A child with terminal cancer is receiving at-home care from a hospice nurse. To control the child's pain, the nurse is creating a care plan. Opioids will probably be included by the nurse.

Opioids are substances that bind to opioid receptors found in the central, and peripheral nervous system and the gastrointestinal tract. They function by obstructing the transfer of pain impulses to the brain. They attach to their receptors on nerve cells and prevent neurotransmitters from being released from the neuronal end.

They have a variety of effects on the neurological system. They provide a relaxing sensation when they work on the limbic system. Their impact on the brainstem causes slow breathing as well as ache and cough alleviation. The pain caused by severe injuries may even be lessened if they have an effect on the spinal cord.
