Pain Management With PEMF Therapy

 

Pain treatment is a critical socio-economic and health problem. Acute, recurrent, and chronic pain are all common across all ages, cultures, and sexes in North America and cost adults between $10,000 and $15,000 annually. The cost of pain does not include the approximately 30,000 deaths in North America every year from aspirin-induced gastric lesion 17% of Americans over 15 years old suffer from chronic pain that disrupts their daily lives. According to studies, at least one in four Americans suffer from pain at any time. The medical community is heavily Services Anesthesia dependent upon this large number of people suffering from pain to provide pharmacological treatment. In order to decrease drug dependence, side effects, and invasive procedures, many physicians now refer chronic pain patients to "Complementary & Alternative Medicine". It is important to choose the most cost-effective, least toxic, easiest, and least painful approach.



It is difficult to know how pain can be relieved. This depends on where it comes from and whether it is chronic or acute. Complex pain mechanisms have both peripheral and central nervous systems aspects. The pain process of each patient should be addressed individually. Psychological factors can have a significant impact on how and when pain is experienced. Multiple concurrent approaches are required for effective pain management, especially chronic pain. Rarely can a single method solve the problem.

A new, fundamentally different approach to the problem has been explored over the last few years. Magnetic fields (MF) can be produced from both static (permanent), and pulsed (most often, pulsed) magnetic field (PEMFs). It has been possible to calculate fields of different strengths and frequencies. There is no "golden standard" yet. There is no "gold standard" for MF fields. The selections will be influenced by experience, confidence and convenience, as well as cost. There is no major advantage to any MF application. This is due to the inability to determine the root cause of pain. Treatment can be adjusted based on response. MF therapies have been proven safe after thousands of patient-years of experience. Precautions should be taken regarding implanted electric devices, pregnancy, and seizures in patients who are seizure-prone.

Many ways magnetic fields can affect pain perception are available. These effects can be both indirect and direct. The direct effects of magnetic fields include neuron firing and calcium ion movement, nerve regeneration, nitric oxide levels, dopamine levels and nerve stimulation. The indirect benefits of magnetic fields to physiologic function include circulation, muscle, edema and tissue oxygen. They also promote healing, prostaglandins and cell metabolism.

To quantify baseline and future outcomes, most pain studies use subjective measures. Subjective perception of pain using a VAS and pain drawings is 95% sensitive, 88% specific for current neck, shoulder and thoracic pain.

A typical anesthetic procedure uses one or more of the following drugs: a dissociative medicine, which blocks the signals from the nervous system from reaching your brain and causes memory  Office based anesthesia   impairment; a sedative which induces sleeplike or paralysis depending on the dosage; an analgesic also known as a painkiller.   To counter side effects of anesthesia, other drugs can also be used.   Analgesics like lidocaine can cause blood vessels to enlarge and increase bleeding.
