Intelect® Advanced Therapy System

PATIENT PREPARATION

35

Examine the skin for any wounds and clean the skin.
Apply the electrodes to the treatment area.
Ensure the electrodes are applied securely to the skin.
Ensure good contact between each electrode and the skin.
Check the electrode contact regularly during the treatment.
Examine the skin again after the treatment.
Choose electrodes that fit the anatomy.
View the Electrode Placement recommendations in the 
Treatment Review screen for the particular modality being used 
for treatment as a reference point only prior to administering 
treatment.
Refer to the respective electrode type instructions on pages 37 
through 38.
Follow electrode manufacturer instructions.








ELECTROTHERAPY PATIENT PREPARATION

Electrode Placement

Keep electrodes separated during treatment. Electrodes in contact with 
each other could result in improper stimulation or skin burns.

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.

Powered muscle stimulators should be used only with the leads and 
electrodes recommended for use by the manufacturer.
