ABSTRACT:
A method for treating skin ulcers, infections and the like by eletrotherapy. Therapeutic low intensity direct current is applied to a patient by electrodes, at least one of which contains silver. The polarity of the direct current is reversed from time to time to prevent the accumulation of unwanted material upon the silver bearing electrode due to electrochemical action.
