Preparation of artificial blood-circulation system and application of ELF electromagnetic fields to effective blood-flow controls

摘要

It is strongly desired that therapies utilizing extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic fields can be made applicable with the use of medical machines and assisting devices. Up to the present, most of these are adapted to a commercialized power-frequency (50/60 Hz) alternating magnetic field. Previously, we reported the designs of two instruments equipped with frequency-switching elements to show the broad potential opportunities in blood massotherapy by electromagnetic stimulations. In this study, we prepared an original blood-circulation system and tried to find the optimum frequency for the most effective improvement of blood flows.
