The production of nerve and muscle impulses by faradic and interrupted direct current, and the "Strength-duration curves" plotted for normal, denervated, and partially denervated muscles, are described. The advantages and disadvantages of such electrical stimulation in the testing of recent paralysis, the treatment of recent paralysis, and following tendon transfer surgery, in leprosy patients, are discussed. In the light of these, electrical stimulation is concluded to have only a minor role in the Physiotherapy of leprosy.
描述了用感应电和间断直流电产生神经和肌肉冲动，以及为正常、失神经支配和部分失神经支配的肌肉绘制的“强度-时间曲线”。讨论了这种电刺激在麻风病患者近期瘫痪的测试、近期瘫痪的治疗以及肌腱转移手术后的优缺点。鉴于这些情况，得出结论：电刺激在麻风病物理治疗中仅起次要作用。
