Cutaneous sensory threshold stimulation with high frequency square-wave current. I. The relationship of electrode dimensions to the sensory threshold.
Numerous methods of studying the sensibility of the skin have been reported. Martin (1) described the threshold of faradic break shocks; Ollendorf (2) used hair strokes, pin pricks, heat and pressure with a probe in normal and abnormal skin to determine differences in sensation; Mayr (3) utilized the pressure of a water manometer on normal and syphilitic skin; Hardy and Wolff (4) introduced the...
متن کاملCutaneous sensory threshold stimulation with high frequency square-wave current. II. The relationship of body site and of skin diseases to the sensory threshold.
Potelunas, Meixner and Hardy (1) suggested the possibility that the pain threshold was not uniform in all areas of the body when they found wide variation in such thresholds in normal and pathological skin. Bishop (2) reported that the number, distribution and accessibility of the sensory receptors of the skin varied in different areas. The cutaneous sensory threshold was shown by the author (3...
متن کاملPrick Threshold Stimulation with Square-Wave Current
Threshold sensory stimulation of the skin has become the object of increasingly intensive investigation since the classic report by Hardy, Wolff and Goodell' on the pain threshold of thermal radiation. The literature on the subject is rapidly becoming voluminous with interesting ramifications appearing in many fields of medicine. More recently Cormia3 reported on the itch threshold in experimen...
متن کاملAsymmetric Rectangular Waveform in Stimulation with High Frequency Alternating Current Reduces the Threshold for Neural Conduction Block
Introduction Abnormal neural impulses in the nervous system may lead to various diseases and disabilities. High frequency alternating currents (HFAC) has been used to block the propagation of such impulses and improve the symptoms or disabilities. The technique is safe, reversible, and relatively selective, and its reliability, the optimum stimulation parameters, and elimination of the onset re...
