    Author: Lehmkuhl G, Thissen R.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1978 Jul 14; 103(28):1141-3. PubMed ID: 307487.
    Abstract:
    In two groups of 30 patients pain relief due to transcutaneous nerve stimulation was compared with a placebo, under similar external conditions. The two groups were approximately similar in age, sex, and the origin of pain. Only patients with continuous pain of the limbs or trunk were included in the investigation. There was no statistically significant difference in the success rate of the two groups.
