Background Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is commonly used for the management of pain; however, its effects on several pain and function measures are unclear. Objective The purpose this study was to determine high-frequency TENS (HF-TENS) low-frequency (LF-TENS) outcome (pain at rest, movement-evoked pain, sensitivity) in people with knee osteoarthritis. Design a double-blind, randomized clinical trial. Setting setting tertiary care center. Participants Seventy-five...
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is an effective adjunctive therapy for postoperative pain; however, effects of different frequencies have not been systematically investigated. Laparoscopic sterilization (LS) causes significant pain in the early period and requires substantial medication. Therefore, we studied TENS on after LS through placement Yoon fallopian rings a prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study.Sixty-four patients undergoing uterine...
Objective This randomized controlled clinical trial aimed to investigate the effect of dance in functionality and psychosocial adjustment young subjects with cerebral palsy (CP). Design Methods Twenty-six CP, GMFCS (Gross Motor Function Classification System) levels from II V, were into two intervention groups: kinesiotherapy (n = 13 each). Twenty-four sessions (1 hour, twice a week) performed both groups. Functional Independence Measure (FIM) World Health Organization Disability Assessment...
<ns4:p>Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterized by generalized chronic musculoskeletal pain, hyperalgesia in specific points, and psychosomatic symptoms, such as fatigue, sleep disturbances (waking unrefreshed), anxiety, depression, cognitive dysfunction, headache, gastrointestinal disorders. Investigations with non-pharmacological therapies, focused on physical therapy, have increased recent years alternative therapies for the treatment of fibromyalgia. The purpose this review to summarize...
Abstract Regular physical activity prevents the development of chronic muscle pain through modulation central mechanisms that involve rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM). We tested if pharmacological blockade or genetic deletion mu-opioid receptors in physically active mice modulates excitatory and inhibitory systems RVM an activity-induced hyperalgesia model. examined response frequency to mechanical stimulation paw, withdrawal thresholds, expression phosphorylation NR1 subunit...
O. basilicum leaves produce essential oils (LEO) rich in monoterpenes. The short half-life and water insolubility are limitations for LEO medical uses. β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) has been employed to improve the pharmacological properties of LEO. We assessed antihyperalgesic profile LEO, isolated or complexed β-CD (LEO/β-CD), on an animal model fibromyalgia. Behavioral tests: mice were treated every day with either LEO/β-CD (25, 50 100 mg/kg, p.o.), (25 tramadol (TRM 4 i.p.) vehicle (saline), 60...
Introduction Headache is the most common adverse event immediately following craniotomy and due to surgical procedure meningeal irritation. Objectives The aim of this study was investigate prevalence headache during first week after a craniotomy, as well intensity, whether pain registered in patient's medical records, use analgesics predictors headache. Methods Ninety-one patients who underwent were evaluated from seventh post-operative day. variables analysed gender, age, history,...
Introduction: Dance has been studied as a beneficial intervention that enhances the physical and socioemotional well-being of individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). This study explores how regular dance practice can enhance quality life for PD, focusing on their perceptions experiences. Methods: Adopting phenomenological approach, research employed qualitative methods, specifically semi-structured interviews. The collected data were transcribed, categorized, analyzed using IRAMUTEQ®...
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a treatment for pain that involves placement of through the skin relief. Previous work from our laboratory shows repeated application TENS produces analgesic tolerance by fourth day and concomitant cross-tolerance at spinal opioid receptors. Prior pharmacological studies show blockade cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors systemically spinally prevents development to doses agonists. We therefore hypothesized systemic intrathecal CCK would...
