The duration of each galvanization is from eight to ten minutes, and should be repeated every third or sixth day.
If the subinvolution is complicated with retroflexion, then intra-uterine galvanizationafter the organ is replaced is the most effective treatment.
Old pelvic adhesions and exudations as a result of pelvic cellulitis or peritonitis are amenable to galvanizationafter hot douches, sitz baths, and other discussives have failed to excite absorption.
Even more ticklish than the galvanizationof the cerebral mass is galvanization of the sympathetic.
I can only briefly refer, here, to the novel mode of galvanization introduced by Dr.
Galvanization (twenty cells Daniell), from the anterior tibial region to the spine was found invariably to cut short the pain.
Galvanization from supra-orbital foramen to nape stopped the pain in five minutes.
I resumed galvanization from periphery to spine; after twelve more sittings the attacks had become rare and slight.
This is a mode of galvanization which has been highly praised, more especially by Remak, and after him by Benedikt, but it has yielded rather disappointing results in neuralgia in my hands.
Inverse galvanization was continued for ten days; but no recurrence of the pain took place.
The alternative method which Eulenburg suggests, but has not, so far, put in practice, is directgalvanization of the sympathetic and vagus in the neck.
Galvanization of the brain is a remedy chiefly employed in true migraine, and is certainly very effective in that disease.
I am not going to raise here the vexed question in physiological electricity as to the possibility of a galvanization the effects of which shall be accurately limited to the sympathetic.
On the other hand, he reports that intercostal neuralgia has never been materially benefited by galvanization in his hands.
The way in which galvanization of a nerve, violent injuries and excessive pain depress the temperature, independently of any action upon the circulation, is now evident.
Galvanization of a nerve affects very powerfully the circulation, and it has been believed that this derangement was the cause of the lessened chemical movements.
Between the inflammatory attacks the parts are to be rubbed with an ointment of iodine or mercury, together with galvanization of the involved part.
Galvanization or faradization of the affected parts may also be employed, and with, occasionally, beneficial effect.
Faradization and galvanization of pneumogastric and recurrent laryngeal nerves caused movements of left vocal cord, but not the right; there was no reflex motion in the larynx.
Galvanization of the bladder with an intravesical electrode is sometimes of service to strengthen its capacity for contraction.
He was ordered two weeks' rest in bed, with massage, cool sponging daily, and galvanization of the areas of neuralgia.
It appears that thus far the best results have been obtained on the one hand by galvanizationof the spine, on the other by general faradization.
Where many joints are involved, the advantages over local galvanization of the baths is sufficiently obvious.
Accordingly, I discontinued my previous practice of spinal galvanization in this disease, and had recourse to the baths in almost every case that applied to me for treatment.
At any rate, I have never obtained from galvanization of the nervous centres, which I have practiced in a great number of cases, the striking effects on the alimentary processes which are so uniform a result of the baths.
It would appear at a first glance as though local galvanization of affected joints should be more directly and powerfully instrumental than electric baths in promoting the absorption of morbid deposits.
