Abstract:
Non-invasive electrotherapy it is a safe way to use electric current in physical therapy to treat pain related to musculoskeletal diseases. Electrotherapy mediated analgesia results from stimulation of pain inhibiting receptors activity increase as well endogenous opioids secretion rise. Physical therapy applies different modalities to ease the pain whereas transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is one of them. The aim of this study was assessment of impact of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on sensory threshold and threshold of pain. Study included 33 females and 30 males, healthy volonteers aged 21–25 years. In participants single convectional transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation was performed. Sensory and pain threshold were assessed before stimulation, immediately after stimulation and in 15th and 30th minute after stimulation. Measurements were performed with PainMatcher device. The results have proved that single convectional TENS leads to sensory threshold decrease and increase of pain threshold. The research confirms positive effects of TENS in antinociceptic processes.

Abstract:
Pain and its management hold a central place in health care. The pain associated with pregnancy and giving birth is unique in that it is a normal, physiologic phenomenon that is affected by cultural mores, personal experience, and internalized sensations. There are numerous nonpharmacologic tools available to treat discomfort during pregnancy and childbirth. Some methods of nonpharmacologic relief are underutilized, due to the lack of knowledge of the evidence. Childbirth educators, doulas, nurses, and midwives are a prime source of knowledge for birthing families to learn a variety of comfort techniques during pregnancy and labor. The purpose of this article is to discuss the use of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) as a nonpharmacologic comfort technique.

Abstract:
Pain is the oldest medical condition and has been referenced through the ages. TENS is a non-invasive treatment for pain. Despite conflicting reports of treatment outcomes, TENS has enjoyed widespread clinical utilization. Seminal work by Sluka and colleagues reported low frequency TENS produces anti-hyperalgesia through µ-opioid receptors and high frequency TENS produces anti-hyperalgesia through ä-opioid receptors in an animal model of inflammation. The experimental results suggested that pain can be reduced by both high and low frequency TENS but by differing opioid receptors. These important findings require translational experiments to be conducted in humans. Providing an adequate placebo for experimental investigation of any physical intervention presents as a challenge. An improvement in the placebo intervention is critical to ascertain the true effects of TENS on painful conditions. Clinical TENS experiments often only examine a single outcome - resting pain. Recent work suggests TENS is less effective on resting pain as compared to movement pain. Investigation to determine which outcome measures (pain at rest, movement pain, pain sensitivity, and function) are most likely to be affected by TENS in human subjects with pain are critical to inform the design of future studies. The least investigated parameter for application of TENS electrode site determination. One method of selection employs a technique of finding points on the skin with suspected lower impedance. To date, no literature exists to determine the effectiveness of this clinical practice and speculation has existed for decades regarding the existence of distinct electrical properties associated with specific points on the body. This series of experiments accomplishes the goals of improving the TENS placebo, testing established parameters from basic science experiments in a patient population, testing multiple outcome measures to direct future investigation; and examined the effect of electrode site selection in TENS analgesia. These experiments were the first to establish a placebo that can 100% blind the TENS examiner, to test this placebo in a patient population, and to show that although there are differences in impedance between optimal and sham sites, that this difference had no effect in the amount of analgesia produced by TENS.

