Sponsor's own description

Objective: The aim of this investigation was compare the effectiveness of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) and interferential currents (IC) on chronic low back pain. Forty-eight patients diagnosed as having chronic low back pain were randomly assigned to three groups: control (sham electrotherapy; age 47 ± 8 years), interferential currents (IC; age 48 ± 8 years) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS; age 48 ± 8 years). Patients in all groups received 12 × 30-min sessions of the assigned treatment for a period of 4 weeks plus therapeutic exercises. Before and after the treatment, low back pain was measured using a 100-mm visual analogue scale and functional disability level was measured using the Rolland Morris Disability Questionnaire. Participants status was followed up 3 months after the end of the treatment.
