Intelect® Advanced sEMG and sEMG + Stim Module
5
•
Stimulus delivered by the TENS waveforms of this
device, in certain configurations, will deliver a charge of
25 microcoulombs (µC) or greater per pulse and may be
sufficient to cause electrocution. Electrical current of this
magnitude must not flow through the thorax because it
may cause a cardiac arrhythmia.
•
Patients with an implanted neurostimulation device
must not be treated with or be in close proximity to any
shortwave diathermy, microwave diathermy, therapeutic
ultrasound diathermy or laser diathermy anywhere on
their body. Energy from diathermy (shortwave, microwave,
ultrasound and laser) can be transferred through the
implanted neurostimulation system, can cause tissue
damage and can result in severe injury or death. Injury,
damage or death can occur during diathermy therapy even
if the implanted neurostimulation system is turned “off.”
•
Handle, clean, and dispose of components and accessories
that have come in contact with bodily fluids according
to National, Local and Facility rules, regulations and
procedures.
