4 Physiotherapy Need of physiological equipments Physiotherapy
Lecture-23 Physiotherapy Need of physiological equipments Physiotherapy Physical stimulus in the form of heat Simple heat radiation Application of high frequency Shortwave therapy Microwave Ultrasonic wave Principle of HF heat therapy- a) dipole molecules of the body are placed randomly b) they rotate or align according to the polarity of their charge in the direction of the field lines VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

5 Merits of physiotherapy-
when the HF energy is utilized to get physical stimulus in the form of heat than that sort of physiotherapy is referred as thermotherapy Merits of physiotherapy- Considerable penetration of heat as compared with simple heat applications. Uniform heating of deeper lying tissues i.e deep heating directly in the tissues of the body ( Muscles, bones, internal organs) No burning of skin, No injury, Non traumatic VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

6 Permits localization of the heat to the region that has to be treated
Merits of physiotherapy- No discomfort and skin burns even before adequate heat has penetrated to the deeper tissues like conventional techniques such as hot towels, IR lamps, heating pads Treatment can be controlled precisely by controlling amount of heat to be required. Permits localization of the heat to the region that has to be treated HF energy for heating is obtained by various equipments HF of MHz(27.12MHz, 11m) VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

7 DIATHERMY ‘Diathermy' means 'through heating' or producing deep heating directly in the tissues of the body. Externally applied sources of heat like hot towels, infrared lamps and electric heating pads often produce discomfort and skin burns long before adequate heat has penetrated to the deeper tissues. In diathermy technique, the subject's body becomes a part of the electrical circuit and the heat is produced within the body and not transferred through the skin VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

8 Electrotherapy Need of Electrotherapy equipments
The biological reactions produced due to Low volt, low freq. Impulse currents The biological reactions are adopted in this therapy for the management of many diseases affecting muscles and nerves. The technique is used for- The treatment of paralysis with totally or partially degenerated muscles The treatment of pain, muscular spasm, peripheral circulatory disturbances VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

9 Electrotherapy Typical i-t curves of a normal muscle and degenerated muscle. The curve shows that decreasing excitability with progressive degeneration requires extended stimulation times and increased current strength for achieving successful stimulation The chronaxie and rheobase can be easily read from the i-t curves. The rheobase is the minimum intensity of current that will produce a response if the stimulus is of infinite duration, in practice an impulse of 100 ms being adequate for estimating this. The chronaxie is the min. duration of impulse that will produce a response with a current of double the rheobase. For example if the rheobase is 6 mA, the chronaxie is the duration of the shortest impulse that will produce a muscle contraction with a current of 12 mA. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

10 Electrotherapy Different types of current impulses used in
Galvanic current Interrupted Galvanic current Faradic current Surging or faradic surge currents Exponentially progressive current Biphasic stimulation VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

11 Electrotherapy: Current waveforms
Current waveforms normally employed in electrodiagnosis and electrotherapy: galvanic Faradic Exponential Rectangular pulse with adjustable slope Surged Faradic. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

12 The most commonly used pulse waveforms are discussed below.
1. Galvanic Current: : A steady flow of direct current is passed through a tissue, its effect is primarily chemical. It causes the movement of ions and their collection at the skin areas lying immediately beneath the electrodes. The effect is manifested most clearly in a bright red coloration. It is an expression of hyperaemia (increased blood flow). Galvanic current / direct current/ galvanism/ continuous current / constant current. Used for the – Preliminary treatment of atonic paralysis Treatment of disturbance in the blood flow. Iontophores Int. of drugs into the body thr. the skin by electrolytic means.) The intensity of the current passed thr any part of the body < 0.3 to 0.5 ma/cm 2. The duration of the treatment is generally 10–20 minutes. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

13 The most commonly used pulse waveforms are discussed below.
2. Faradic Current: : Faradic Current: It is a sequence of pulses with a defined shape and current intensity The pulse duration is about 1 ms with a triangular waveform Interval = 20msec Duration of about 20 minutes. It acts upon muscle tissue and upon the motor nerves to produce muscle contractions. There is no ion transfer and consequently, no chemical effect. Used for the treatment of muscle weakness after lengthy immobilization Used in Disuse atrophy. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

14 The most commonly used pulse waveforms are discussed below.
3. Surged Faradic Current: : Surging Current: The resulting shape of the current waveform is called a surging current when The peak current intensity applied to the patient increases and decreases rhythmically along with the rate of increase and decrease of the peak amplitude is slow Application of the Faradic surge current – The treatment of functional paralysis. The treatment of spasm and pain. The surge rate is usually from 6-60 surges/min. in most of the inst. The ratio of interval to the duration of the surging is also adjustable so that graded exercise may be administered VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

