Pain relief by the method of prolonged electrification. application of transistor generators
Abstract
The analgesic effect of a weak electric current has been known for a long time. According to modern biophysical concepts, it is associated with depolarization of pain receptor membranes, with a decrease in their sensitivity [7]. Depolarization of membranes occurs mainly during the passage of an electric current or exposure to voltage. Consequently, the effect of various kinds of short-term electro-procedures is most likely a manifestation of the aftereffect of depolarization.
