The treatments are FREMS (Frequency Rhythmic Electrical Modulated System) or TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation). \n\nBoth FREMS and TENS give electrical pulses delivered through stickers on the skin. The nature of these pulses is different between FREMS and TENS, resulting in different biological effects on pain and different responses (short term pain reductions for TENS, usually days, and 3-4 months for FREMS).",{"url":73,"width":60,"height":74},"frems-content-image-8-1000w.png",653,{},{"type":66,"settings":77,"text":78,"title":79,"image":80,"links":82,"sectionSettings":86},{"imgWidth":68,"imgPosition":69},"If you are considering taking part in the FREMS-PDPN Study, please follow the link below to open the FREMS-PDPN Participant Information Tool.
