Lickint. The dangers of physiotherapy in practice (Münch, med. Wschr. 18,1936)
The most important contraindication for diathermy is sensitivity disorders of all kinds, especially a violation of the temperature feeling. It is also necessary to bear in mind the strength of the current and the duration of an individual session, which usually should not exceed ½ hour. After 10-15 sessions, it is advisable to take a break. Irradiation with ultraviolet rays often activates the tuberculous process and causes tetanic seizures. The duration of the irradiation at the beginning is 4 minutes; then the duration of the sessions is gradually increased by 1 min. and comes up to 15 minutes. (on the front and back of the body). Individual skin sensitivity should also be taken into account and the eyes should be protected at all times.
