Drive Deluxe Dual Channel Horizontal Design TENS Unit

Features

• Drive Deluxe Dual Channel Horizontal Design TENS Unit includes:
  - Carrying case
  - 2 Lead wires with deluxe connector
  - 9 Volt battery
  - 1 Pack of 4 pre-gelled electrodes
  - Operating Manual 
• Dual isolated channels
• Adjustable 0-80 mA, 500-ohm load
• Pulse frequency adjustable from 2Hz to 150Hz
• Pulse width is adjustable from 60 to 250 microseconds
• Waveform is asymmetrical, bi-phase and square pulse
• Modulation selector offers wave delivery in normal, burst or modulation modes
• Plastic belt clip
• Modulation Mode: Pulse rate is automatically varied in a cyclic pattern over an interval of nominally 10 seconds.(in max 150Hz) Pulse rate decreases linearly over a period of 4 seconds from the control setting value to a value which is 40% less. The lower pulse rate will continue for 1second. Then increase linearly over a 4 seconds period to its original value. The original pulse rate will continue for 1 second. The cycle is then repeated

More Information

• Contradications:
  - TENS devices can affect the operation of demand type cardiac pacemakers. TENS is not recommended for patients with known heart disease without physical evaluation of risk. Do not use TENS on the carotid sinus(neck) region. Do no apply TENS for undiagnosed pain syndromes until etiology is established. Do not stimulate on the site that may cause current to flow trans cerebrally (through the head)
  - Possible allergic to gel, skin irritation and electrode burn are potential adverse reactions
  - Read operation manual before use of TENS
  - We emphasize that patient with an implanted electronic device (for example, a pacemaker) should not undergo TENStreatment without first consulting a doctor. The same applies to patients with any metallic implants
  - If TENS therapy becomes ineffective or unpleasant, stimulation should be discontinued until its use is reevaluated by the physician or therapist
  - Avoid adjusting controls while operating machinery or vehicles
  - Turn the T.E.N.S. off before applying or removing electrodes
  - AGF-3X T.E.N.S. devices have no AP/APG protection. Do not use it in the presence of explosive atmosphere and flammable mixture
• Precautions:
  Isolated cases of skin irritation may occur at the site of electrode placement following long-term application. Effectiveness is highly dependent upon patient selection by a person qualified in the management of pain patients
• Warning:
  - Caution should be used in applying TENS to patients suspected of having heart disease. Further clinical data is needed to show there are no adverse results
  - The safety of TENS devices for use during pregnancy or birth has not been established.Do not use TENS during pregnancy
  - TENS is not effective for pain of central origin. (This includes headache)
  - TENS devices should be used only under the continued supervision of a physician
  - TENS devices have no curative value
  - TENS is a symptomatic treatment and as such suppresses the sensation of pain which would otherwise serve as a protective mechanism
  - Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms) may not operate properly when TENS stimulation is in use
  - There should be a prominently placed statement warning that stimulus delivered by this device may be sufficient to cause electrocution. Electrical current of this magnitude must not flow through the thorax because it may cause a cardiac arrhythmia
  - Do not place electrodes on the front of the throat as spasm of the Laryngeal and Pharyngeal muscle may occur
  - Care should be taken so that when operating potentially dangerous machinery the stimulator controls are not changed abruptly
  - Electrodes should not be placed over the eyes, in the mouth, or internally
  - Keep this device out of the reach of children
  - Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician
