Pain Practice May 28, 2021
Domingues FS, Maisa GV, Sikandar S, et al. - This study was undertaken to explore the analgesic effectiveness of a portable, disposable, and home self-applied transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation device during migraine attacks. Researchers performed a double-blind, randomized controlled trial over three months, with monthly assessments. They further assessed pain intensity levels and functional disability before and after the 20-minute self-applied transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation intervention during the migraine attacks. It was shown that transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation devices were found to be safe and effective in relieving pain correlated with migraine attacks. As per the results, participants in the intervention group exhibited a statistically significant improvement in pain and functional disability scores.