Abstract:
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) has been employed for over 2 decades in pain management, however, definitive analgesic parameters have yet to be determined. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of 10, 30 and 60 min of TENS on the time course and magnitude of modulation on flexion reflex (FR) and on subjective pain estimates (visual analogue scale, VAS), as well as determining the relationship between FR responses and VAS scores following TENS of different durations.
Ten (10) normal subjects received electrical stimuli of maximal tolerable intensity to the sole of their foot. Our results indicated that TENS could suppress the FR in 50% to 70% of subjects. However, longer durations (30 and 60 min) of TENS have a small, but discernible difference in the number of subjects that show inhibition of FR area and significant maximal FR suppression when compared to 10 min of TENS. Moreover, the 60 min of TENS generated significant depression of VAS scores in more subjects than 10 and 30 min of TENS and ensured that any increase in pain perception would not reach significance when compared to the shorter (10 and 30 min) durations of TENS.
Our results suggested that longer durations of TENS could be applied to produce antinociceptive and analgesic effects. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Abstract:
The vision for maternity services focuses on women-centred care with choice, control and promoting normality at its centre, thus emphasising the need to empower women to make choices and decisions regarding their care in labour and birth. Some women will choose the medical model of care, however others prefer to be in control and choose to use non-pharmacological alternatives for pain control in labour such as Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). TENS has enabled the provision of non-invasive, mobile, self-controlled pain relief for women in labour and is used extensively by women in the UK who, when asked, assess it favourably and say they would use it again. Currently the available literature on TENS fails to consider individual women’s experiences of using TENS for labour and birth, this study therefore seeks to redress this balance. Set in the south of England, the study uses Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) in order to explore the experiences of twenty purposively selected women, who were interviewed to expose their in-depth experiences of using TENS for pain control in labour and birth. The analysis of the verbatim transcripts revealed comprehensive findings ensuring an idiographic focus along with making claims for the larger group of women. In this study women used TENS as part of a combination of more natural pain control or as a ‘sole’ form of pain control for labour and birth. TENS was recognised as being part of a wider strategy for the maintenance of control in labour and normal birth for women. A super-ordinate theme of ‘control’ emerged from the data particularly relating to ‘internal control of self’, ‘external control of others’ and ‘control of the TENS machine’. Women’s positive experiences were enhanced by remaining mobile, using drug free pain control, being knowledgeable, having partners’ and midwives’ support, being distracted from their pain and trusting in TENS. By uncovering a group of women’s in-depth experiences of using TENS for pain control in labour and birth this study has filled a “gap” in the knowledge base. In addition, the findings suggest that TENS was identified as an ‘enabling mechanism’ for the women in order to be in control of a normalised birth. Women were able to maintain their independence, make decisions and actively take part in their pain control using TENS.

Abstract:
The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 1990 criterion classifies fibromyalgia as a clinical syndrome characterized by chronic widespread muscular pain and tenderness with hyperalgesia to pressure over 11/18 tender points of at least 3 months duration. Fibromyalgia is characterized by chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain and is associated with fatigue and cognitive dysfunction. The cause of fibromyalgia is unknown, but it has been shown to demonstrate sensitization of the central nervous system pain pathways by demonstrating lower pain pressure thresholds and reduced conditioned pain modulation (CPM). Pain and fatigue associated with fibromyalgia can interfere with daily function, work, and social activities. Without greater understanding of the interaction of pain, fatigue and function, we are limited in our ability to improve these symptoms for individuals with fibromyalgia. We designed three experiments to examine the relationship of pain, fatigue and function in individuals with fibromyalgia. Regression analyses demonstrated significant models that included pain, fatigue and fear of movement for prediction of function and quality of life in individuals with fibromyalgia and healthy controls. The fatigue study (cognitive fatigue, physical fatigue and dual fatigue task) demonstrated that people with fibromyalgia show enhanced pain and fatigue to both cognitive and physical fatigue tasks and reduced function in the physical fatigue task in comparison to healthy controls. Our final study showed active TENS restores CPM, decreases deep tissue pressure pain, decreases pain and fatigue during movement for individuals with fibromyalgia.

