User Manual – PhysioGo.Lite Electro page 78 / 96
9.1.11 Triangular impulses
biological impact: muscle stimulation
therapeutic application:
• electrostimulation of smooth muscular coat, e.g. electro-stimulation in case of post-surgical atonia of
bladder and intestines, treatment of spastic and atonic constipation
• electrostimulation of denervated skeleton muscles
• electro diagnostics, plotting the I/t curve
9.1.12 Neofaradic currents
biological impact:
• activation of muscles through unimpaired peripheral nerves to increase contraction force and sensory
consciousness
• obtaining correct movement patterns
• support of the central nervous system in adapting new patterns
therapeutic application:
• prevention of muscle atrophy
• muscle training (increase in strength and endurance)
• muscle reeducation
• maintaining or increasing the range of movement
• increasing local blood flow in the muscle
• muscle relaxation
• preventing thrombosis after surgeries
