conclusions the most comfortable postoperative women were those in luteal phase without history of pms group. results patients with pms presented higher pain sensation and analgesia request (p = 0.003). patients in luteal phase showed less pain and analgesia request in two out of five studied outcomes (p = 0.075). patients and methods a total of 140 women in in postoperative period were assigne...

The temporary threshold shift of temperature sensation due to vibration exposure was studied to clarify the significance of frequency and acceleration on it. The discrete frequencies of the vibrations tested were 32, 63, 125, 250 and 500 Hz, and the accelerations were at the level of 2, 4, 8 and 16 g. The threshold shift of warm sensation (TTSw) was markedly, but that of cool sensation was smal...
