Definition
Multi-RF
Multi-Radiofrequency
ON
State of the Generator when RF energy is applied to the probes and
dispersive return electrode if applicable.
PDT A
The Peripheral Disc Temperature as relating to TDP A (TRANSDISCAL*
Probe A)
PDT B
The Peripheral Disc Temperature as relating to TDP B (TRANSDISCAL*
Probe B)
PMG
Pain Management Generator
POST
The state of the Generator when Power-On-Self- Tests are
performed.
PULSE DUR
A setting that applies to VOLTAGE STIMULATION, CURRENT
STIMULATION, AUTO PULSED LESION, and MANUAL PULSED LESION
modes. In the STIMULATION modes, it describes the length of time of
one stimulus pulse. In PULSED LESION modes (MANUAL AND AUTO) it
describes the length of time of the RF pulse.
PULSE RATE
A setting that applies to AUTO PULSED and MANUAL PULSED
modes. It describes the number of RF bursts of duration PULSE DUR and
is measured in Hz.
Pump
Refers to Pain Management Peristaltic Pump Unit (TDA-PPU-1)
RAMP RATE – COOLED RF
MODE
A setting that is adjustable in ADVANCED SETTINGS mode, and
applies to COOLED RF mode. It is the rate at which the Generator
heats to the SET TEMP.
RAMP RATE – IDL MODE
Setting that is adjustable in ADVANCED SETTINGS mode, and applies
to IDL mode. It is the rate at which the Generator heats from the INITIAL
TEMP to the SET TEMP.
RAMP RATE – TRANSDISCAL
MODE
A setting that is adjustable in ADVANCED SETTINGS mode, and
applies to TRANSDISCAL mode. It is the rate at which the Generator
heats to the SET TEMP.
RAMP TIME – AUTO TEMP
LESION AND AUTO PULSED
LESION MODES
A setting that is adjustable in ADVANCED SETTINGS mode – LESION
SETTINGS, and applies to the AUTO TEMP LESION and AUTO PULSED
LESION modes. It is the rate at which the Generator heats to the SET
TEMP.
RAMP TIME – RFA MODE
A setting that is adjustable in ADVANCED SETTINGS mode – RFA. It is
the rate at which the Generator heats to the SET TEMP.
READY
State of the Generator where settings can be adjusted and other modes of
operation can be chosen prior to RF application.
