Electrode and Lead Wire Setup (continued)
Step 3
Remove each electrode from the plastic backing and place on the
treatment site according to the type of modality selected.
Electrode Arrangement
When using the
IFC
modality,
RED
and
BLACK
lead wires must be placed
in a crisscrossed pattern as shown in the diagram below.
TENS or NMES
:
Using both channels and crisscrossing the electrodes is
optional.

The safety of NMES devices for use during pregnancy or birth has not been
established.
·
This device is not effective for pain of central origin. (This includes headache.)
·
This device should only be used under the continued supervision of a physician.
·
This device does not have curative value.
·
This device offers symptomatic treatment such as suppressing the sensation of
pain which would otherwise serve as a protective mechanism.
·
The user must keep this device out of the reach of children.
·
Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms) may not
operate properly when this device is in use.
·
The long
-
term effects of chronic electrical stimulation are unknown.
·
Stimulation should not be applied over the carotid sinus nerves, particularly in
patients with known sensitivity to the carotid sinus reflex.
