Electrode positioning and choice of treatment parameters should always be adapted
to the treatment guidelines.
For currents in which a chemical burn is possible (e.g. galvanic current, diadynamic
current, currents with galvanic share), the recommended maximum current density is
2 mA rms/cm² electrode surface.
If the current density exceeds 2 mA eff/cm², an increased attention from the user is
required.
Note that with a smaller electrode surface a higher current density is achieved by
using different electrodes.
Caution
!
The Tens treatment should not be used on the head or directly on the eye.
Caution
!
In simultaneous operation, the ultrasonic head may be used as the dynamic electrode
in connection with a stationary electrode, which is connected to the electrode cable.
The ultrasonic and electrode channels form an application part. Please note that
therapeutic currents flow in this mode via the ultrasound head.
