Randomised clinical trial: transabdominal interferential electrical stimulation vs sham stimulation in women with functional constipation.
Judith S MoorePeter R GibsonRebecca Elizabeth BurgellPublished in: Alimentary pharmacology & therapeutics (2020)
Transabdominal interferential electrical stimulation is effective in reducing constipation in adult women. Three months after therapy, response is maintained and quality of life improved. Not allowing currents to cross intra-abdominally was an effective placebo. (Australianclinicaltrials.gov.au ACTRN12614000736640).
