TRANSCUTANEOUS ELECTRICAL NERVE STIMULATOR IS ANY STIMULI (ELECTRICAL) THAT INDUCES THE THRESHOLD RESPONSE NECESSARY FOR NERVE 'firing' OR SENDING AN IMPULSE ALONG A NEUROLOGICAL PATHWAY ORIGINATING ON THE SURFACE OF THE SCAN AND TRAVELING THRU (the skin) hence the term trans or across (transcutaneous) the skin.

How might you Draw an analogy between the nerves in the human body and electrical wires?
Nerves in the human body can be likened to electrical wires in how they transmit signals. Just as electrical wires carry electrical impulses to power devices, nerves carry electrical impulses from the brain to various parts of the body to control muscle movement and convey sensory information. Both nerves and electrical wires rely on efficient transmission pathways to ensure proper communication within their respective systems.
How does the bionic eye work?
The device called the " Bionic eye" consists of glasses mounted with a camera.This camera is attached to a stimulator (an electronic chip) on the retina, optic nerve or in the portion of the brain which produces perceptions of vision.When light falls on the camera, it focus the light on to the stimulator.The stimulator converts light to electrical signals which then reach the appropriate section of the brain responsible for vision.However, this technique is best suited to patients whose optic nerves developed well in spite of losing their vision.
What body cells can pass electrical information?
Nerves
What is an electronic muscle stimulator used for?
An electronic muscle stimulator is used for exactly what it is named for. The pads send electrical pulses to force blood flow through the muscle. It also stimulates nerve reaction. Many physical therapists use these as an integral part of recovery.
What carry electrical in your body?
Your nerves do. Your brain sends electrical signals through your nerves to your muscles to make you move. Signals from the far ends travel through nerves back to your brain, so you can see, hear, smell, taste, and feel.
How big is the receiver-stimulator?
The receiver-stimulator is disk-shaped and is about the size of a quarter
What are the contraindications of microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator?
cancer, pregnancy, pacemaker, blood vessel conditions like phlebitis, nueropathy, open lesions, bone
What carries electrical signals trough our body?
Nerves do. Your brain sends electrical signals through your nerves to your muscles to make you move. Signals from the far ends travel through nerves back to your brain, so you can see, hear, smell, taste, and feel.
What part of your body lets our brain know activities inside and outside your body?
The nervous system is responsible for transmitting signals to the brain about activities inside and outside the body. This system includes the brain, spinal cord, and a network of nerves that communicate information through electrical and chemical signals.
