NCT ID NCT06153277

First seen Jan 07, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study looks at whether swelling after knee replacement surgery changes the settings needed for a TENS machine, a device that uses mild electrical pulses to relieve pain. Researchers will test 125 adults before and after their knee surgery, measuring how much electrical current is needed to feel tingling or muscle contraction. The goal is to understand if swelling makes the tissue more resistant to electricity, which could help doctors adjust TENS treatments more effectively.
