WHAT IS MNES
ITS THE APPLICTAION OF CONINOUS OR INTERMINTENT OR MONOPHASIC CURRENT OVER LOW INTENSITY ON THE SKIN WITH LESS THAN 1 MA
WHAT TYPE OF CURRENT DOES MNES DELIVER
MICROAMPERAGE CURRENT (MONOPHASIC OR BIPHASIC)
What is the arnold shulz law
weak stimuli increases physiologic activity
and very strog stimuli abolishes or inhibits the activity
beckers theory
.tissue is mainted by direct current electrical system
. a shift in the current happens when the tissue is injured
.this shift is called CURRENT OF INJURY
. MET is used to treat while TENS is not used
microcurrent and wound healing
the electtical pattern in thehuman is btw the straitum cornuem amd the dermis
injury current occurs due to wound caused by trauma
the mnes immitates the normla biological electrical currents in our body to heal the wound
galvonotexy effect
galvano.. flat current production in the form of monophasic wave
taxis… movemrnt of cathode or anode
sooooo in general applying monophasic currents to the positive or negative cells in the wounded area stimulates galvanotaxic effect
effects of mnes
galvanotaxy antiseptic restoring metabolic process promote atp detoxification improve blood circulation and nutrient distribution
in antiseptic effect what currents inhibit the growth of bacteria
monophasic current and mnes
current properties
frequency is 1hz on time...0.5 sec amplitude,,, 1000 or 1 ma voltage.. 60v waveform... continous or monophasic
what is the negatice pole and the positive pole used for in mnes respectively
positive pole… pain control
negative pole is for.. sclerotic effect
why is the choice of poles important
to speed up the healing processb
what happens in the negativley charged cells
eg are macophae and neutrophils
happens in inflammatroy phase
the cells move toward to anodal area for preffered wound healing
what happens in the positively charged phase
t
used in two phases…
1, proliferative phase… potive cells like fibroblast move towards the cathode and from collagen
2. remodeling phase.. postive keratinocyte and epidermal goes to the cathode perfrom maturation of the wound
wallace protocol for mnes
for pain.. 30hz 5min and 600 micor ampere
for wound healing.. 3hz..5min and 600 ma
indications
wound healing headaches or migrane low back pain epicondylitis piriformis syndrome myofascial pain spots arthritic conditions delayed union in fractures
contraindictaions
