Lectures on nervous diseases from the standpoint of cerebral and spinal localization, and the later methods employed in the diagnosis and treatment of these affections . ^, you attach to the other end of each rheophore anelectrode for use upon the body of the patient. The electrodes may be. Fig. 1S4 —The Static Induced Current. of metal without any covering, or ordinary sponge-covered electrodesmay be employed (care being taken that the insulating handles aresomewhat longer than usual). Before the machine is set in motion, r7s poles should be approximatedclosely. This step is important, because the separation of the poles inten-sifies the current, as long as a spark will pass between them. There aretwo factors, therefore, in determining the strength of the static-inducedcurrent:— (1) The size of the jars. (2) The extent of separation of the poles. Dr. Morton has devised an ingenious electrode which allows of anapplication of this form of current to a patient without disturbing thepoles of the machine; but it is not an essential part of a static outfit,because an interruption of the current can be accomplished without it. 43 674 LECTURES ON NERVOUS DISEASES.
