METHOD FOR CUTANEOUS ELECTRICAL STIMULATION OF SPINAL CORD

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely - to neurology. A region above thoracic vertebrae T11-T12 of a patient lying on his/her side with his/her legs suspended in rocking frame is exposed to an electrical bipolar rectangular stimuli sequence in the form of square waves at frequency 5-40 Hz, length 0.5 ms and carrier frequency 10 kHz. That is combined with an exposure covering cervical C4-C5 and lumbar L1-L2 vertebrae. All the spinal regions are stimulated at the same time at a pulse phase shift in a pulse packet within 0.1-0.5 ms; the amplitude is specified within 40-200 mA so that the procedure induces no pain.;EFFECT: method enables accelerating rehabilitation process, increasing amplitude and improving motion coordination that is ensured by the synchronous stimulation of the various spinal regions in a combination with the natural physiological stimulation.;2 cl, 1 tbl, 4 dwg, 1 ex
