Publications
Skin temperature response to cryotherapyLinda S Chesterton
Physiotherapy Department, Coventry University, Coventry, UK
Arch Phys Med Rehabil 83:543-9. 2002..To compare the localized skin-cooling effects of 2 cryotherapy modalities and to review the clinical relevance of the results...
Gender differences in pressure pain threshold in healthy humansLinda S Chesterton
Department of Physiotherapy Studies, McKay Building, Keele University, University Park, Staffordshire, ST5 5BG, England, UK
Pain 101:259-66. 2003..AIMS OF INVESTIGATION: To quantify the magnitude of putative gender differences in experimental pressure pain threshold (PPT), and to establish the relevance of repeated measurements to any such differences...
Effects of TENS frequency, intensity and stimulation site parameter manipulation on pressure pain thresholds in healthy human subjectsLinda S Chesterton
Department of Physiotherapy Studies, Keele University, Staffordshire ST5 5BG, UK
Pain 106:73-80. 2003..CONCLUSIONS: The role of TENS frequency, intensity and site are pivotal to achieving optimal hypoalgesic effects, during and after stimulation. Clinical applications of these parameter combinations require further investigations...
Interrater reliability of algometry in measuring pressure pain thresholds in healthy humans, using multiple ratersLinda S Chesterton
Primary Care Musculoskeletal Research Centre, Keele University, Staffordshire, UK
Clin J Pain 23:760-6. 2007..To evaluate interrater reliability using 5 newly trained observers in the assessment of pressure pain threshold (PPT) using a fixed-angle algometer...
Sensory stimulation (TENS): effects of parameter manipulation on mechanical pain thresholds in healthy human subjectsLinda S Chesterton
Department of Physiotherapy Studies, Keele University, Staffordshire ST5 5BG, UK
Pain 99:253-62. 2002..Stimulation at a combination of the two sites did not produce any greater hypoalgesic effects. These results may have implications for the clinical use of sensory stimulation...
Effects of intensity of electroacupuncture upon experimental pain in healthy human volunteers: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studyPanos Barlas
School of Health and Rehabilitation, Keele University, Staffordshire ST5 5BG, UK
Pain 122:81-9. 2006..The control group displayed stable PPT readings over time. No significant differences were observed between the placebo and control groups. These findings suggest that high-intensity levels may be important in optimal dose selection...
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation for the management of tennis elbow: a pragmatic randomized controlled trial: the TATE trial (ISRCTN 87141084)Linda S Chesterton
Arthritis Research Campaign National Primary Care Centre, Keele University, Staffordshire ST5 5BG, UK
BMC Musculoskelet Disord 10:156. 2009..It also benefits from being patient controlled, thereby promoting self-management. This study aims to assess the effectiveness, in terms of pain relief, and cost-effectiveness of a self-management package of treatment that includes TENS...
Effects of simultaneous dual-site TENS stimulation on experimental painLeica S Claydon
School of Physiotherapy, University of Otago, P O Box 56, Dunedin, New Zealand
Eur J Pain 12:696-704. 2008..These results reaffirm that high-intensity stimulation (regardless of frequency) is of fundamental importance in effective dosage...
