Which of the following methods is used to apply e-stim directly to a wound to facillitate tissue healing?

Possible adverse effects of electrical stimulation for tissue healing include all of the following EXCEPT:

What type of ulcer has been found to respond best to treatment with electrical stimulation?

Which configuration of electrodes is most appropriate for wound healing?

This is the use of e-stim to control pain and includes conventional, low-rate, and burst modes. 

Low-rate TENS should be applied for 1-2 hours for it to be effective.
