  2. Polycarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate

    Polycarbonate is mainly used for electronic applications that capitalize on its collective safety features. A good electrical insulator with heat-resistant and flame-retardant properties, it is used in products associated with power systems and telecommunications hardware. It can serve as a dielectric in high-stability capacitors. [6]

  3. Polycarbophil calcium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbophil_calcium

    The patients with diarrhea reported fewer bowel movements, more solid stools and reduced abdominal pain. Patients with constipation reported more frequent bowel movements, looser stools and less pain. [1] The human stomach presents a mild acidic environment due to the presence of HCl. Polycarbophil absorbs about ten times its own weight of ...

  4. Diffuse noxious inhibitory control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse_noxious_inhibitory...

    The DNIC model is used frequently to quantify the central pain sensitization in chronic pain patients. DNIC inefficiency (or lower DNIC) has been implicated as a risk factor for development of chronic pain and pain syndromes. [4] Chronic pain disorders such as temporomandibular disorder [5] and fibromyalgia [6] have been associated with DNIC ...

  5. Poly(trimethylene carbonate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(trimethylene_carbonate)

    Poly(glycolide-co-trimethylene carbonate) is a commercial monofilament used for suture with slow biodegradation rate which allows maintenance of high mechanical strength compatible with the surgical recovery. [9] Poly(caprolactone-co-trimethylene carbonate) has been proposed as biomaterial for conduits in the regeneration of central nervous system.

  6. Analgesic adjuvant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analgesic_adjuvant

    An analgesic adjuvant is a medication that is typically used for indications other than pain control but provides control of pain in some painful diseases. This is often part of multimodal analgesia, where one of the intentions is to minimize the need for opioids. [1] [2] [3]

  7. Polycarbonate (functional group) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate_(functional...

    A polycarbonate is an oxocarbon dianion consisting of a chain of carbonate units, where successive carbonyl groups are directly linked to each other by shared additional oxygen atoms. That is, they are the conjugate bases of polycarbonic acids , the conceptual anhydrides of carbonic acid , or polymers of carbon dioxide .

  8. Muscle relaxant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_relaxant

    Spasmolytics, also known as "centrally acting" muscle relaxant, are used to alleviate musculoskeletal pain and spasms and to reduce spasticity in a variety of neurological conditions. While both neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics are often grouped together as muscle relaxant, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] the term is commonly used to refer to spasmolytics only.

  9. Pain management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pain_management

    Another problem with pain management is that pain is the body's natural way of communicating a problem. [6] Pain is supposed to resolve as the body heals itself with time and pain management. [6] Sometimes pain management covers a problem, and the patient might be less aware that they need treatment for a deeper problem. [6]
