2000, Journal of PainCitation Excerpt :However, the parameters of TENS (ie, frequency, intensity, pulse duration) were not given. Rosenberg44 showed a significant reduction in opioid use after surgery with high-frequency (50 to 100Hz) TENS; however, parameters of intensity and pulse duration were adjusted by the patient. Smith et al45 measured pain relief by TENS (32 to 50 Hz; sensory intensity) in subjects with osteoarthritis by fulfilling 2 of 3 criteria: 50% decrease in subjective pain scores, 50% decrease in analgesic intake, or improvement in sleep disturbances.
