Randomized Controlled Trial of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation for Pain Relief During Transvaginal Oocyte Retrieval Using Conscious Sedation
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and TENS machine with electrodes not emitting any impulses. for Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation and Oocyte Retrieval. Completed, enrolled 160 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This randomized double-blinded control trial aims to compare the pain levels experienced by the women using the standard conscious sedation and those who had transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in addition to conscious sedation. The hypothesis is that there will be less pain in women with both conscious sedation and TENS.
