2.It may be helpful to improve repeated application by spreading a few drops
of cold water over the adhesive and turn the surface up to air dry. Over
Saturation with water will reduce the adhesive properties.
Important
1.Do not apply to broken skin.
2.The electrodes should be discarded when they are no longer adhering.
3.The electrodes are intended for single patient use only.
4.If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult your clinician.
5.Read the instruction for use of self-adhesive electrodes before application.
Chapter 17 : ADJUSTING THE CONTROLS
1.Slide Cover:
A slide-on panel cover covers the controls for Pulse
Width, Pulse Rate, Mode Selector and Modulation
Selector. Your medical professional may wish to set
these controls for you and request that you leave the
cover in place.
2.Display Led
Each of the leds illuminates whenever the electronics
of the device create a current impulse. Due to the ca-
pacity of the human eye, the illumination of the lamp
can only be recognized up to a frequency of approximately 30 Hz. At higher f
requencies, the lamp will appear to be constantly illuminated.
2.Excess hair may be clipped with scissors; do not shave stimulation area.
3.Wipe the area with the skin preparation your clinician has recommended.
Let this dry. Apply electrodes as directed.
4.Many skin problems arise from the “pulling stress” from adhesive patches
that are excessively stretched across the skin during application. To pre-
vent this, apply electrodes from centre outward; avoid stretching over the
skin.
5.To minimize “pulling stress”, tape extra lengths of lead wires to the skin in a
loop to prevent tugging on electrodes.
6.When removing electrodes, always remove by pulling in the direction of hair
growth.
7. It may be helpful to rub skin lotion on electrode placement area when not
wearing electrodes.
8. Never apply electrodes over irritated or broken skin.
Chapter 16: APPLICATION OF RE-USABLE SELF ADHESIVE
ELECTRODES
Application
1.Clean and dry the skin at the prescribed area thoroughly with soap and water
prior to application of electrodes.
2.Insert the lead wire into the pin connector on the pre-wired electrodes.
3.Remove the electrodes from the protective liner and apply the electrodes firmly
to the treatment site.
Removal
1.Lift at the edge of electrodes and peel; do not pull on the lead wires because it
may damage the electrodes.
2.Place the electrodes on the liner and remove the lead wire by twisting and pull-
ing at the same time.
Care and Storage
1.Between uses, store the electrodes in the resealed bag in a cool dry place.
