yellow LED indicator is provided on the front panel to show that the unit is
delivering energy for any non-zero value of stimulation output (1-100 mA).
Patients with an implanted electronic device (for example a cardiac
pacemaker) should not be subjected to stimulation unless specialist medical
opinion has first been obtained
.
Stimulation should not be applied transthoracically in that the introduction of
electrical current into the heart may cause cardiac arrhythmias.
Simultaneous connection of a patient to high frequency surgical equipment may
result in burns at the site of the stimulator electrodes and possible damage to the
stimulator.
Operations within close proximity (within 1 m) of shortwave or microwave therapy
equipment may produce instability in the stimulation output.
The safety of this device for use during pregnancy or birth has not been
established.
This device should only be used under the continued supervision of a trained
physician.
This device does not have a curative value.
The user must keep this device out of the reach of children.
Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms) may not
operate properly when this device is in use.
The long-term effects of chronic electrical stimulation are unknown.
Stimulation should not be applied over swollen, infected or inflamed areas of skin,
eruptions, e.g. phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, etc.
Stimulation should not be applied over, or in proximity to, cancerous lesions.
Simultaneous connection of a patient to high frequency surgical equipment may
result in burns at the stimulator electrodes and possible damage to the stimulator.
Operations within close proximity (with one meter) of shortwave or microwave
therapy equipment may produce instability in the stimulation output.
STRANGULATION HAZARD. The lead wire included with this product presents a
potential strangulation hazard. Keep this cord out of the reach of children.
