Transcranial DC Stimulation Coupled With TENS for the Treatment of Chronic Pain: A Preliminary Study
The Clinical Journal of Pain, 09/29/09
Boggio PS et al. – The results showed that there was a significant difference in pain reduction across the conditions of stimulation. Post hoc tests showed significant pain reduction as compared with baseline after the transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)/transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) condition and the tDCS condition, but not after sham stimulation. In addition, tDCS/TENS induced greater pain reduction than tDCS. The results of this pilot study suggest that the combination of TENS with tDCS has a superior effect compared with tDCS alone.
