Epidermal and endosteal sources of endogenous electricity in injured canine limbs
Abstract
Endogenous electricity associated with musculoskeletal injuries was investigated in injured forelegs of anesthetized adult dogs to identify the endogenous sources and to understand their possible role in healing. Voltages and currents in the injury were measured in progressive stages ranging from a skin incision to an osteotomy of the radius. A circuit model was then developed for the injured limb, and the injury potentials and injury currents …