15 The most commonly used pulse waveforms are discussed below.
4. Exponentially Progressive Current: :  Useful for the treatment of severe paralysis for the treatment of the paralysed muscles The main advantage of this method lies in the possibility of providing selective stimulation. This means that the surrounding healthy tissues even in the immediate neighbourhood of the diseased muscles are not stimulated The slope of the exponential pulse is kept variable. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

16 Biphasic Stimulation:
Other type of pulse Biphasic Stimulation: : The cell recovery from the effect of a stimulus current can be hastened by the passage of a lower intensity current of opposing polarity over a longer period so that the net quantity of electricity is zero. Combination of positive and negative pulses is called biphasic stimulation. The stimulating pulse may be followed by a pulse of opposite polarity of one-tenth the amplitude and 10 times the width. Biphasic stimulation also helps to neutralize the polarization of the recording electrodes in case silver-silver chloride electrodes are not used. This means that there are no electrolytic effects, nor are any macroscopic changes affecting either the skin or the electrodes observed. Also, there is reduced muscle fatigue, since each current pulse is immediately followed by an opposite current phase of the same magnitude. The stimulation current intensity required during treatment is less as compared with monophasic currents. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

17 Features of Electrotherapy:
To manage many diseases affecting muscles and nerves For the treatment of paralysis with totally or partially degenerated muscles Used for the treatment of pain, muscular spasm Widely used with availability of safe and simplified equipments Apparatus are either of constant voltage or constant current types Several types of commercial units are available which gives specific output waveforms for specific applications VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

Devices produce output current waveforms to cover the whole range of electro-diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities Modern electro-therapy units are up/uc controlled with automatic self test, automatic settings of the basic programs and also possible to indicate operating errors on the visual display VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

19 Stimulators refers to an external influence
Electrical, mechanical or chemical All cells are sensitive to some degree to artificial electrical stimulation(Cells may depolarized and repolarised) The physiological action of stimulation depends on the passage of current across the cell membrane Stimulators are the devices- To stimulate innervated, denervated muscles and nerves For the treatment of paralysis with totally or partially denervated muscles For the treatment of pain, muscular spasms and peripheral circulatory disturbances VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

24 Stimulators Other stimulators 3. Transcutaneous electrical Nerve stimulator(TENS) Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) therapy involves the use of low-voltage electric currents to treat pain. Electrodes or mediums for electricity to travel to the body, placed on the body at the site of pain deliver electricity that travels through the nerve fibers. The electric currents block the pain receptors from being sent from the nerves to the brain. A patient will receive a small, battery operated TENS machine to use at home. In most cases, a doctor, physical therapist, or acupuncturist adjusts the machine to the correct settings. The provider shows the patient how to use the machine before sending him or her home with the TENS device. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

25 Osteoporosis-related joint, bone, or muscle problems
Stimulators TENS therapy can be used to treat both chronic (long lasting) and acute (short-term) pain. The most common conditions that TENS therapy is used to treat are: Osteoporosis-related joint, bone, or muscle problems Fibromyalgia-related joint, bone, or muscle problems Tendinitis (muscle tissue inflammation) Bursitis (inflammation of the fluid-filled pads that cushion the joints) Neck pain Labor pain Cancer pain VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

116 CARDIAC PACEMAKER : Fixed Rate Pacemaker: This type of pacemaker is intended for patients having permanent heart blocks. The rate is pre-set, say at 70 bpm. The rate can be varied externally in implanted units by magnetically actuating a built-in relay. Since the fixed rate pacemaker functions regardless of the patients' natural heart rhythm, it poses a potential danger because of competition between the patients' rhythm and that of the pacemaker. Demand Pacemaker: These pacemakers have gradually almost replaced the fixed rate pacemakers because they avoid competition between the heart's natural rhythm and the pacemaker rhythm. The demand unit functions only when the R-R intervals of the natural rhythm exceed a pre-set limit. R wave Triggered Pacemaker: The ventricular synchronized demand type (R wave triggered) pacemaker is meant for patients who are generally in heart block with occasional sinus rhythm. The pacemaker detects ventricular activity (R wave of ECG) and stimulates the ventricles after a very short delay time of some milliseconds. If there is sinus rhythm, the stimulating impulse will occur in the ventricular de-polarization. If there is asystole, the unit will stimulate the heart after a pre-set time. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

