduction mechanisms offers a significant opportunity to create novel therapies for pain. A comprehensive review of peripheral pain mechanisms, Peripheral Receptor Targets for Analgesi.
