title: [Pulsed magnetic fields--their possibilities in pediatric neurology].
abstract: The author reviews information on the use of a pulsatile magnetic field with defined parameters in some child diseases of the CNS according to his experience assembled during the past five years. PMP was applied in 17 cases with spinal amyotrophy type M. Werdnig-Hoffman and in 16 cases with DMO. In both diseases treatment was previously only symptomatic. PMP frequencies of alpha EEG waves were used during application on the area of the head and a different frequency for whole body treatment focused on muscular dystonia. The author draws attention to the specificity of biotropic parameters of the applied magnetic field.
