NCT06158568 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 59

Last updated 2024-04-30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Based on the available literature, application of percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation interventions targeting peripheral nerves (also called percutaneous neuromodulation) has shown positive effects for improving pain-related and functional outcomes in musculoskeletal chronic pain. Studies investigating the use of this intervention for the shoulder are lacking.
