• Stimulation should not be applied over swollen, infected, or inflamed areas or skin eruptions, e.g.,
phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, etc.
• Stimulation should not be applied transthoracically in that the introduction of electrical current into
the heart may cause cardiac arrhythmia.
• Stimulation should not be applied over the carotid sinus nerve particularly in patients with a known
sensitivity to the carotid sinus reflex.
• Stimulation should not be applied over, or in proximity to, cancerous lesions.
• If the person is pregnant or menstruating do not place electrodes directly on the uterus area or
connect pairs of electrodes on either side of the abdomen to avoid any risk for the mother and/or the
baby.
• Keep electrodes separated during treatment. Electrodes in contact with each other could result in
improper stimulation or skin burns.
- Extreme caution should be taken when in use around small children and babies! Sufficient distance
to the device and its accessories is mandatory for their safety!
- Never leave the device unattended when it is switched on! Switch the device off and disconnect
the electrodes from the modules!
- After use, store the device in a safe place to avoid other people not informed to use the device!
- This device is not a toy but a medical device that misunderstanding use can cause damages!
Shock hazard — Strictly observe the following warnings. failure to do so could endanger the lives of the
patient, the user and other persons involved.
- Before use allow the Revolution Wireless to reach room temperature. If the unit has been
transported at temperatures below 0 °C (32°f), leave it to reach at room temperature for about 2
hours, until any condensation has disappeared.
- Electrosurgical equipment or defibrillators. Disconnect the electrodes from the device before
using electrosurgical equipment, or a defibrillator, to avoid cutaneous burns from the electrodes
and destroying the device.
- Electronic surveillance equipment. Do not apply stimulation near electronic surveillance
equipment (e.g. cardiac monitors, ECG alarms), as there is a risk they may not work properly whilst
the electrical stimulation device is being used.
- Electromagnetic radiation. Do not use the stimulator in areas in which unprotected devices are
used to emit electromagnetic radiation. Portablecommunications equipment can interfere with the
device.
