Skin impedance is not a factor in transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation effectiveness

OBJECTIVE: Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a nonpharmacological intervention used to manage pain using skin surface electrodes. Optimal electrode placement is unclear. We hypothesized that better analgesia would occur if electrodes were placed over sites with lower skin impedan...
