Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
2014Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a simple, noninvasive analgesic technique that is used extensively in health-care settings by physiotherapists, nurses, and midwifes. It has been demonstrated that TENS is of significant benefit in the management of vulvar and sexual pain (vulvodynia), and it can also have a relevant role in the ...

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
1988The first modern stimulator for TENS of peripheral nerves for the management of pain was originally developed as a screening device to determine the potential usefulness of surgical implantation of electrodes for the stimulation of the dorsal column of the spinal cord.

Telethermographic Findings After Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
Physical Therapy, 1986The purpose of this study was to determine whether some types of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation cause local vasodilation. The amount of vascular perfusion was monitored using telethermography to gauge the skin temperature of the area to which TENS was applied.

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation
British Journal of Midwifery, 1999Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) was developed in the 1960s and utilizes the gate-control theory of pain relief. It ‘closes the gate’ to pain impulses, in the case of labour, at the synapse in the spinal cord of afferent uterine nerve impulses.
