Aim• To discuss evidence on: • a) the neural circuitry of nociception (sensory
and affective pathways), • b) the diverse mediators elicited in pain, as
well as the downstream intracellular signaling and pertinent cellular outcomes.
Pain/ nociception• Complex alarm system aiming to promote survival,
healing & adaptation (physical & psychosocial).• Can become maladaptive
• Highly integrated neuro-physiological and psycho-social response– Not only about injury– How others react to pain– Emotional responses
Acute Persistent Pain in critical illness
• #1 stressor recalled by critically ill patients
• Intricate problem due to limitations in patient communication
• The majority of critically ill patients reports pain
• 4 in every 6 critically ill patients experience moderate to severe pain
(Puntillo et al., 2014). • Pain is attributed to pathophysiological
processes and routine procedures(Puntillo 1990-2013, Barr 2013)
Transition to chronicity: post-ICU syndrome
• Risk factor for the post-intensive care syndrome:– “new or worsening impairments in physical, cognitive
or mental health status arising after critical illness and persisting beyond acute care hospitalization”
(Davidson et al., 2013).
Pain Pathways
1ary, 2ary somatosensory cortexes,
posterior insula (discriminative aspects of
pain)
dACC anterior insula limbic system

Inflammation is emotionally painful too
• Inflammation increases negative affect and social pain:– Healthy volunteers exposed to endotoxin showed
an increase in feelings of social disconnection and neural sensitivity to social pain
Eisenberger et al., 2010
Critically ill patients may get entrapped in a vicious circle of heightened physical and social pain

Transcriptional regulation
Mitochondrial alarm molecules (alarmins, DAMPs)
• Upon intense organismic stress, the mitochondrion releases primitive peptides (DAMPs, alarmins)
• They convey alarm signals within the cell (nucleus) and inter-cellularly promoting inflammation
HMGB-1 (high-mobility group Box-1)• Alarm nuclear molecule• Released from distressed and damaged cells• Secreted by ΜΦ, NK, endothelial, neuron & glial
cells• Mediator of innate and specific immunity• It binds to DNA and commences the
inflammatory cascade• Involved in hypersensitivity and pain responses
– Agalave & Svensson, 2014
HMGB-1Involved in every aspect
of sepsis and MODS pathophysiology
– Inflammation– Cell death
– Organ PMN infiltration– Oxidative stress
Elicits secretion of TNF & Cytokines
-feeds back to exaggerated inflammation state

Pain affects immunity• Acute pain in experimental models
causes suppression of splenic NK activity
(Sakaue, et al., 2011)
• Adequate pain control: inhibits the expected supression of lymphoproliferation and of reduction of NK activity (Sacerdote et al, 2000; Pollock et al 1991; Page et al,
2001)
• Chronic pain: ↓cytotoxic CD8+ lymphocytes ↓T-helper type 1 response. ↓NK activity
(Kaufmann, Eisner, et al, 2007; Brennan 1994)
Pain promotes cell death
• Persistent pain activates the JNK pathway
• JNK is a stress-activated pathway implicated in inflammation and apoptosis
Gao & Gi, 2008
Pain ratings in critically ill patients associate with death molecules on T and B cells
Papathanassoglou et al (in press)
Pain intensity associates with circulating cell death markers
• Pain intensity correlates with sFas (r=0.385, p=0.001) and sFasL (r=0.268, p=0.011) (controlled for disease severity) in critically ill patients with and without apparent tissue injury.
• Significant increases in sFas 30 min after sedation break (p=0.013),
• Significant differences between the two groups (p=0.031).
WFCCN Congress, 2013 Kletsiou & Papathanassoglou (in
press)
Pain: it’s no metaphor
• “Pain” of loss and isolation activates the 2ary somatosensory cortex similarly to physical pain
(Kross et al., 2011).
• Analgesic agents (acetaminophen) also reduce social pain
(Dewall et al., 2010).
(Kross et al., 2011).
Social Isolation is Painful!• The affective pathway of
nociception gets activated even by simple social exclusion conditions, such as being ignored or excluded from a game.
• Patients that feel isolated, lonely
or ignored may be at risk for higher pain intensity, as well as lower pain threshold.
Eisenberger et al., 2003
Social support: a universal painkiller
• Individuals with more social support show attenuated neural responses to social exclusion
Masten et al., 2012 • Presence of a significant other lowers pain intensity and
sensitivity and decreases pain-related neural activation–Montoya et al., 2004
Family pictures!• Viewing pictures of one’s partner
appears to lower the intensity of painEisenberger et al., 2011
Pain & Agression• inadequate analgesia is linked to the
onset of delirium Robinson & Volmer, 2010
• Interconnection between pain, agitation and delirium
Barr et al., 2013• Interpretable in evolutionary terms:
when harmed one may need to defend oneself and attack.
• Social exclusion, by activating overlapping neural pathways may also trigger defensive/ aggressive behavior
Warburton et al., 2006
Chronic pain post-ICU• ICU pain commonly persists after
discharge [Kyranou & Puntillo, 2012]
• Pain frequency, intensity higher in survivors of ARDS and severe sepsis
[Dowdy et al., 2006; Zimmer at al 2006]
• Surgical ICU patients: At 8 years, pain and discomfort in 57%
[Timmers et al., 2011]
• General ICU patients: 6 -12 months post-ICU, chronic pain was reported by 44% of respondents. shoulder was the most commonly reported joint affected (22%).
[Battle et al., 2013]
Transition to chronicity: neurophysiological evidence
• Fear of pain, may be important for the transition to chronicity.
• The amygdala integrate negative emotion, anxiety and nociceptive information
• Amygdalic hyperactivity during early stages of pain contributes to pain persistence and chronicity
(Li et al., 2013).
Prevention of pain persistence & chronicity
• Early detection and management • Early psychological and social support
Conclusion• Cellular responses to persistent
pain may put critically ill patients at risk for sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction.
• Social support and emotion are important in modulating both acute and persistent pain in critically ill patients, as well as the transition to chronic pain therefore they need to be targeted specifically in order to improve patient outcomes.
