Effect of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on quality of recovery and pain after abdominal hysterectomy

Journal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology Apr 15, 2021

Karaman S, Karaman T, Deveci H, et al. - For postoperative pain management, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) represents a noninvasive complementary therapy. Researchers conducted this study with the aim to determine how TENS affects postoperative quality of recovery (QoR) and pain in patients who had undergone a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (TAH + BSO). They performed randomization of 52 patients into two groups: control (sham TENS treatment) and TENS (TENS treatment). In the TENS group, they recorded significantly higher QoR scores, as well as significantly less pain scores during coughing (dynamic pain), when compared with the control group. Overall findings suggest a possible value of TENS for improving patients' QoR and dynamic pain scores after TAH + BSO.
