The concept of using the electro stimulation device is quite simple. It uses an electrical current to facilitate transfer of energy in the form of electricity to heal an injury or wound.
An electrical source in the device regulates and controls the transfer of electric current through an electrode pad. Two electrode pads are needed to complete the electrical circuit in the device. An electrolyte is used to moisten the surface of the wound or skin to insulate the contact with the electrical energy. When the area to be treated is in contact with the electrode and electrolyte, it is said to be a "Capacitatively Coupled Electrical Simulation".
In order to understand this device better, it is essential to differentiate the waveforms that are used in this device from others. The HVPC (High Voltage Pulse Current) is the waveform used in this device. It is has a monophasic twin peak, although the widths may vary by a difference of 20-200 microseconds. This waveform is safe because it is a short pulse and does not induce unwanted changes in the pH level and temperature of the wounded area. The HVPC allows selection of pulse rate and polarity that are required for healing the wound. This makes this simulation device safe to use.
