Electrotherapy Simplified by Basanta Kumar Nanda


The aim of this book is to focus on the electrotherapy simplified. Electrotherapy is one of the important aspects among the various approaches of patient management available to a physiotherapist. Electrotherapy Simplified has tried to give comprehensive knowledge on electrotherapy and actinotherapy, starting from basic electricity and magnetism to the theoretical and clinical aspects of the different modalities applied by physiotherapists. 

This book consists of 19 chapters, which include an introduction, inflammation, repair, and role of physical agents, electrical fundamentals, magnetic energy, valves, transistors, and rectifiers, electrical measurement systems and distribution of electricity, electrophysiology of nerve transmission, and muscle contraction, low-frequency currents, electrodiagnosis, medium frequency currents, low-intensity laser therapy, ultraviolet radiation, and traction. 

About 250 objective question answers have been included which will enable the student to get a gist on the subject and prepare for the university degree/diploma examinations as well as PG entrance tests. This new edition will help students in a better way.

What is Anatomical pulley? Example of Anatomical pulley

Understanding the Importance of Anatomical Pulleys in Physiotherapy As a physiotherapy student, it is essential to have a good understanding of the human body's anatomy and how it works. One of the essential structures in the body that plays a significant role in movement and biomechanics is the anatomical pulley. In this article, we will explore what an anatomical pulley is, its types, and its importance in physiotherapy. What is an Anatomical Pulley? A pulley is a simple mechanical machine that consists of a wheel that turns readily on the axle, usually grooved for a rope or a wire cable. In the human body, the pulley is replaced by a bone, cartilage, or ligament, and the cord is replaced by a muscle tendon. The tendon is lubricated by synovial fluid, and the surface of the tendon is covered by a thin visceral synovial membrane. The tendon is lubricated so that it may easily slide over the pulley. Classification of Anatomical Pulleys There are mainly four classes of pulleys ...

JOINTS OF HUMAN BODY

A junction between 2 or more bones/cartilages is called a JOINT. Joint permits mobility and stability. A human skeletal has approximately more than 200 bones that are connected by joints. Also, joints help to form cavities like cranial, thoracic, abdominal & pelvic cavities. There are more joints in the child than in an adult because with age some bones fuse. CLASSIFICATION OF JOINTS: 1] STRUCTURAL CLASSIFICATION 1.Fibrous Joints -The bones are joined by fibrous tissue and these are mostly immovable or slightly movable joints. 3 Subtypes:- a) Sutures -They are present only in the “skull”. In this type, bones are connected by connective tissue called a sutural ligament. Fusion of bony components occurs later in life leading to the formation of bony union. In infants, there is an anatomical feature in the skull comprising soft membranous gaps called “FONTANELLE”. Eg: Suture between frontal & parietal bone, temporoparietal suture b) Syndesmosis In this type, bones are connected di...
