Respiratory compromise: a rare complication of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation for angina pectoris.

C J Mann1.   

Abstract

Electrical stimulation of any muscle group may produce tetany. If the intercostal muscles are involved this may lead to respiratory embarrasment. A case is presented in which transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) treatment for angina pectoris resulted in respiratory arrest.
