EBME 309 Bioelectric Quiz 3 March 22, 2016 (10 points) Page 1 of 1 You are a recently hired biomedical engineer for an exciting start-up company. One of the founders of the company (Dr. Smith) placed 2 electrodes (Xand Y) in the brains of people to reduce quiz stress and it has worked quite we He connected the electrodes to his stimulator such that current flones in through electrode X and out Your imaging consultant tells you that there are different nerve fibers (A endB ar the electrode locations in the brain. The imaging consultant also tells you that electrodes X and Yare equidistant from both acons (A and B). Axons A and B have very different effects, but no one knows what they are. Dr. Smith asks you to explain to him what is goingon, but doesn't give you any time cr money to run simalations and needs an answer today What do you tell Dr. Smith? Explain your answerExplanation / Answer
Ans- these electrodes works on the principle that when an external frequency of light, vibration or sound is applied on brain then it try to adjust it's internal frequency according to the external frequency applied.
This applied frequency so act like a stimulus which result in release of neurotransmitters which releases the hormones which are required to get relief from the anxiety or stress.
The voltage applied by these electrodes works in the same manner and make the brain to resolute it's frequency according to voltage by electrodes and help in stress relieving.
