PTI electrodes
Question | Answer: Indications | Why? |
---|---|---|
AC symmetric biphaseic | 2 electrodes (small area) | release opiates (due to uncomfortable response), overwhelm pain signal by stimulating other mechanoreceptors |
AC assymetric biphasic | MS contraction (innervated ms) Pain (secondary) | release opiates (due to uncomfortable response), overwhelm pain signal by stimulating other mechanoreceptors.Builds on ions, bec it is assymetric |
Pre mod | 2 Electrode pain small area | *release opiates (due to uncomfortable response), overwhelm pain signal by stimulating other mechanoreceptors.Builds on ions, bec it is assymetric(goes deeper) |
Quad | 4 electrodes pain medium area | *release opiates (due to uncomfortable response), overwhelm pain signal by stimulating other mechanoreceptors.Builds on ions, bec it is assymetric(goes deeper) |
Quad vector | 4 electrode pain medium area even larger than quad but not all machines have this option | *release opiates (due to uncomfortable response), overwhelm pain signal by stimulating other mechanoreceptors.Builds on ions, bec it is assymetric(goes deeper) |
stereo | 6 pain large area | *release opiates (due to uncomfortable response), overwhelm pain signal by stimulating other mechanoreceptors.Builds on ions, bec it is assymetric(goes deeper) |
DC | MEDS dennervated | ions, ms contraction, stimulationg the ms not the nerve |
Peripheral nerve DC | Dennervated | |
Spinal cord AC | Innervated | |
high volt DC | wound healing, edema, NOT pushing meds, pushing ions | pushes edema away (edema contains negative ions) |
Russian | MS contraction (innervated) more comfortable and stonger, Pain, secondary | burst, builds up ions for stimulationg the nerve |
tetanic frequence | 33-55 | |
edma charge and black wire charge | negative |
