COMBINED THERAPY USING SONOPULSE III
The simultaneous therapeutic application of ultrasound and functional electrostimulation may be performed with
SONOPULSE
III
using an electro stimulator from the
NEURODYN
line of IBRAMED equipment.
In this technique, the applicator releases ultrasonic energy and becomes an active electrode of the electrostimulation.
Follow the instructions below to perform combined therapy.
Combined therapy may be performed by any electrostimulator of the
NEURODYN
line of IBRAMED equipment connected to
SONOPULSE III
by a special connection cable (black) inserted in the combined therapy slot in the frontal part of
SONOPULSE
III
. This cable presents an alligator pin adaptor which is connected to the black banana pin in the electrostimulation cable in the
NEURODYN
line. The dispersive banana pin (red) of electrostimulation is connected to a dispersive electrode which is applied
to the patient to close the electrical circuit. When the electric current output is generated by the stimulator, the current flows
through the aluminum face of the transducer by means of this connection (figure 9).
