SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
6
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.”
