TENS
"This device will then be used for deep transcutaneous nerve stimulation at the T10-L1 and S2-S4 levels. The device will be placed and activated 5 minutes before the procedure. and the device will remain active during the procedure and will be turned off as soon as the procedure is complete (the procedure typically takes 5-15 minutes). The TENS units have pre-program settings, improving convenience, reproducibility, and reliability. Study staff will be instructed to perform TENS using an Acupuncture mode on the provided TENS units. The amplitude will be adjusted to a comfortable sensation that does not cause pain using adhesive electrodes. One TENS unit is able to support 4 TENS electrodes. The TENS electrodes (8 cm x 5 cm) will be placed on bilateral paraspinal muscles. The intensity of the stimulation (Hz) will be adjusted to the subjective comfort of the subject."
