1 Product Description
The 6-series is based on a modular system. This means that a number of modules are
integrated within a single structure.
The base module consists of a user interface and an Endomed electro therapy module, which
has two independent current channels.
The 6-series offers protocol driven operation, providing either factory or user defined sequences
of treatment steps. Protocols can run on linked or independent channels.
With independent channels, two different protocols can be run simultaneously. All settings can
easily be adjusted via the user interface, which is shown on the graphical colour display.
The therapy modules, - Endomed electro therapy, Sonopuls ultrasound and Vacotron vacuum -
are described below.
WARNING (USA only): The 600-series is a prescription device that should only be used under
the supervision or by the order of a physician or other licensed healthcare provider.
1.1 Endomed electrotherapy module
The 6-series is equipped with two completely identical electrotherapy channels.
A comprehensive set of current waveforms is provided for both pain management and muscle
stimulation applications. One electro-module with 2 channel electrotherapy is mounted in the
Endomed 682, two electro-modules are mounted in t
he Endomed 684. In de Endomed 684 it’s
possible to work completely independent with 2+2 channels electrotherapy or 4 completely
independent channels 1, 2, 3 and 4.
1.2 Sonopuls ultrasound module
The ultrasound module has one multi-frequency ultrasound channel. The multi-frequency
ultrasound treatment heads for the 6-series provide both 1 and 3 MHz operation. The ultrasound
treatment heads can be used with both, large and small treatment surfaces and are suitable for
subsequent treatments.
Contact control suspends the application of ultrasonic energy when acoustical contact with the
treatment area becomes insufficient.
The user can connect two ultrasound treatment heads. These can be activated from the
ultrasound menu.
The simultaneous application of ultrasound and electrotherapy (combination therapy) is also
possible. The remaining electrotherapy channel can then be used independently.
1.2.1 StatUS module
StatUS stands for Stat ionary U ltra S ound: the application of ultrasound without moving the
ultrasound treatment head (= stationary). In the normal course of events, ultrasound energy is
administered by moving (‘making circles’) the ultrasound treatment head. This moving of the
ultrasound treatment head (also called the dynamic or semi-stationary method ) is essential
because a few unfavourable phenomena occur both within an ultra-sound bundle as well as in
the tissue, which may lead to tissue, damage (so-
called ‘hot spots’). StatUS -therapy, on the
other hand, makes use of two special forms of modulation that ensure that the peaks in intensity
in the ultra-sound bundle are strongly reduced, diminishing the risk of cavitation and preventing
the occurrence of
‘hotspots’.
These modulation forms are:
1. Duty Cycle Modulation
2. Amplitude Modulation
1.3 Vacotron vacuum module
The continuous and pulsed vacuum module allows vacuum electrodes to be positioned quickly
and easily. Furthermore, it is extremely simple to switch between the treatment with vacuum
electrodes and treatment with flexible rubber electrodes. This makes the vacuum module an
ideal aid for electrode placement.
