The effect of tetrapolar application of medium frequency currents interferential on the autonomic nervous system.

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of tetrapolar application of medium frequency currents (isoplanar vector field)  in the thoracic spine area on cardiac autonomic nervous system evaluated using the selected spectral and temporal indicators of  heart rate variability (HRV) in healthy probands.  The results of the study showed only a very small effect on the cardiac autonomic nervous system (ANS).
