After storing the chronaxie value, the slope value of the impulse have to be set: thus
the impulse is transformed from rectangular to triangular-trapezoidal. Use the P+
and P- buttons to modify the value of the slope and confirm with OK. Continue by
increasing the value intensity until the stimulation is reached. The value of slope and,
therefore, the value of intensity can be modified again in the setting screen.
NOTE: The programs created in the diagnostics menu are saved in the
PROGRAMMING area where they can be executed.
Results
Chronaxie inferior to 1 millisecond: the muscle is normally innervated.
Chronaxie included between 1 and 10 milliseconds: this moderate increase of the
chronaxy reveals a weak denervation rate that does not necessarily demand a
preventive treatment, considering the limited number of denervated fibers.
Chronaxie included between 10 and 20 milliseconds: an evident increase in the
chronaxie and the presence of spontaneous activity reveal that a certain number
of motor unities is inhibited while others are working. The muscle is partially
denervated.
The treatment consists of stimulating the denervated fibers in a selective way,
possibly eliminating the participation of healthy fibers. This is possible thanks to the
use of a progressive slope of trapezoidal or triangular currents.
Advanced chronaxie, higher than 20 milliseconds: characterized by the absence of
voluntary activity. A chronaxie from 20 to 40 milliseconds reveals a complete
denervation that is a total interruption of the nervous conduction. The treatment is
performed with rectangular currents of long duration (100 or 300ms).
