Abstract :
A small current through low frequency is able to treat patients by attenuating or malfunctioning mechanism of microbes which flow through the blood. In addition, the performance delivery of oxygen and nutrients in blood are improved. With the advance, blood viscosity and hematocrit are coincidentally approached to normal level, adaptive flow-rate. This paper proposes the conceptual design of an electrotherapeutic device used for modality application" The design is based on a certain square wave varied from 4 to 5 Hz with a stimulating current and voltage adapted from 0.241mA to 1.027mA and from 15Vpp to 64Vpp, respectively. Applying the wave form to blood model in testing environment, the experimental results show that the viscosity is reduced to satisfy level.
