Evaluation of low-intensity transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in combination with aspirin for reduction of controlled thermal sensation

K C Kajander. Anesth Prog. 1988 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

Reductions in cutaneous thermal sensation produced by placebo, aspirin, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation plus aspirin were compared in 60 normal volunteers. The combination of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation plus aspirin produced a statistically significant reduction as compared with placebo. The results suggest this treatment combination may provide levels of analgesia useful for completion of minor dental procedures.
