The gate control theory of pain was formulated in 1965 by a neurobiologist and a psychologist who wanted to propose thatspinal nervesact as gates to let pain travel through to reach the brain — or close these gates and prevent pain messages from getting through at all. Open gates.When the...
The gate control theory (GCT) of pain was introduced in 1965 by Ronald Melzack and Patrick Wall. It was the first theory to introduce the concept that pain experience is not simply the result of a linear process that begins with the stimulation of pain pathways in the peripheral nervous syst...

Gate Theory for Labor Pain ManagementSquellati, RobinInternational Journal of Childbirth Education
This study investigated a prediction derived from gate control theory—that there would be a pulse of pain as a pain stimulus was being ramped off due to the rapidly transmitting, inhibitory large fiber activity falling away sooner at the spinal level than the excitatory activity of the slow-tra...
摘要: Despite the mention that it was a theory, endless arguments and debates ensued. Poring over the details, arguing over the substrates, all futile and pointless since the theory has stood the test of time and has changed the way we think about pain—the new theory has endured....
67 Its development was based on the gate-control theory of pain, introduced a few years earlier by Melzack and Wall, who hypothesized that a “gate” in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord dictated transmission of nociception within the central nervous system.49 The hypothetical gate could be ...

researchers proposed that Descartes'model be replaced with what they called the gate control theory of pain.They argued that before pain signals reach the brain,they must first go through a gating mechanism in the spinal cord (脊髓).In some cases,this imaginary gate coul...
