Session information
- Title:
- Development of the Pain System

- The nervous system responds to noxious stimuli from early development. Changes in pain pathways, receptor distribution and function and in transmitter levels throughout postnatal development mean that responses to pain, injury and analgesia in neonates and infants may differ from those seen in adults.