Abstract:
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a simple, non-invasive technique used in the control of chronic pain. Despite the success of TENS and its continued use for over twenty years, some patients either fail to respond or show only a partial response. Furthermore some patients respond initially to TENS but then become tolerant to its analgesic effects. The reasons for poor response to TENS are unknown; different clinics report widely differing success rates, and information on long-term efficacy is sparse. Furthermore, TENS is still administered on an empirical basis in which the patient determines by trial and error the most appropriate stimulator settings (i. e. electrical characteristics of TENS) to treat his or her particular pain. It is impossible to predict whether an individual patient will respond to TENS or which stimulator settings will be optimal. In an attempt to elucidate these problems, the clinical, electrophysiological, neuropharmacological, psychological and sociological factors that influence the analgesic effects and clinical efficacy of TENS have been examined in this thesis. Three clinical studies were performed. The first (Study 2.1) reviewed the use of TENS since its introduction to Newcastle Pain Relief Clinic in 1979. It was found that 1582 patients have been given a trial of TENS of which 927 (58.6%) continue to use a stimulator on a long-term basis (Study 2.1). The clinical use of TENS by 179 of these patients was examined in-depth (Study 2.2). Although previous literature suggests that TENS is most efficacious for pains of neurogenic (neuropathic) origin, it was found that any type of pain may respond. No relationships were found to exist between the electrical characteristics of TENS (i. e. stimulator settings) used by patients during TENS treatment and the cause and site of pain. However, patients utilised specific pulse frequencies and patterns and consistently used these settings on subsequent treatment sessions (Study 2.3). These clinical studies showed that in this population, 41.4% of patients failed to respond to TENS and half using TENS on a long-term basis achieved less than 50% relief of pain. Thus, a systematic investigation to determine optimal electrical characteristics of TENS was performed. Three experiments were undertaken to examine separately the analgesic effects of different electrical characteristics of TENS (pulse frequency, pulse pattern and stimulation mode) on cold-pressor pain in healthy subjects. The effects of a range of Long Abstract pulse frequencies (10Hz to 160Hz) applied to produce a 'strong but comfortable' electrical paraesthesia within the painful site were measured (Exp. 3.1). It was found that frequencies between 20-80Hz were most effective. However, no differential effects were observed between a range of pulse patterns (continuous, burst, modulation, random; Exp. 3.2). When TENS was applied in burst mode at an intensity sufficient to produce phasic muscle twitches at a site distant yet myotomally related to the site of pain (acupuncture-like TENS) a powerful analgesic effect was observed during and post-stimulation (Exp. 3.3). It is suggested that continuous mode stimulation at 80Hz, producing a 'strong but comfortable' electrical paraesthesia within the painful site, should be the primary TENS treatment choice in the clinic but that in selected cases AL-TENS may be more effective. A number of improvements in stimulator design are suggested. Further experiments were aimed at elucidating the mechanism of TENS effects by investigating the influence of TENS on electrophysiological and neuropharmacological variables. It was found that TENS reduced peak-to-peak amplitudes of the late waveform components (N1P2) of somatosensory evoked potentials (Exp. 4.1) and increased alpha, beta and theta activity of spontaneous EEG in healthy subjects (Exp. 4.2) and/or pain patients (Exp. 4.3). As TENS produced changes in SEPs elicited from non-painful stimuli, and also changes in spontaneous EEG in pain-free subjects, it is suggested that the effects of TENS may be due in part to changes in sensory processing at several levels in the nervous system which may not specific for the perception of pain. The surprising finding that TENS increased peripheral circulating met-enkephalin in chronic pain patients was attributed to a stress-like release although this observation remains to be confirmed using a larger population sample (Exp. 5.1). The results of these experiments suggest that baseline electrophysiological and neuropharmacological variables may be important determinants of individual response to TENS. Thus, a prospective investigation was undertaken on 29 patients who were undergoing a trial of TENS to control chronic pain, in an attempt to identify predictors of patient response. Patient response to TENS was related to baseline SEP amplitudes and spontaneous EEG but was not related to biochemical, psycho-social, personality or pain related factors (Exp. 6.1). Thus, patients with small peak-to-peak amplitudes of the SEP, and low power spectrum of spontaneous EEG showed poor response to TENS (Exp. 6.1). It is suggested that an individual's intrinsic central response pattern to external stimuli may influence response to TENS.

Abstract:
These studies investigated possible relief of spasticity in hemiparetic subjects by transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and its underlying mechanisms. The first two studies quantified the disorders in reflex and voluntary motor functions and addressed the reproducibility of their measurement and their correlation with spasticity scores. Soleus stretch reflexes were enhanced and isometric voluntary contraction force was decreased linearly with increasing spasticity. The last two studies addressed the effects of single and repetitive TENS stimulation on spasticity, reflex and isometric voluntary contractions. Compared to placebo stimulation, single 45 min sessions of TENS prolonged H and stretch reflex latencies for up to 60 min following stimulation. Repetitive (15 daily, 60 min) applications significantly decreased spasticity scores, Hvib/Hctl ratios, stretch reflexes and co-contraction while improving dorsiflexion force. The improvement in spasticity and voluntary motor control may partly have been mediated by presynaptic inhibition and reduced hyperactive stretch reflexes thereby 'unmasking' descending control.

