Effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation characteristics on clinical pain.
We compared the effects of four treatment variables on the pain reduction produced by transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and attempted to establish indications for TENS based on patient history and pain evaluation items. Treatment variables were the therapist and the three TENS stimulus characteristics--pulse width, frequency, and amplitude. We randomly assigned 192 consecutive adult p...
متن کاملTranscutaneous electrical nerve stimulation for acute pain.
BACKGROUND Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a non-pharmacological agent, based on delivering low voltage electrical currents to the skin. TENS is used for the treatment of a variety of pain conditions. OBJECTIVES To assess the analgesic effectiveness of TENS for acute pain in adults to see if it had any clear analgesic effect in its own right. SEARCH STRATEGY The follow...
متن کاملTranscutaneous electrical nerve stimulation improves low back pain during pregnancy.
BACKGROUND To compare the efficiency of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) with those of exercise and acetaminophen for the treatment of pregnancy-related low back pain (LBP) during the third trimester of pregnancy. METHODS This prospective study included 79 subjects (≥32 gestational weeks) with visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores ≥5. Participants were divided randomly into ...

متن کاملTranscutaneous electrical nerve stimulation
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive analgesic technique that is used to relieve nociceptive, neuropathic, and musculoskeletal pain. During TENS, pulsed electrical currents are generated by a portable pulse generator and delivered across the intact surface of the skin via the selfadhering conducting pads called electrodes (Fig. 1). Patients can self-administer TE...
