didanamic current

Question 1

5 diadynamic wave forms

Answer 1

diaphase fixe 
monophase fixe
courtes period 
longues periods 
syncopal rythm

Question 2

diaphase fixe characteristics

Answer 2

100 hz frequency 
tickling sensation and muscle contraction occurs at high intensities 
has analgesic effects
used initally to start treatments
used in sympathetic ganglia

Question 3

monophase fixe characteris

Answer 3

frequency of 50 hz
used in connective tissue stimulation and in painful conditions
strong vibe is felt during application

Question 4

cortes fixe characteristics

Answer 4

no break rest

used in trophic and painful conditions that are not associated with spasms after trauma

Question 5

long periods characte

Answer 5

formed by the alternating application of diaphasic and monophasic fixe
has long lasting analgesic effects
used in nueralgia and myalgia
includes 10 sec of df followed by 5 secs of mf

Question 6

ryhtm syncopal

Answer 6

has a contraction effect on the muscle and nerves
Same with monophosic but transition time is different
Has rest

Question 7

asides DF the duration should last for

Answer 7

2-5 minutes and shouldnt exceed 10-12 minutes

Question 8

CIRCULATORY DISORDERS ANd the didynamic used

Answer 8

raynauds disease 
buerger
arterosclerosis obliterans 
heir 
use df and ccp to fix

Question 9

circulation disorders

Answer 9

raynauds phenomenon
varicose pain
buergers disease

Question 10

indications for didanamic

Answer 10

radiculopathy .. pinching of nerve root in the spinal column .. includes pain weakness and tingling with numbness
neuralgia
sudecks atrophy.. chronic pain that affects distal regions

Question 11

low frequency currents whose frequncies are modulated is

Answer 11

didanamic current

Question 12

the cp ,lp and rs wave forms are derived from what

Answer 12

combination of df and mf wave forms

Question 13

in pathological situations the type of didanamic current should be selected accorfing to what

Answer 13

thier effcts

Question 14

effects of diadynamic

Answer 14

physiological and therapuetic

Question 15

physiological effect

Answer 15

has more hyperemia and pain relief

main effect for treatment is the painful condition associated with musculoskeletal system

Question 16

therapuetic effects

Answer 16

•It has a strong inhibitory or analgesic effect on
sensory nerves. it causes depolarization of the
sensory or motor nerve fibers depending on the
current intensity.
•While a strong inhibitory or analgesic effect is
created through the sensory nerves, excitatory
effects occur in the skeletal muscles that are
electrically stimulated through the motor nerves.
•The real therapeutic effect is the modulation of
pain as a result of a combination of inhibitory
and excitatory effects.

Question 17

current intensity in all current types should be set at a value between

Answer 17

perception and pain threshold

Question 18

dosage

Answer 18

duration…nor more than 12 min each type for 3 min
frequency … daily or every other day for 12 sessions
df 2min mf 1 min cp or lp till the end or 8 min

Question 19

didanamic it can be applied on nerves
