4. TENS devices should be used only under the continued supervision of a
physician.
5. TENS devices have no curative value.
6. TENS is a symptomatic treatment and as such suppresses the sensation
of pain which would otherwise serve as a protective mechanism.
7. Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms)
may not operate properly when TENS stimulation is in use.
8. 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 throax because it may
cause a cardiac arrhythmia.
9. Do not place electrodes on the front of the throat as spasm of the Laryngeal
and Pharyngeal muscle may occur.
10.Care should be taken so that when operating potentially dangerous ma
chinery the stimulator controls are not changed abruptly.
11. Electrodes should not be placed over the eyes, in the mouth, or internally.
12. Keep this device out of the reach of children.
13. Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a
physician
Chapter 4 : GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AGF-3X TENS is a battery operated pulse generator that sends electrical
impulses electrodes to the body and reach the nerves causing pain. The
device is provided with two controllable output channels, each independent of
each other. An electrode pair can be connected to each output channel.
The electronics of the AGF-3X TENS create electrical impulses whose Intensity,
duration, number per second and modulation may be altered with the controls
or switches. Dial controls are very easy to use and the panel cover connected
with device prevents accidental changes in the setting.