117 CARDIAC PACEMAKER : Ventricular Inhibited or R Wave Blocked Pacemaker: The ventricular inhibited type (R wave blocked) pacemaker is meant for patients who generally have sinus rhythm with occasional heart block. The circuitry detects spontaneous R wave potentials at the electrodes and the pacemaker provides a stimulus to the heart after pre-set asystole. However, in the case of ventricular activity, the R-wave does not trigger the output circuit of the pacemaker but blocks the output circuit and no stimulation impulse is given to the heart. Atrial Triggered Pacemaker: This is a R wave triggered or atrial triggered pacemaker. The pacemaker detects the atrial de-polarization and starts the pulse forming circuits after a delay so that the impulse to the ventricles is delivered after a suitable PR interval. The major advantage of this pacemaker is its ability to provide maximum augmentation of cardiac output at changing atrial rates to meet various physiological requirements. Dual Chamber Pacemakers: These devices are capable of treating the majority of those patients who suffer from diseases of the sino-atrial node by providing atrial stimulation whenever needed. In these devices, both the atria and the ventricles are sensed and stimulated as needed while maintaining proper synchronization of the upper and lower chambers. Rate–adaptive features available with dual chamber pacemakers include the automatic adjustment of stimulus intensity and gains for the various sensing channels.

The antenna is usually in the shape of a coil housed within the pacemaker, Acoustic-ultrasonic pressure waves from a suitable transducer placed over the skin, can penetrate the human body. They are received by a suitable receiver in the pacemaker which carries out the desired function.

125 NEED FOR A DEFIBRILLATOR
Ventricular fibrillation is a serious cardiac emergency resulting from asynchronous contraction of the heart muscles. Due to ventricular fibrillation, there is an irregular rapid heart rhythm. Fig. Ventricular fibrillation Fig. Normal heart beat VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

126 Ventricular fibrillation can be converted into a more
Cont… Ventricular fibrillation can be converted into a more efficient rhythm by applying a high energy shock to the heart. This sudden surge across the heart causes all muscle fibres to contract simultaneously. Possibly, the fibres may then respond to normal physiological pace making pulses. The instrument for administering the shock is called a DEFIBRILLATOR. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

127 Purpouse of defibillation
Defibrillation is performed to correct life-threatening fibrillations of the heart, which could result in cardiac arrest. It should be performed immediately after identifying that the patient is experiencing a cardiac emergency, has no pulse, and is unresponsive. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

128 Principle Of Defibrillation
Energy storage capacitor is charged at relatively slow rate from AC line. Energy stored in capacitor is then delivered at a relatively rapid rate to chest of the patient. Simple arrangement involve the discharge of capacitor energy through the patient’s own resistance. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

129 CARDIAC DEFIBRILLATORS
AC DEFIBRILLATION CARDIAC DEFIBRILLATORS Applying a brief(.25 to 1 sec) burst of 50 HZ ac at an intensity of around 6 A. This application of an electrical shock to resynchronize the heart is sometimes called counter shock. If the patient does not respond, the burst is repeated until defibrillation occurs. this method is known as ac defibrillation. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

130 CARDIAC DEFIBRILLATORS
DC Defibrillation CARDIAC DEFIBRILLATORS In this method a capacitor is charged to a high dc voltage and then rapidly discharged. The amount of energy discharged by the capacitor may range between 2 to 400joules with peak value of current 20A. A corrective shock of volts is applied within a tenth of a second .

133 PRINCIPLE OF DEFIBRILLATOR
Energy storage capacitor is charged at relatively slow rate from AC line.    Energy stored in capacitor is then delivered at a relatively rapid rate to chest of the patient.   Simple arrangement involve the discharge of capacitor energy through the patient’s own resistance.  VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

134 Cont….. The discharge resistance which the patient represents is roughly a ohmic resistance of 50 – 100 ohms for a typical electrode size of 80cm2. The particular wave form is called “Lown” wave form. The pulse width of this waveform is 10ms. VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

135 Manual external defibrillator Electrodes placed directly around the heart area of chest. Higher Voltage required than internal defibrillator. Classified as Monophasic Biphasic VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

136 Monophasic waveform Defibrillators
Deliver current of one polarity. Current travels in one direction through the patients heart from one paddle to another. 2 types :- The monophasic damped sinusoidal waveform (MDS) returns to zero gradually Monophasic truncated exponential waveform (MTE) current is abruptly returned to baseline (truncated) to zero current flow VM Umale Dept. of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering
