Official title
Impact of Direct Current Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation on Physical Therapy Treatment of Peripheral Neuropathy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will compare two methods of electrical stimulation (alternating current and direct current) as an adjunctive therapy to treating peripheral neuropathy. Both types of electrical stimulation have been used in clinical practice for physical therapy, however direct current stimulation is much less common and there is less known about their impact on physical therapy outcomes. The aim of this project is to show the efficacy of a novel device, the Neubie direct current device, compared to traditional TENS unit, in clinical physical therapy treatment of neuropathy. Outcomes measured will include three methods of two-point discrimination, vibration sense, pain, and score on the modified Toronto Clinical Neuropathy scale.
