Treatment of soft-tissue injuries by pulsed electrical energy.
Twenty pairs of patients matched for sex, age, weight, and degree of trauma were treated either with an active Diapulse machine emitting pulsed, high-frequency electrical energy or with a non-active placebo machine. They were examined for swelling, pain, and disability before treatment and after three days under double-blind conditions. The results show that the pulsed, high-frequency electrica...
متن کاملElectrical Stimulation in Tissue Regeneration
That human body generates biological electric field and current is a well-known natural phenomenon. In 1983, electrical potentials ranging between 10 and 60 mV at various locations of the human body were measured by Barker (Foulds & Barker, 1983), who also located the so-called epidermal or skin “battery” inside the living layer of the epidermis. Naturally occurred electrical field in human bod...
متن کاملChronic dermal ulcer healing enhanced with monophasic pulsed electrical stimulation.
The purposes of this randomized, double-blind, multicenter study were to compare healing of chronic dermal ulcers treated with pulsed electrical stimulation with healing of similar wounds treated with sham electrical stimulation and to evaluate patient tolerance to the therapeutic protocol. Forty-seven patients, aged 29 to 91 years, with 50 stage II, III, and IV ulcers were randomly assigned to...
متن کاملBiomimetic Electrical Stimulation for Cardiac Tissue Engineering
A major challenge of tissue engineering is directing cells to establish the physiological structure and function of the tissue being replaced. Electrical stimulation has been used to induce synchronous contractions of cultured cardiac constructs. The hypothesis adopted for this study is that functional cardiac constructs can be engineered by "mimicking" the conditions present during cardiac dev...
متن کاملImplantable Tissue Regeneration System Using Electrical Stimulation
We introduce three implantable tissue regeneration systems; an implantable cell graft culture system, an implantable electrical stimulation system for bone regeneration, and a liquid crystal polymer (LCP)based bone regeneration device. These devices allow electrical stimulation to stem cell grafts under in vivo circumstances. After a cell culture using the implantable cell graft culture system,...
