Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Pressure Pain Threshold | Pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) change score measured in kilopascal (kPa) will be assessed on the forearm using a pressure algometer. The pressure algometer is mechanical pressure applied by the research assistant at a gradual rate by pushing the device against the skin. The device has a 1 cm2 pad that is in contact with the skin. The subject has a button that they push when the pressure first becomes painful (threshold)which stops the test and the pressure amount is recorded by the research assistant. This is the amount of pressured in kPa that is required to cause a subjective pain of 1/10 on a scale of 0 (no Pain) to 10 (Maximum Pain) rating by the subject. The change score from day 1 to Day 5 is the primary outcome measure. | Pre TENS and post TENS at initial (day 1) and final (day 5) study visit |
