Pulsed electromagnetic energy (PEME)
Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF)
The production of HFC for PSWD is exactly same as for CSWD.
57
Pulsed SWDBy incorporating إدماج a timing circuit

58
Pulsed SWD-Is short wave at the frequency of 27.12
MHz, which is pulsed at a rate, selected by the therapist.
-The pulse frequency range is from 15 to 200 Hz.
-The maximum intensity is 1000 watts.-The pulse duration is constant at 0.4 ms
in square pulse.-The advantage of pulsed S.W.D. is that a

65
PSWD - Advantages
1-Effective in treatment of post traumatic & Infective conditions
2-Often used in conditions where continuous SWD is contraindicated.
66
Technique of Application
1- Shortwave machine with chosen electrodes and its test tube أنبوب to ensure the machine is إختبارworking.
2- Test tubes for skin test.
3- Cotton towels or felt pads for spacing.
4- Ensure that there are no contraindications for SW application.
5- Put the patient in a comfortable position and well support, allow the area to be treated to be completely uncovered.
67
Technique of Application
6- Inspect the area to be treated.
7- Ensure there is no metal (jewellery or hairpin) within 300mm of treatment area.
8- Explain the procedure and feeling to the patient.
9- If using flexible pad electrodes, wrap them in several layers of towelling or place them between felt pads to ensure the required amount of spacing.
68
Technique of Application10- If using space electrodes adjust the distance according to the concentration needed.
11-Instruct the patient not to move during treatment and warn her/him from uncomfortable heat feeling.
12- If the machine has a patient safety switch instruct the patient to switch the machine off if he feel more heat.
69
Technique of Application 13- Check the machine controls at the zero
position, then switch the power on.
14- Switch the intensity on and wait 2-3 minutes on the minimum intensity and ask the patient about her/his feeling, then adjust the timer to the required treatment time.
15- After treatment time has finished, turn the intensity switch to zero and remove the electrodes.
16-Inspect the area after treatment and ask the patient to stay few minutes for rest and to regain to normal temperature.
70
Technique of Application
1-Application using two flexible pads or space plates:
A- The electrodes should be slightly larger than the area treated and spaced from the skin by approximately 25 mm.
B- To concentrate heat on one aspect of the part the electrode should be unequal in size (smaller one placed over the area where concentration of heat is required).
71
Technique of ApplicationC- Coplanar application to treat structures
on one aspect of the body.
The distance between adjacent ends (x) must be greater than the sum of skin electrode distance (A+B) otherwise the line of force will pass directly between electrodes rather than tissues.
72
Technique of Application
D- Application using a coil electrode:1- The coil wound evenly firmly heat
superficial tissue.2- Pancake application heat superficial
tissues.
73
Technique of Application
E- Application using diplode:Adjust wings of diplode parallel to the
skin of the treated area, electromagnetic field will produce.
74
Technique of ApplicationF- Applications to two limbs: Two flexible pads, two space plates or
flexible pad with a space plate are used. It is essential to put a cotton towel between the two limbs to absorb any perspiration.
75
Technique of Application
G- Cross-fire application:For the treatment of sinuses, space plates
positioned diagonally, after half of treatment time the positions are alternate. This ensures that all aspects of the sinus membrane are heated. Care must be taken to avoid direct placement over the eye.
76
Treatment TimeMost Typically SWD Treatments Last For
20-30 Minutes
Remember As Skin Temperature Rises Resistance Falls
