The placebo effect of transcutaneous electrical stimulation.

Gudni Thorsteinsson¹, Henry H Stonnington, Keith G Stillwell, Lila R Elveback.

Abstract

The placebo effect of transcutaneous electrical stimulation was studied in 93 patients in a double-blind cross-over trial using a genuine stimulator and a placebo machine. Placebo analgesic effect occurred in 32% of trials, as compared with 48% for actual stimulation. The placebo effect of the transcutaneous electrical stimulator is similar to the placebo effect that is noted in other double-blind studies in which medications are used.
