Operation
4.10.1 Setting parameters
Treatment should always start at a low energy level. This also applies to resuming
treatment after an interruption. The pulse energy should be increased gradually
during treatment. The low levels are used less for therapy and more for familiarising
the patient.
• Select a low energy level and frequency (see
C
hapter
).
NOTE
The selection of energy levels is based on the medical opinion of the doctor
administering treatment. The maximum energy level used during treatment
must not cause the patient undue pain under any circumstances.
