Study Notes
Muscle and Nerve Related Conditions
- Drop wrist affects the extensor muscles of the wrist
- Drop foot requires electrode placement on the anterior and lateral aspect of the leg for faradic stimulation
- Sciatica is caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve
Electrode Placement for TENS Treatment
- For lower back pain, 4-6 paraspinal electrodes are used for TENS treatment
- For frozen shoulder, the electrode placement for interferential treatment is on the anterior and posterior surfaces of the shoulder joint
- For tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis), the affected area is the lateral epicondyle of the humerus
- For Golfer's elbow, the recommended electrode placement is on the medial aspect of the elbow
TENS Treatment for Specific Conditions
- Carpal tunnel syndrome requires the use of TENS with acute or chronic parameters and electrode placement on the anterior and posterior surfaces of the wrist joint
- For knee Osteo-arthritis, electrodes should be placed on the medial and lateral aspects of the knee joint
- For treating stress incontinence using Interferential current with faradic parameters, electrodes should be placed on the perineal area
- For treating edema of the hands, Interferential current with edema parameters and electrode placement on the hands is used
Radial and Posterior Interosseus Nerve Treatment
- For Radial nerve and Posterior interosseus using TENS, the recommended electrode placement is on the lateral aspect of the forearm and dorsum of the hand
Wrist Flexors Origin Treatment
- For treating infection in wrist flexors origin using TENS, electrodes should be placed on the anterior and medial aspect of the wrist
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Carpal tunnel syndrome involves compression of either the medial or ulnar nerve passing through the carpal tunnel
