Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth exploration of medical electricity, a field that emerged from the experiments of scientists like Galvani and Volta. The author describes the discovery of galvanism and the laws that govern it before explaining how to generate a galvanic current using a simple voltaic or galvanic couple. The book explains the electrical and chemical principles behind the various types of galvanic batteries, from the Voltaic pile to the Law cell. The importance of understanding the internal and external resistances in determining the current strength is emphasized. The author argues that it is essential to be able to measure the electrical current used in medical applications, and describes the use of instruments like the galvanometer and milliampere meter. The book concludes with a discussion of the various electrodes and current controllers used in galvanotherapy. It highlights the need for careful handling of electrical equipment and provides guidelines for safe and effective use of medical electricity.
