AMPLITUDE MODULATED
FREQUENCY
The frequency with which the amplitude varies is refer to
as amplitude modulated frequency or treatment
frequency. The AMF corresponds to frequencies which
are used in low frequencies electrical treatment.
Value of AMF
AM= Δf1 - f2
Depth of Modulation
The modulation depth is expressed as a percentage and
can lie between o and 100%.Large modulation depth is
recommended for the therapeutic purposes. In IFT
generally four pole method and two pole method is used
ADVANTAGES
The interferential current do not produce any sensory nerve irritation,
irrespective of amplitude.
The current can localized more effectively in specific area. Extensive area
can also be covered
Hemorrhagic condition
Arterial disease.
Deep vein thrombosis.
Infective conditions.
Nervous people
Cognitive deficit
Pace maker implantation
Febrile conditions
Large open wounds
Unreliable patients
