Inducing peripheral sympathetic nerve activity by therapeutic electrical stimulation.
PURPOSE To examine whether the activity of peripheral sympathetic nerves in animals with spinal cord injury can be controlled using therapeutic electrical stimulation. METHODS The spinal cords of 6 Wistar rats were severed at T12/T13 disk level and were given continuous therapeutic electrical stimulation. Microneurography was used to record sympathetic nerve activity at 24, 48, and 72 hours a...
متن کاملElectrical stimulation for promoting peripheral nerve regeneration.
The peripheral nervous system has the intrinsic capacity to regenerate axons into target tissues, and peripheral nerves severely damaged or transected can be reconstructed by microsurgical techniques. The aim of peripheral nerve surgery is to pave way for fast and most possible thorough functional recovery. However, full functional recovery is rarely seen and several reasons for this have alrea...
متن کاملElectrical peripheral nerve stimulation relieves bone cancer pain by inducing Arc protein expression in the spinal cord dorsal horn
Objective The analgesic effect on chronic pain of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) has been proven, but its underlying mechanism remains unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the analgesic effect of PNS on bone cancer pain in a rat model and to explore the underlying mechanism. Materials and methods PNS on sciatic nerves with bipolar electrode was performed in both naïve and bone c...
متن کاملTranscutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in osteoarthrosis: a therapeutic alternative?
Thirty patients with chronic pain due to osteoarthrosis (OA) of the knee were enrolled in a randomised double-blind cross-over trial of self-administered transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and placebo TENS. Medication was standardised to paracetamol tablets only. As measured on visual analogue scales for pain relief 46% of patients responded to active therapy and 43% to placebo....
متن کاملDoes High Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) Affect EEG Gamma Band Activity?
Background: Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a noninvasive, inexpensive and safe analgesic technique used for relieving acute and chronic pain. However, despite all these advantages, there has been very little research into the therapeutic effects of TENS on brain activity. To the best of our knowledge, there is no evidence on the effect of high frequency TENS on the gamma ...
