| 摘要 |
This invention is an electrical stimulation apparatus (10) and method for applying an electrical stimulation to a lesion. The apparatus includes a housing (12) having a battery and an electrical circuit mounted inside the housing (12). A pair of electrodes (16, 17) are removably mounted to the housing (12) and extend therefrom so as to accommodate being touched to the skin on opposite sides of the lesion. A switch (20) on the housing allows the user to selectively supply electrical energy to the electrodes (16, 17). A first light (40) on the housing is illuminated when the switch (20) is depressed thereby providing a visual indication that electrical energy is being supplied to the electrodes. A second light (41) on the housing provides a visual indication of a low battery condition. A closure (14) is mountable to the housing and encloses the electrodes, switch, and light within the closure. The size and shape of the apparatus are designed for portability. |
