Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Patients presenting to the ED with a chief complaint of acute low back pain and whom the providing physician feels symptomatic treatment is appropriate in the ED will be screened for inclusion in the study. The purpose of the study is to compare Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) as an adjunct to ibuprofen in the treatment of acute low back pain in the emergency department. Therefore, the aim of this prospective, randomized, double blind study is to evaluate the efficacy of ED administered TENS in acute low back pain patients during their ED visit.
