Nerve stimulators


The following are true of nerve stimulators

(a) the applied electrical potential can be as high as 150 V
(b) the apparatus uses a square-wave electrical signal
(c) the pulse current should be 0.5–5.0mA when skin electrodes are used
(d) when the resistance increases the current must decrease, at a constant voltage
(e) stimulation at a constant current is preferable to stimulation at constant voltage
