Summary

Evaluate the difference in opioid use, pain intensity and pain interference in patients with moderate to severe low back pain using DuoTherm multimodal harmonic mechanical stimulation (M-Stim) unit compared to Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS)

Conditions

  • Opioid Use
  • Low Back Pain

Interventions

DEVICE

M-Stim

The casing for the device is a 54" belt with 3-button haptic controller for on-off, therapy cycles(8) and intensity(5) levels.

DEVICE

TENS

LG SMART TENS stimulator is a portable electrotherapy devcie featuring transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) therapeutic device, which is used for pain relief. The stimulator sends a gentle electrical current to underlying nerves and muscle groups via electrodes applied on the skin. The parameters of the device are controlled by buttons on a controller with an adjustable intensity level.
