We use nucleon-nucleon phase shifts obtained from experimental data, together with the chiral expansion for the long-distance part of the NN interaction, to obtain information about the short-distance piece of the NN potential that is at work in the 1S0 channel. We find that if the scale R that defines the separation between long- and short- distance is chosen to be lsim 1.8 fm then the energy dependence produced by short-distance dynamics is well approximated by a two-term polynomial for Tlab < 200 MeV. We also find that a quantitative description of NN dynamics is possible, at least in this channel, if one treats the long-distance parts of the chiral NN potential in perturbation theory. However, in order to achieve this we have to choose a separation scale R that is larger than 1.0 fm.
