Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation: principles and parameters optimization for pain control

This abstract has open access
Abstract Summary
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a nonpharmacologic and noninvasive treatment commonly used by health care professionals as an adjunct treatment for both acute and chronic pain, arising from a variety of painful conditions. This presentation aims to offer a simple overview of the main analgesic mechanisms of action of TENS, together with the evidence-based electrical parameters adjustments to improve the analgesic response.
