How to use
Contraindications
Do not use I-TECH UE (in any mode) if the source of the pain is unknown or not
diagnosed. Use the device ONLY after having a diagnosis.
It is absolutely forbidden to use I-TECH UE for ULTRASOUND THERAPY in those
areas affected by thrombophlebitis not to make the thrombus move. Avoid
treating patients with deep vein thrombosis, embolism or arteriosclerosis or
that have previously been treated with X rays or other radiations. This device
should not be used near testicles or over neoplastic lesions, on the carcinogenic
areas and over a healing fracture. Do not use ultrasounds on the stellate
ganglion, on the spinal column after a laminectomy, on the area surrounding
the main nerves or the cranium, over cardiac area and in anesthetized areas or
in patients with bleeding problems. This device should not be used on ischemic
tissues in individuals with vascular disease where the blood supply would be
unable to follow the increase in metabolic demand and tissue necrosis might
result. This device should not be used over the thoracic area if the patient is
using a cardiac pacemaker in order to avoid interferences between the
ultrasound device and the pacemaker.
Avoid using ultrasounds near bone growth centers in kids/growing children.
Ultrasound therapy must not be performed near the uterus on pregnant
women or those who suspect they might be pregnant. Therefore, the
ultrasound beam should not be used in this area without ensuring that the
patient is not pregnant.
I-TECH UE for ELECTROTHERAPY should not be used over, or in proximity to,
cancerous lesions. Do not apply stimulation over open wounds or inflamed
areas or skin eruptions (e.g., phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins). Is
forbidden to use the device on patient who have a cardiac pacemaker, suffers
from epilepsy, heart-related pathologies, anxiety or serious illnesses,
abdominal or inguinal hernias, on pregnant women (except in case of medical
prescription). Use caution if stimulation is applied over the menstruating or
pregnant uterus and over areas of skin that lack normal sensation. Electrical
stimulation is ineffective for treatment pain of central nervous system.
Side effects
If the handpiece moves too slowly the patient may experience sharp and/or
deep peripheral pain. If it moves too quickly, or if the handpiece is not held
correctly, the therapeutic effects of the ultrasound might be reduced.
