direct current galvanic Flashcards
electrostimulation of galvanic currents include
low frequncey current
high frequncy ,,
intermeditate frequency current
under low frequncy currents we have
galvanic tens faradic sinosudial didanamic
what low current was used in 1888
sinosudial
electrical curents with zero frequncy flowing in the same direction is called what
direct current
what type of current is a direct current
monophasic current
chemical effects of direct current
iontophoresis
meducal galvansim
surgical galvanisim
interpolar and polar falls under what effect of DC
PHYSIOLOGICAL
INTENDED USES FOR CHEMICAL EFFECTS
TO LOCALIZE THE CHEMICAL SUBSTANCE TO THE DESIRED PLACE OFTHE BODY
ADMINISTRING UNWANTED SUBSTANCE THROUGH THE SKIN
to increase the effect
of that substance by storing substances
that are absorbed very slowly.
PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECT
• Current pushes ions through the
electrode from the skin layers to
the treated area.
IN IONTOPHORESIS WHAT KINDA DEVICE IS USED
THE ONE THAT GIVE S A CONSTANT GALVANIC CURRENT
THE MAXIMUM CURRENT INTENSITY IS 5MA
TREATMENT TIME FOR IONTHOPHORESIS IS
15…30 MIN
DOSE ADJUSTMENT IS RELATED TO WHAT
