Diadynamic Currents
Diadynamic currents were introduced by Bernard (1) and won an
important position in the history of physiotherapy. They are currently
unfairly deemed as outdated compared to TENS or Interferential currents.
Diadynamic Currents are used mainly to reduce pain and improve
blood circulation.
Bernard uses the term Diadynamic currents, which refer to a monophase
(MF - Monophas fixe) or double phase (DF - Diphas fixe) rectified
alternating current. The frequency was derived directly from the power
source, resulting in sinusoidal pulses with a duration of 10 ms. This time,
10-ms phase will mainly depolarize thick fibers. Stimulation of the thin
fibers can only be obtained with greater current amplitude.
(1) Bernard, Pierre D.
La diadynamique thrapie,
Paris, Editions Physio ', dated 1962.
ATTENTION:
Diadynamic Currents are monophase currents that produce electrolysis
subproducts. These subproducts can result in burning beneath the
electrodes. Always use a correctly wet sponge / electrode combinations to
absorb these products during the treatment.
The available variations are as follows:
MF (Monophas fixe)
(032012)
NEUROMED 4084 - CDB

It is a single sinusoidal phase rectified current with a frequency of 50 Hz.
MF is a vibration waveform that easily induces the contractions.
NEUROMED 4084 - CDB

Is identical to SP, except that the amplitude of the current in the MF
phase is 12.5% smaller than during the DF phase.
Usually, a lower frequency is experienced to be more aggressive than a
higher frequency. IDSP prevents this difference in the sensation.
DF (Diphas Fixe)
It is a dual sinusoidal phase rectified current with a frequency of 100 Hz.
DF is usually experienced with a fast vibration. It is a pleasant waveform
that is often used as an introduction to SP or LP.
LP (Long Periods)
It is a slow alternance between six seconds of MF and six seconds of DF.
In the DF phase, the intervals between the MF pulses are filled with
additional pulses gradually with the increase and decrease in amplitude.
LP is suaver than SP.
SP (Short Periods)
Monophase ( Faradic )
Mo n op h as e / F aradic currents are often used for muscular stimulation
applications that are based on previous diagnosis. The diagnostic
objective is the obtainment of information on the sensitivity of the
neuromuscular device for electrical stimulation. This g i v es a n
i nd ic at i on of t he le v e l of m us c u lar t is s u e enervation. With this
technique, the ratio between amplitude and the duration of the current
phase of a rectangular and triangular pulse is plotted in a power / duration
curve. The power / duration curve is recorded by observing the amplitude
of the current required in phase of various values of duration (varying
from 0.01 to 1000ms) that produce contraction of a muscle or muscular
group that is just perceptible (that is only visible or palpable). In case of
reduced sensitivity or absence in electrical stimulation, the power /
duration curve gives an indication of the current waveform, phase
duration and amplitude of the electrical stimulation current to be used in
any therapy that can be applied.
Square Monophase Current.
It is a fast alternance between a second MF course and a second of the

current DF. CP has as strong re-absorption effect.

effect is the absence of pain that can arise from just the first treatment
and that can last for several hours.
Galvanic current
Tp = 2 mS / Tr = 5 mS
Direct Galvanic Current
(2) Trabert, H.
Ultra-Reizstrom, neues ein therapeutisches Phnomen,
Elektromedizin 2, 1957 (7).
Direct galvanic current, applied constantly without rest interval.
ATTENTION:
Monophase currents are currents that produce electrolysis subproducts.
These subproducts can result in burning beneath the electrodes. Always
use a correctly wet sponge / electrode combinations to absorb these
products during the treatment.
Interrupted Galvanic Current
Interrupted galvanic current, and modulation of direct galvanic current, at
the frequency of 8 KHz, with working cycle of 90%.
Microcurrents
Microcurrent is a rectangular monophase waveform selected manually or
with alternate polarity.
Trabert Ultra-Exciting.
The 2-5 or "Ultra-exciting current was introduced by Trbert.(2) . The 2-5
faradic current is a rectangular pulsated current with a phase duration of 2
ms and a phase interval of 5 ms. These configurations are the standard
configurations for the faradic current rectangular waveform and result in a
pulse frequency of approximately 143 Hz. Trabert did not provide any
explanation for the choice of these parameters. However, many workers
have adopted the treatment and it is still applied with success. A notable

Many therapists prefer Microcurrent therapy because of the low current

amplitudes used. Alternate polarity can be used for the average of the DC
component, reducing electrolysis formation.

