Abstract:
The authors analyzed the results of treating 75 patients with post-stroke arthropathies by transcutaneous nervous stimulation (TNS) and by some other kinds of low frequency electrotherapy. A method of TNS in post-stroke arthropathies was elaborated. A comparison of the effect of TNS with that of diadynamic (DC) and sinusoidal-modulated (SMC) currents showed no significant advantage of the analgesic action of TNS as against the analgesic action of DC and SMC when used in post-stroke arthropathies. TNS was shown to have a weak effect on tissue trophicity.
