Conflicting reports have appeared in the literature concerning the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on skin temperature. This report studied 33 patients with chronic pain involving one extremity (13 upper, 20 lower) to determine whether changes in sympathetic tone, as reflected in skin temperature, occurred in response to electrical stimulation of painful areas. Stimulation was carried out for 20 to 45 minutes. Skin temperatures were measured from the thumbs or great toes of stimulated and contralateral extremities before and during stimulation. Skin temperature rose 2.5 +/- 0.7 (mean +/- SEM) in both the ipsilateral and contralateral extremity in patients who experienced relief of pain during stimulation. There was no significant change in skin temperature in patients who experienced no relief.
关于经皮电神经刺激对皮肤温度的影响，文献中出现了相互矛盾的报道。本报告研究了33例患有累及一个肢体慢性疼痛的患者（13例上肢，20例下肢），以确定在对疼痛部位进行电刺激时，皮肤温度所反映的交感神经张力是否发生变化。刺激持续20至45分钟。在刺激前和刺激期间，测量受刺激肢体和对侧肢体拇指或大脚趾的皮肤温度。在刺激期间疼痛缓解的患者中，同侧和对侧肢体的皮肤温度均升高2.5 +/- 0.7（平均值 +/- 标准误）。在未缓解疼痛的患者中，皮肤温度没有显著变化。
