Abstract
In a series of 13 cats the effect of electrical stimulation of peripheral nerve on the mechanism of fast axoplasmic transport was studied. Electrical stimulation was used for varying time periods at parameters reported in the range of those used to produce electroanalgesia in man. At these parameters, electrical stimulation produced no effect on this important aspect of nerve function; the safety of these devices in pain states is therefore supported.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
