The influence of stimulus control on the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on experimental ischaemic pain
A review of the relevant literature suggested a number of unresolved issues in the most efficacious use of TENS for pain-relief including the degree of control and the frequency of TENS. The study investigated the influence of giving subjects control of the TENS stimulus on reported pain intensity …

Repetitive Magnetic Stinulation Versus Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation in Myofascial Pain Syndrome of Neck and Shoulder : A Comparison Study
"목적: 경부와 견갑부 근막통증후군 환자에서 말초 반복자기자극치료의 통증 경감 효과를 경피적 전기자극치료와 비교하여 근골격계 통증의 치료방법으로써의 가능성과 효과를 확인하고자 한다. 연구 대상 및 방법: 발병 후 6개월 이상 된 뒷목과 어깨의 근막통증후군 통증 환자 총 20명을 무작위로 반복자기자극과 경피전기 신경자극 치료 두 군으로 분류하였다. 2주간 총 10회, 1회에 20분간 각각의 치료를 통증이 가장 심한 부위에 치료를 받았으며 치료에 대한 평가는 치료 시작 전, 2주 치료종료 직후, 치료 종료 후 2주와 5주에 …

L’effet de la neurostimulation périphérique sur la douleur induite par l’exercice chez les femmes vivants avec la fibromyalgie
… pain flare-ups (i.e. MEP) can hinder adherence. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a safe, non-pharmacological technic that provides pain relief, but its effects on MEP following resistance exercise session remain unknown. Objective: Investigate the acute and short-term (up to …

The computational modelling of the spinal cord neurons involved in the pain process
… simulation of a pain modulatory technique, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), which validates the model’s representation of the GCT and provides insight into how pain modulation can occur. Other developments to this model show its unique ability to represent symptoms of …
