During galvanic electrical stimulation, the patient must?

  1. Be left unattended

  2. Be attended at all times

  3. Undergo treatment once a day

  4. Be evaluated post-treatment only

The correct answer is: Be attended at all times

During galvanic electrical stimulation, the patient must be attended at all times. This is because the treatment involves passing electrical currents through the body, which can cause discomfort or even injury if not properly monitored. Therefore, it is important for a healthcare professional to be present to adjust the treatment if necessary and ensure the safety and comfort of the patient. Option A is incorrect because leaving the patient unattended could result in potential harm. Option C is incorrect because the frequency of treatment will depend on the specific needs and condition of the patient. Option D is incorrect because it is important for the patient to be evaluated before, during, and after treatment to assess the effectiveness and make any necessary adjustments.
