What is TENS vs. Opioids for Hysteroscopy Pain Relief about?

This study compares the effectiveness of high-frequency, high-intensity transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) versus intravenous opioids for pain relief after hysteroscopy. Results indicate that both treatments significantly reduce pain, but TENS responders spent less time in the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) compared to opioid responders. The findings suggest that TENS may be a preferable first-line treatment for postoperative pain management, potentially reducing the need for opioids.