Electrode Application
Attention:
The connection of accessories not specified by the manufacturer can
affect the patient and correct operation of the equipment, which is not
allowed.
Before the Treatment:
NEUROMED 4084 - CDB

According to Brazilian Standard NBR IEC 60601-2-10, the maximum
2
current density allowed is 2 mA RMS per cm .
The NEUROMED 4084 output is limited to 50 mA RMS, with charge of
500 Ohms.
To check if the current density did not exceed the maximum allowed,
divide the output current in mA by the effective area of the electrode in
2
cm
Electrode connection and disconnection reactions
Check if the patient fits any other contraindication.

Heat sensitivity test of the area to be treated.
Clean the area to be treated with aqueous solution with neutral
soap.
Conductive Rubber (Silicone) Electrode

The use of conductive rubber (silicone) electrode is recommended, in
combination with wet sponge. The use of gel or duly wet sponges
assures low impedance between the skin and the NEUROMED 4084
stimulator. The electrodes and sponges can easily be cleaned after
treatment.
To fix the electrodes with gel, or wet sponges, with the patient's skin,
sticky tape of medical use or rubber band can be used.
Electrolytic Effect
Electrolysis occurs under the electrodes, when the types of currents with
DC component are applied.
NEUROMED 4084 has DC component.
In the electrolytic effect, due to the high concentration of electrolytes
caused by the migration of ions occurring under the electrodes, we
recommend that the sponges be duly wet in order to have minimal
electrolytic effect.
NEUROMED has Constant Current in the current output, which can cause
unpleasant reactions if the electrodes are not correctly coupled to the
skin, or if there is loss of contact with the skin.
Ensure that the output is marking 0 (zero) mA when placing or removing
the electrodes.
Preventive
cleaning
maintenance,
preservation
We recommend that the NEUROMED be inspected and

calibrated once a year
Always ensure that the device is disconnected from the power

supply before cleaning. Avoid wetting the electric contacts of the wires
and connectors
Use a cloth wet with water and soap to clean the cabinet of your
device
Regularly control the power supply and power cable, assuring

that there are no defects.
On disconnecting the power cable from the device, always

remove it from the plug, thus preventing the wire from breaking
Always remove the electrodes from the patient with care so as

not to damage them.

NOTE 1: in the range of 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the highest frequency of the range is
applied.
NOTE 2: this procedure cannot be applied in all situations. The electromagnetic
propagation is affected by absorption and reflection of structures, objects and people.
a. The intensity of the fields generated by fixed transmitters, such as cell sites for
telephones (mobile/wireless) and land mobile radios, amateur radios, AM, FM and
TV radio broadcasting stations cannot be theoretically prognosed with precision. To
evaluate the electromagnetic environment due to the fixed RF transmitters, a study of
the electromagnetic field in the site would be considered. If the field intensity
measured in the site where NEUROMED is used exceeds the level of compliance
above, the NEUROMED would be observed to verify if it is operating normally. If
abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be required,, such as
reorientation or reallocation of the NEUROMED;
b. Above the frequency scale of 150 kHz to 80 MHz, the field intensity should be less
than 3 V/m.
Portable and mobile RF communication

equipment would not be used closer to any
part of the NEUROMED, including
cables, other than the separation distance

Separation distances recommended between portable and mobile RF communication

equipment and NEUROMED
NEUROMED is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which RF
disorders are controlled. The buyer or operator of the NEUROMED may help prevent
electromagnetic interference by keeping a minimum distance between portable and mobile
RF communication equipment (transmitters) and NEUROMED as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communication equipment.
