Pulsed short waves are part of high frequency therapy; unlike continuous short waves, where the phenomenon of tissular endothermia occurs, they have therapeutic effects that seem to depend rather on the interaction of electromagnetic waves with biological tissue, as they act only through specific electromagnetic energy. The recommended work technique for the use of the Diapulse device is that regardless of the exposed somatic region, there will be an initial exposure of one of the following regions: prehepatic, epigastric or lumbar (for action on the adrenal glands). Considering the role and the effects of the hormones of the adrenocortical gland, particularly glucocorticoids, on the body, which influence the inflammatory response of the connective tissue, with a role in rheumatoid pathology, we monitored the changes in the function of this gland. The biochemical parameters cortisol and aldosterone were quantitatively assessed in patients with complex regional pain syndrome type I (algoneurodystrophy) treated with pulsed short waves, who were initially exposed to radiation of the lumbar region. In the same treatment session, all patients were exposed to radiation of the lumbar region, at a dose of 4/400 impulses/sec., for 10 minutes, followed by radiation of the affected region at a dose of 6/600 impulses/sec., for 10 minutes. There was one treatment session per day, for 14 days. It was demonstrated that radiation of the lumbar region at a dose of 4/400 impulses/sec. caused no changes in the hormonal function of the adrenal gland, i.e. no hypo- or hyperfunction; there was no overstrain or overstress after exposure to pulsed short waves, which is an important aspect, with applicability in clinical practice. Studies demonstrated both the local and the general, systemic influence of pulsed short waves, the induced changes being for the most part strictly dependent on the dose used.
