Infrared and Microwave Effects on Skin Heating and Temperature Sensation

E. HENDLER, J. D. HARDY · 1960

Researchers exposed the forehead area of seven subjects to controlled heating while measuring skin temperature radiometrically. Temperature sensation reports correlated best with the rate of change of skin temperature. Warmth threshold occurred at a skin temperature rise rate of 0.001°C/second and cool threshold at a fall rate of 0.005° °C/second. Microwave irradiation at about 17 mW/cm² produced a linear skin temperature increase of 0.037°C/second for the first 30 seconds. Warmth sensation persisted after microwave exposure ended, which the authors attributed to slowly dissipated heat retained in the tissues.

Treatment Of Decubitus Ulcers

Samuel S. Lombardo · 1959

A 45-year-old paraplegic man had decubitus ulcers measuring 3 inches at the scapula and 7 inches at the sacrum that did not heal with conventional treatment. Diapulse modality was introduced and led to skin growth, granulation, healing, and inward progression of skin margins. The sacral ulcer decreased in size and became potentially amenable to surgical closure.

A Transistorized Bio-Tachometer

Harve M. Hanish · 1959

The bio-tachometer automatically measures time relationships of quasi-periodic biological signals by converting intervals into amplitude variations. The device uses a two-transistor ramp generator in a Miller integrator configuration triggered by biological signals. Testing on a resting gopher snake showed cardiac rate changes of approximately 20 beats per minute over the respiratory cycle. Testing on a stimulated rattlesnake showed consistent heart rate increases of 15 to 30 beats per minute.
