What is the rise time of an electrical pulse and how does it affect peripheral nerve stimulation?
What will be an ideal response?
The rise time or speed of rise is the time required for the electrical pulse to reach its peak amplitude. To stimulate the nerve, the rise time must be quick enough to trigger an action potential. If the rise time is too slow, more intensity may be required to create an action potential.
