GENERAL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
•
U S A Federal Law restricts these devices to sale by, or on the order of, a physician or licensed practitioner. This
device should be used only under the continued supervision of a physician or licensed practitioner.
• Be sure to read all instructions for operation before treating patient
• Make certain the unit is electrically grounded by connecting only to a grounded electrical service receptacle
conforming to the applicable national and local electrical codes
• Care must be taken when operating this equipment around other equipment. Potential electromagnetic or other
interference could occur to this or to the other equipment. Try to minimize this interference by not using other
equipment in conjunction with it.
• The safety of TENS waveforms for use during pregnancy or birth has not been established
• TENS is not effective for pain of central origin (This includes headache )
• TENS waveforms have no curative value
• Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms) may not operate properly when electrical
stimulation is in use.
• TENS is a symptomatic treatment, and as such, suppresses the sensation of pain which would otherwise serve as a
protective mechanism
• Do not drop the applicator or unit on hard surfaces or submerge in water. These actions will damage the applicator
and unit. Damage resulting from these conditions is not covered under the warranty.
• This device should be kept out of the reach of children
• Use of other accessories other than those specified in this User Manual may increase electrical emissions and
decrease electrical immunity of the device
• Contaminated sponges, electrodes, lead wires, and gel can lead to infection
• Use of electrode with degraded hydrogel can result in burn to the skin
• DO NOT operate this unit in an environment where other devices are being used that intentionally radiate
electromagnetic energy in an unshielded manner.
• Use of electrode on multiple patients can lead to infection
• Clean applicators after each use, otherwise it can lead to cross contamination and infection
• Do not treat through clothing
• Stop treatment immediately if patient experiences discomfort or pain
• Powered muscle stimulators should be used only with the leads and electrodes recommended for use by the
manufacturer
• Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous exposure to ultrasonic energy
• Before administering any treatment to a patient you should become acquainted with the operating procedures for
each mode of treatment available, as well as the indications, contraindications, warnings, and precautions. Consult
other resources for additional information regarding the application of each mode of treatment
• Disconnect the system from the power source before attempting any maintenance, installation, removal, or
replacement procedures to prevent electrical shock and possible damage to system.
• Keep electrodes separated during treatment. Electrodes in contact with each other could result in improper
stimulation or skin burns.
• Long term effects of chronic electrical stimulation are unknown
• Stimulation should not be applied over the anterior neck or mouth Severe spasm of the laryngeal and pharyngeal
muscles may occur and the contractions may be strong enough to close the airway or cause difficulty in breathing
• 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 swollen, infected, and inflamed areas or skin eruptions, e g , phlebitis,
thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, etc
• Stimulation should not be applied over, or in proximity to, cancerous lesions
• Electrotherapy output current density is related to electrode size. Improper application may result in patient injury. If
any question arises as to the proper electrode size, consult a licensed practitioner prior to therapy session.
• The device's optional modules and associated accessories are designed for use only with this device
• Remove the Ultrasound by pulling the cable connector only DO NOT remove by pulling the cable
• Output current density is related to electrode size. Improper application may result in patient injury If any question
arises as to the proper electrode size, consult a licensed practitioner prior to therapy session.
• Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC Portable and mobile RF communication
equipment can be affected by other medical electrical devices. If you believe interference is occurring, please consult
the ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) section to assist in removing the interference.
• Common RF emitting devices (e g , RFID) and electromagnetic security systems (e g , metal detectors) may interfere
with the operation of the device. The device has been tested in the presence of these types of devices and while no
adverse event occurred, the device should not be operated within the vicinity or environment as another RF emitting
device.
• The ultrasound applicator included in this set can expose you to chemicals including lead/lead components and
Bisphenol A (BPA) which are known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm. For more information go to www.p65Warnings.ca.gov.
• The electro stimulation lead wires included in this set can expose you to chemicals including lead/lead components
which are known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more
information go to www.p65Warnings.ca.gov.
