Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
The electricity in living tissue was widely studied around the 19th century. Such study was suspended for many years but has then been started again during recent decades. New research into bioelectricity is creating alternatives in the health field; one of them is an electrodermal response associated with the wound healing, cell stimulation and psychopathology diagnostic. This article presents some of the first responses and models concerning electrodermal activity. Theoretical, clinical and review papers were studied and classified to show the amplitude and variety of bioelectrical responses. Electrodermal activity is only one of many applications having an abundant amount of evidence regarding diagnosis and treatment starting from bioelectrical signals. Electrical tissue response requires more experimental, theoretical and clinical research in many fields involving an organism's behaviour to ascertain, propose and create new treatment alternatives for different pathologies.
