Abstract: A device for diagnosing a wound in a patient, the device comprising: at least two electrodes configured to be placed on the skin of the patient, wherein the at least two electrodes are placed in the vicinity of the wound; and at least one signal processor operatively coupled with the at least two electrodes, wherein the at least one signal processor is configured to: i) detect and record an endogenous alternating electrical signal in an area of the wound, ii) transform said endogenous alternating electrical signal into a voltage versus frequency spectrum using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm, and iii) diagnose the wound as a chronic wound if the voltage for a frequency between 65-200 Hz of the frequency spectrum is below 10?7.3±10% volts and as an acute wound if the voltage for a frequency between 65-200 Hz of the frequency spectrum is above 10?7.3±10% volts.

Abstract: An electrical stimulator system that includes a component configured to deliver an electrical current to a wound, the electrical current being a stochastic alternating current (AC) signal characterized by a frequency spectrum within the range of 0.5-2000 Hz. The system optionally includes electrodes through which the electrical current is delivered. The electrodes are optionally configured to be affixed on two opposing sides of the wound.

Abstract: Described herein are electrical markers, specifically alternate current (AC) signals whose appearance in patients with wounds, specifically chronic wounds, correlates to the prognosis of the wounds. Related methods that can be used for diagnosis and treatment of wounds are disclosed. Also described herein are methods that can be used to identify electrical signals of wounds.

Abstract: A method for diagnosing non-visible (occult) maladies in a human patient, the method comprising: (a) deploying at least two electrodes spaced apart on the skin of the patient; (b) detecting and recording a bioelectrical signal in and around said electrodes, the bioelectrical signal being a stochastic signal; (c) transforming the stochastic signal into a voltage versus frequency spectra using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm; (d) comparing a graph of a resultant FFT level of the patient to at least one graph of a baseline FFT level; and (e) determining a presents of a non-visible (occult) malady based on said comparison. Methods for monitoring a treatment regimen for non-visible (occult) maladies and for modulating the amplitude of endogenous bioelectrical stochastic signals in a human patient are also disclosed.
