Protection against noise
The noise level during administration of pulses is within the safe area. Nevertheless,
we recommend wearing suitable ear protection during treatment in order to minimise
exposure to noise.
1.1.2
Safety during treatment of the patient
General note:
Organs with gas inclusions, in particular parts of the lung, are NOT allowed to be
exposed to pulses.
As it passes through tissue, the pulse energy is slightly reduced; this reduction is
significantly weakened by the bone structure.
Pulses can give rise to undesirable heart reactions. The patient must be continuously
observed during the treatment.
Only perform treatments approved by STORZ MEDICAL AG!
The user is responsible for correctly positioning the handpieces and correctly selecting
the treatment zone.
No more than 6,000 pulses are allowed to be administered without interruption.
Treatment with the suction cup must be limited to 30 minutes.
