stabilise the knee, reduce stress on the knee and relieve knee pain. Use Thigh Pads
on the thigh of your affected leg (knee) once a day for 20 minutes, 5 days per week.
Do not use Revitive more than 6 sessions of 30 minutes (or the equivalent) per day.
This may result in muscle fatigue. Use at an intensity that provides you with
strong
but comfortable muscle contractions.
There are three Knee Programs to choose from:
Vigorous
Knee Program
Provides a more intense
muscle strengthening
program for people
who require less rest
between their electrical
muscle stimulation.
The Vigorous Program
delivers 10 seconds of
stimulation, followed
by a 10-second rest
period which repeats
until the end of therapy.
Delivering 3 muscle
contractions per minute.
Standard
Knee Program
Provides our standard
muscle strengthening
program. The standard
therapy program
delivers 10 seconds of
stimulation, followed
by a 20-second rest
period which repeats
until the end of therapy.
Delivering 2 muscle
contractions per
minute.
Gentle
Knee Program
Provides a more relaxed
muscle strengthening
program, by offering
a more substantial
rest between muscle
stimulation. The therapy
session delivers 10
seconds of stimulation,
followed by a 50-second
rest period which repeats
until the end of therapy.
Delivering 1 muscle
contraction per minute.
Removing the electrode pads
a Check Revitive is switched off after the session, then
gently peel the electrode pads from the skin.
Do not pull the electrode pads off the skin using the
electrode cords as this may damage the cords.
b Replace the electrode pads onto their plastic liner
after use.
c Unplug the electrode cord from Revitive.
f
Refer to page 26 which explains how to control
the stimulation from the app.
The Body Pad Programs can be automatically
selected as part of your suggested Therapy Plan or
manually, by tapping the Program name at the top
of the Controller screen when no stimulation is
running.
Auto-pause will occur if a pad is disconnected from
the body or a cable is disconnected. Reconnecting
and tapping will re-start the stimulation.
