once or twice a day. The treatment duration is up to 20 minutes and is
determined by the attending physician depending on the patient
’s con-
dition.
The course length is up to 20 days. Repeated courses are to be car-
ried out in 1.5-2 months.
Home treatment of cerebrovascular accident (stroke) after-
effects, transient ischemic attacks, chronic ischemia of the brain
(cerebral arteriosclerosis) in the sub-acute period and the period
of residual effects.
If a patient has previously been under DIAMAG treatment in a
specialized care unit, then (s)he or their relatives need to confirm the
treatment methods with the doctor who had previously appointed the
treatment with DIAMAG to ensure the most effective use. Repeated
treatment with DIAMAG of stroke after-effects, transient ischemic attack
and chronic brain ischemia is to be performed 1.5 months after the pre-
vious course of magnetic therapy.
If the device has not been applied in a healthcare facility in the
acute phase of stroke, it is necessary to consult a physiotherapist or
a local physician.
After the consultation, the patient can conduct the procedure ei-
ther by him(her)self, or with the relatives
’ assistance, making sure to
check the blood pressure before the procedure and 20-30 minutes
after it. This is done to evaluate the patien
t’s level of magneto-
sensitivity and the overall treatment effect.
Note: In rare cases (0.5%), increase or decrease of blood pressure
has been observed after treatment with DIAMAG. If after the proce-
dure the blood pressure has changed for 10-25 mmHg or less, then
during the following procedure the exposure time is to be shortened
by 1/3. If the blood pressure after the procedure has dropped or in-
creased by over 25 mmHg, then, before performing the following
procedure, make sure to consult a physiotherapist or attending phy-
sician to adjust the treatment method.
If for any reason receiving medical advice is impossible, please
follow the treatment method described below (provided there are no
contraindications as set out above in this Manual).
