ULNAR SİNİR YARALANMALARINDA STİMÜLASYON: OLGU SUNUMU

Çocuklarda ön kol kırıkları radius ve/veya ulna şaftındaki herhangi bir kırığı içerir ve bu yaralanmaya bağlı sinir hasarı meydana gelebilir. Bu olgu sunumu, ön kol kırığına bağlı gelişen ulnar sinir yaralanması olan çocuk hastada uygulanan monofazik kare dalga akım formunun, sinir iyileşmesi üzerine etkisini göstermek amacıyla yapıldı.

Stimulation in Ulnar Nerve Injuries: Stimulation in Ulnar Nerve Injuries: A Case Report

Forearm fractures in children include any fracture of the radius and/or ulna shaft, and nerve damage may occur due to this injury. This case report was made to show the effect of monophasic square wave current form applied to a pediatric patient with ulnar nerve injury due to forearm fracture on nerve healing.
