Arthritis & Rheumatology Nov 25, 2019
Dailey DL, Vance CGT, Rakel BA, et al. - Individuals were randomized to receive active-transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) (n = 103), placebo-TENS (n = 99) or no-TENS (n = 99) and instructed to use it at home 2h/day during activity for 4- weeks in order to assess whether using TENS during activity would enhance movement-evoked pain and other patient-reported outcomes in women with fibromyalgia (FM, identified by pain and fatigue, especially during physical activity). In comparison with placebo-TENS or no-TENS, 4-weeks of active-TENS use led to an important betterment in movement-evoked pain and other clinical outcomes among women with FM and stable medication.
