4 Therapy
4.1 General guidelines for therapy
Always observe the instructions given to the electrode positioning (see Chapter 5.1) .
The maximum output power per channel is 5000 mW. When this value is reached,
the intensity can not be further increased. Depending on the selected current type
limits for the current value can be considered (see Appendix for details).
Please note the maximum current density for the electrode which are defined in Table
1, Table 2 and Table 3.
Depending on the particular application plate electrodes or the suction electrodes can
be used. When plate electrodes are used, they are connected to the patient cable.
Channel I is indicated by the red color.
Channel II is indicated by a blue color.
According to the used channel the red or blue channel must be selected on the unit to
change the current for this channel.
If suction electrodes are used, a
Neoserv must be present and connected. Instead of
the patient cable, the cable of the Neoserv is connected to the socket of the
Duodynator . The suction function is operated using the suction flyout. In the suction
flyout the suction can be switched on and off, the suction strength can be chosen
within certain limits and the suction massage frequency can be set.
4.2 Selection of therapies
4.2.1 Selection of therapy by Other therapies
In this selection all low, all medium-and all self-defined currents are filed. The
selection is made from a list which is filtered. Thus, only low-frequency monophasic,
only low-frequency biphasic, only medium frequency or user-defined currents can be
displayed from the appropriate list and then selected.
If Interference is used, the selection is only between standard and Own therapies.
4.2.2 Selection of therapy by indications
In Duodynator an indication menu is integrated. This provides a list of programs
with pictures indication to the electrode positioning specify the parameters (current
form, possibly modulating frequency and duration). This treatment parameters are
indicative and recommendations are the responsibility of the treating physician.
