[Stimulant current diagnosis and therapy with pulsed currents]

Abstract

Thanks to its efficiency and versatility, and the fact that it has none of the frequently negative side-effects of drugs, stimulant-current therapy has become rapidly more important. The use of defined stimulant-current pulses also enables the condition of neuromuscular system to be described accurately in terms of measurements--a valuable diagnostic aid and therapeutic monitoring facility. The method, procedure and criteria for its use, and some special therapies, are described.
