An Overview of Electrical Nerve Stimulation via Transdermal Application

The risk of dying from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is significantly increased by hypertension. The primary issues affecting public health at the moment are hypertension and its consequences. Some persons with hypertension, even under intensive therapeutic supervision, do not achieve the specified blood pressure (BP) treatment targets. Patients with resistant hypertension (RH) may be defined as those who need to take three or more different kinds of antihypertensive medications in order to reach their blood pressure target. Utilizing the body's natural bioelectric system, bioelectric technology is a relatively new approach. In auxiliary evaluation, pain management, and organ function rehabilitation, it is commonly used. Renal sympathetic denervation, carotid baroreflex activation therapy, electroacupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine, and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation are the primary forms of bioelectrical technology, which has advanced quickly in recent years as an effective treatment for RH.
