positioned to contact with the skin of the more patient or less next to the zone to be
treated, to close the circuit.
The generator of tide works within the waves radio frequency long that oscillate
between the 0,4 and the 0,5MHZ with a varying power thin to a maximum of 300W
In this way issue of external energy is not had, but there is only a development of
endogenous or inside energy to level of the biological tissue produced by the
movement of ions and electrolytes. This movement is induced from the strengths of
attraction and repulsion that produce him among the 2 plates of the condenser.
Techniques of application
The capacitive/resistive tecartherapy (which stands for Energy Transfer Capacitive
and Resistive) is a therapy that stimulates the body's natural repair processes,
shortening the time of motor recovery.
The diathermy, through the interaction electromagnetic energy / tissue, produces a
temperature increase that takes place within the tissues in a uniform and controlled
way. This electro-magnetic interaction induces an ion flow with a micro-hyperemia
that ultimately promotes the release of "endogenous substances" (mainly cortisol
and endorphins) that are used to reduce pain, edema and inflammation.
I-TECH.AR stimulates the increase of blood flow in a direct manner, thanks to the
increase of temperature, and indirectly through the oxygen demand from the treated
tissues; the increase of blood flow favors the increase of the normal immune system
activities and stimulates the tissue regeneration.
I-TECH.AR operates in two modes:
- in
capacitive
mode, it will cause an increase of electrical charge density in proximity
of the area below the movable electrode and especially at the level of the soft tissues
such as muscle
- in
resistive
mode, the concentration of electrical charges and thus the biological
effect occurs in tissues with the highest resistance that are between the movable
electrode and the return plate, namely bone, ligaments, etc..
How it works
Because the phenomenon of increased charge density occurs, it’s necessary that the
two capacitor plates are connected to an electric generator potential difference that
is responsible for supplying charges to the same armor.
This establishes a real current in accumulation phase goes from the generator to the
condenser. As the capacitor builds up charge, the flow is reduced to zero when the
capacitor is fully charged.
After this initial phase if the polarity of the generator is reversed, there will be a
current in the opposite direction that the load capacitor with opposite polarity to the
previous. If the generator reverses polarity periodically there will be a flow in both
directions, i.e. an alternating current.
The transfer by
capacitive contact
occurs through a capacitive electrode shielded with
ceramic insulating material (of different sizes depending on the treatment area), that
mobilize the charges in the subcutaneous tissue.
The
resistive transfer
occurs through an electrode resistive (not isolated) that
mobilizes the charges so that they are concentrated in the areas of greater depth and
resistivity (bony matrix and deep musculature).
Capacitive mode acts therefore specifically on the soft tissues (muscles, blood vessels
and lymphatics, adipose tissue), the resistive mode acts instead on tissues with
greater resistance (bony tissue, cartilage, tendons, serous fascia).
A neutral plate (return pole) is positioned in proximity of the structures treated to
close the circuit applied according to a geometric arrangement that allows the
location of the more point resistive or capacitive to the affected area (e.g., the
popliteal groove in treatment of the knee).
For a good transfer of the energy to the tissue on the part to be treated a salty gel of
coupling is used or however a transmission gel that prevents the creation of an air
gap between the electrode and the body surface and face adhere better irradiator
and epidermis.
