Manual Qiu V 1.7 engl.
Introduction
Dear customer,
Thank you for your decision to use the Qiu. With the Qiu you have purchased a future-
oriented medical device, developed by medical doctors over years of research. This man-
ual contains some important information. Please read it carefully before you begin using
the device and keep it safe for later reference.
Purpose
The Qiu is a medical biofeedback device to enhance neurocardial and autonomic regulation
and to improve your ability to relax. The device can be used as a supportive tool for many
disorders, whenever improvement of autonomic regulation can advance the healing pro-
cess. The Qiu can also be used by people with occupational stress as a stress-relieving
tool, and by athletes for effective mental training. No matter what your purpose for using
the Qiu, please use it according to the instructions of your therapist.
Contraindications
The Qiu is not suitable for patients suffering from severe heart rhythm disorders, because
in such patients the heart rate does not sufficiently reflect the activity of the autonomic
nervous system. In such cases, effective biofeedback training is not possible. However,
occasional ectopic beats do not represent a contraindication. If you are in doubt, please
ask your therapist.
