Abstract

A medical device treats diseases of the hand, wrist, and arm, including osteoarthritis and osteoarthrosis of the joints of the human hand. The medical device includes a multi-layer glove system, an arm wrap, a signal generator, lead wires, and a garment. The multi-layer glove system serves as the treatment electrode and the arm • wrap serves as the return electrode. The multi-layer glove has a protective outer layer, which protects an underlying electrically conductive layer and prevents accidental electrical contact between the conductive layer and areas of a patient's skin. The signal generator produces a specific, spike shaped electrical signal, together with the multi-layer glove system, at the treatment site. The device can reduce pain and increase joint function of the treated joints.
