Based on the previous finding that 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) co-exists with norepinephrine (NE) in cerebrovascular sympathetic nerve fibers and can be released during electrical nerve stimulation, the postjunctional interaction between the two amines was studied in isolated basilar artery of guinea pig. A low concentration of 5-HT, which in itself has little or no constrictive effect, potentiated the weak contraction of NE by almost 300%. The amplification was antagonized by methiothepin, but not by ketanserin, and it could be mimicked by methysergide. The marked potentiation is thus probably associated with the 5-HT1-like receptors, which earlier have been found to mediate the direct vasoconstrictive action of 5-HT in this vessel preparation.

Pendahuluan. Nyeri Punggung Bawah (NPB) merupakan suatu permasalahan yang paling sering ditemukan di masyarakat. Etiologinya tergolong kompleks dan dapat disebabkan oleh berbagai hal. Salah satu pilihan penatalaksanaan NPB adalah dengan terapi TENS. Tujuan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui efektifitas terapi TENS pada pasien NPB di RSUD dr. M Haulussy Ambon. Metode. Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah pretest–posttest design, dengan mengukur skala Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) sebelum dan setelah 5 kali terapi TENS. Jumlah subjek yang memenuhi kriteria sebanyak 71 dengan perbandingan laki-laki dan perempuan adalah 1:2. Hasil. Hasil uji Marginal Homogenity memperlihatkan perbedaan signifikansi sebelum dan setelah 5 kali terapi TENS (p = 0,000). Kesimpulan. TENS efektif dalam meredakan nyeri pada pasien NPB. Kata Kunci: Nyeri Punggung Bawah, TENS
