"I know I’ve found a new key to my post-ride recovery. After each ride, I take a recovery drink with me into the shower, clean off and then put the ice wraps on while I cook and eat."-- Phil Gaimon, 24, rides for Kenda Pro Cycling
Electrode Therapy - Intelect NMES 77715 by Chattanooga
Description
Intelect NMES 77715
The Neuromuscular Stimulator transmits electrical pulses through the skin surface to stimulate nerves and muscles. The electrical impulses cause the muscles to involuntarily contract. This type of stimulation can be used to prevent disuse atrophy, increase range of motion, and improve as well as maintain muscle tone without actual physical activity. It may also be used to relax muscle spasms and increase blood circulation.

FEATURES
Standard Dual Independent Channels Adjustable Pulse Amplitude, Pulse Frequency and Contraction/Relaxation Time parameters
Technical Specifications” Channel: Dual channels, isolated between channels Pulse Amplitude: 0-80 mA = 0-40 volts, adjustable (t 500 ohm load) Pulse Frequency (Hz): 5,30, 100 Pulse Width (µs): 250, fixed Contraction (On) Time (sec): 1-30, adjustable Relaxation (Off) Time (sec): 1-45 adjustable Waveform: Asymmetric biphasic square pulse. Timer Control (mins): No Stimulation Mode: One Power Supply: 9V DC square shape battery Size (D x W x H): 1.0” x 2.5” x 3.6” (26 mm x 62 mm x 91 mm) Weight (including battery): 4.4 oz (126 g) Safety Standard: EN 60601-1, EN 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-10 Operation Ambient Temperature Range: 50-95°F (10-35°C) Operation Ambient Humidity Range: 20- 90% RH Storage & Transportation Temperature Range: 32-158°F (0-70°C) Storage & Transportation Humidity Range: 20-90% RH
*All values have + 10% tolerance.
Warnings:
The long-term effects of chronic electrical stimulation are unknown. Stimulation should not be applied over the carotid sinus nerves. Particularly in patients with no sensitivity to the carotid sinus reflex.
Stimulation should not be applied over the 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 arrhythmias.
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 over, or in proximity to cancerous lesions.
Keep electrodes separate during treatment. Electrodes in contact with each other could result in improper stimulation or skin burns.
Precautions:
• Safety of powered muscle stimulators for use during pregnancy has not been established.
• Caution should be used for patients with suspected or diagnosed heart problems.
• Caution should be used for patients with suspected or diagnosed epilepsy.
• Caution should be used in the presence of the following:
• When there is a tendency to hemorrhage following acute trauma or fracture.
• Following recent surgical procedures when muscle contraction may disrupt the healing process.
• Over the menstruating or pregnant uterus. • Over areas of the skin which lack normal sensation
Some patients may experience skin irritation or hypersensitivity due to the electrical stimulation or electrical conductive medium. The irritation can usually be reduced by using an alternate conductive medium, or alternate electrode placement. Electrode placement and stimulation setting should be based on the guidance of the prescribing practitioner.
Stimulators should be kept out of reach of children.
Stimulators should be used only with the leads and electrodes recommended for the use by the manufacturer.
Machinery Operation: Patient should never operate potentially dangerous machinery such as power saws, automobiles, etc. during stimulation.
Adverse reactions:
• Possible skin irritation or electrode burn under the electrodes may occur • Possible allergic skin reaction to tape or gel may occur. • If the stimulation levels are uncomfortable or become uncomfortable, reduce the stimulation amplitude to a comfortable setting.
