Users of the en
Puls
shockwave treatment device must be trained in
how to use the system properly and have the appropriate skills.
Any treatment instructions regarding treatment location, duration and
strength require medical knowledge and should only be given by
authorised doctors, therapists and health paraprofessionals. It is
imperative that these instructions are followed.
Treatment must always be carried out under medical supervision.
The en
Puls
handpiece is not designed for permanent use. After a
treatment with max. 6000 shocks, a break of 15min. becomes
necessary.
Caution:
Patients who are concurrently receiving treatment involving a
reduction and/or modification of blood clotting or prolongation of the
blood clotting time (e.g. with acetylsalicylic acid) should consult their
therapist about possibly stopping this treatment as these patients
may be more prone to greater haemorrhaging and bruising when
radial shockwaves are applied.
Shockwaves are strongly scattered in air pockets and create
reflections that may have negative effects.
You must therefore never perform any direct treatments over the
lungs (intercostal spaces) or the gastrointestinal area.
It must not be used in wet areas. If it is used in wet areas, significant
damage may result, and patients and users may be endangered.
The instruments must only be operated with the mains cable provided.
Protect the mains cable from any mechanical stress.
