What is an isoelectric impulse?

[lighty]

I just read a book about various forms of electrotherapy and I came upon a passage with states that "sometimes a high voltage isoelectric impulse is used in order to stiumlate dammaged tissue recovery".

So, what is the isoelectric impulse? How could one define it in this case?

Something is wrong with this expression: isoelectric pulse???
You can have isoelectric (or base) line as you have it between cycles in ECG, but pulse???

What perplexes me most is the following quote:

"... and they introduced the new aparatus that generates isoelectric impulses with the amplitude of 200V. Those impulses are also called W-impulses...".

would u mean impulse like function in signal processing? it not cleared from ur questions,plz explain clearly.
