RPW 2 USER MANUAL
The Comfort Mode feature turns the ramping function on and off. This feature slowly increases the Bar and allows the patient to
get used to the pressure of the output instead of administering the full output all at once. This feature defaults to ‘ON’, it allows
the device to gradually increase the Bar or intensity to the desired treatment Bar setting. The device will increase to the desired
Bar setting starting at 1/10 of the desired Bar, slowly increasing in increments of 1/3 of the set amount of pulses until it reaches
full Bar strength.
By touching the screen this feature can be turned ‘OFF’.
Note: If the Comfort Mode has been turned ‘OFF’ before the treatment, it cannot be enabled in the middle of a treatment; while a treatment session
is in progress.
During the treatment, while the device is in the process of ramping up to the treatment Bar level, the device can be paused.
When resuming the treatment from being paused the treatment can progress in one of three ways:
1.
Continue to ramp to the full treatment Bar
2
. The treatment can resume at Bar level when paused during ramp up
3.
The treatment can be resumed and the clinician can turn the dial on the device so that the ramp is on a lower setting for the
remainder of the treatment.
The Bar adjustment is the most sensitive parameter to be set and is very important to set correctly.
A low level of Bar energy would not be efficient, as 50% of the energy is lost at the skin’s surface. While a high level of energy
could generate intense pain during the treatment causing the patient to not seek further therapies. The Intelect RPW 2 comfort
mode is designed to help the clinician determine what level of Bar energy and discomfort the patient can accept.
