VAS

Description

TM
time the score is recorded. The last score will be displayed in the VAS access button;
red denoting stimulation off (without therapy) and blue denoting stimulation on (with
therapy). A comparative report can be created if VAS scores are recorded with both
stimulation on and stimulation off.
