DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUE FOR INFLAMMATORY PROCESS ACCOMPANYING INGROWN NAIL

摘要

FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: technique involves impedancemetry accompanying surgical intervention. A one-side ingrown nail requires measuring an impedance of the involved and healthy nail folds. The measurements are taken at a frequency 2 of kHz and voltage 1 V. A coefficient K is calculated as a relation of the involved to healthy impedances. The value K of 1.5 or less testifies to an inflammatory reaction.EFFECT: technique simplifies diagnostics and reduces its time.2 ex, 1 dwg, 1 tbl