Methods: A systematic literature review was performed in the PubMed and Lilacs databases with the terms: “Post-thoracotomy pain AND (Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation OR TENS)”, being selected randomized controlled trials, clinical trials and case reports. Studies that did not fit the objectives were excluded. Results: TENS was shown to be a safe and effective therapy in the management of acute post-thoracotomy pain in the emergency department; however, the technique did not decrease the length of hospital stay or early pulmonary complications. One such study pointed to decreased shoulder flexion pain in patients undergoing axillary thoracotomy for lung resection, with pain sensation significantly decreased in the experimental group. In consonance, other trials emphasized the importance of the association of TENS with pharmacological therapy already employed in the emergency department, because patients who received fentanyl and bupivacaine associated with TENS perceived an immediate reduction in pain intensity at rest. Conclusion: TENS has proven to be a very effective and safe therapy in the treatment of postoperative pain in patients undergoing thoracotomy, improving their quality of life and reducing the consumption of analgesics.

Abstract:
Recently, the healthy industry is interested in more innovative portable devices for healthcare with ubiquitous computing environment. There are integrated medicine, advanced high-tech smart devices, electronics technology, and other research areas. For these issues, we aimed to develop the ubiquitous computing Smart Healthcare Clothing System (SHCS) using Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS) for the hypertensive. Wearable smart technologies will give the wearable functional industry a high-tech value of making healthy and anywhere-anytime comfortable life. Hypertension is a typical chronic disease stressful life. TENS is especially the effective rehabilitation and preventive treatment healthcare device for the hypertensive. We designed SHCS with TENS which was embedded in glove with four textile-based electrodes, and instructed by oriental medical ergonomics. This research was conducted the healthcare performance and wear comfort of SHCS by clinical experiment. The results of effect analysis of care performances were as follows: 1) the mean of subject’s blood pressure was decreased to the lower ranges after wearing the SHCS with tens in the systolic pressure (p1less than .001, as the paired t-test using statistical analysis method SAS 9.1). We could suggest SHCS with TENS that is easy-to-use, and effective rehabilitation and preventive treatment healthcare device for the hypertensive.

Abstract:
After experiencing a stroke, 80% of individuals face hemiparesis causing muscle weaknesses, paralysis, and lack of proprioception. This often induces difficulty to perform everyday functions such as balancing. The goal of this project is to determine if stroke-like balance can be induced in healthy individuals. The Proprioceptive Interference Apparatus (PIA) applies vibrations and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) about the knee joint in different combinations both with and without visual feedback. Ten subjects stood on one foot for periods of two minutes for each of the eight trial conditions. The root mean squared (RMS) of the position coordinates, the standard deviation of the forces, and the RMS of center of pressure coordinates were analyzed for each trial and subject. Analysis of the variation of position markers and forces showed a statistically significant difference between balance with visual feedback versus without. However, the use of PIA did not have any statistically significant difference on these measures.

Abstract:
Previous research has demonstrated the use of single-channel porcine-derived urinary bladder matrix (UBM) conduits in segmental-loss, peripheral nerve repairs as comparable to criterion-standard nerve autografts. This study aimed to replicate and expand upon this research with additional novel UBM conduits and coupled therapies. Fifty-four Wistar Albino rats were divided into 6 groups, and each underwent a surgical neurectomy to remove a 7-millimeter section of the sciatic nerve. Bridging of this nerve gap and treatment for each group was as follows: i) reverse autograft—the segmented nerve was reversed 180 degrees and used to reconnect the proximal and distal nerve stumps; ii) the nerve gap was bridged via a silicone conduit; iii) a single-channel UBM conduit; iv) a multi-channel UBM conduit; v) a single-channel UBM conduit identical to group 3 coupled with fortnightly transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS); vi) or, a multi-channel UBM conduit identical to group 4 coupled with fortnightly TENS. The extent of nerve recovery was assessed by behavioural parameters: foot fault asymmetry scoring measured weekly for six weeks; electrophysiological parameters: compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitudes, measured at weeks 0 and 6; and morphological parameters: total fascicle areas, myelinated fiber counts, fiber densities, and fiber sizes measured at week 6. All the above parameters demonstrated recovery of the test groups (3-6) as being either comparable or less than that of reverse autograft, but none were shown to outperform reverse autograft. As such, UBM conduits may yet prove to be an effective treatment to repair relatively short segmental peripheral nerve injuries, but further research is required to demonstrate greater efficacy over nerve autografts.
