Title: [The use of electrodynamic alternating potential in operative and conservative orthopedics (author's transl)]. Author: Täger KH. Journal: MMW Munch Med Wochenschr; 1975 May 09; 117(19):791-8. PubMed ID: 805945. Abstract: W. Kraus and F. Lechner's electromagnetic field coil was used in 107 patients for operative (82) and conservative (25) indications. The method was shown to be a valuable addition to the therapeutic possibilities so far available for bones and joints. The production of new bone is estimated, blood flow through the soft parts is promoted and affects the inhibition of inflammation. No additional demands are made on the surgical technique and side effects do not occur. The results of treatment are substantiated by X-ray pictures and the indications listed individually.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
