Revitive Essential CIRCULATION BOOSTER Bedienungsanleitung Seite 4

Introduction to Revitive
Operator profile
The intended operator profile is based on users in the home environment who may have a sedentary lifestyle or
experience long periods of sitting or standing and related issues such as pain, leg stiffness and swelling in the legs,
ankles and feet.
Revitive is intended for use by the end user in a non-clinical setting and without the supervision or intervention of a
clinician during use.
A typical user may be of any adult age range and is not specific to any demographic of gender, ethnicity or educational
background.
How Revitive works
Revitive delivers Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to your feet via a pair of cushioned foot-pads, while you are seated.
The electrical stimulation causes muscles in your calf and foot to contract, which helps to increase circulation in your
legs.
Revitive has been developed so that it is comfortable for you to use.
Revitive can also deliver electrical stimulation to the knees, shoulders, back or arms, through the use of the Electrode
Body Pads provided.
Indications for use
Revitive is intended to, when using the foot-pads:
• Improve circulation to reduce or prevent blood-pooling (stasis) - caused by poor circulation due to a sedentary
lifestyle or long periods of sitting or standing
• Help maintain leg vein health – by increasing circulation, delivering more oxygenated-blood in the legs
The above Indications for Use are certified under the Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC.
In addition, if you have a sedentary lifestyle or spend long periods inactive, Revitive may help to:
• Strengthen leg muscles
• Reduce foot & leg discomfort
• Actively increase circulation.

Important safeguards
Read all instructions before use.
Save these instructions.
Revitive should not be used by some people.
Do not use if (contraindications):
• You are fitted with an electronic implanted device such as a heart pacemaker or Automatic Implantable Cardioverter
Defibrillator (AICD)
• You are pregnant
• You are being treated for, or have the symptoms of, an existing Deep Vein Thrombosis ("DVT")
Long periods of inactivity can put you at greater risk of developing Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). DVT is a blood
clot and usually occurs in a deep leg vein. If part of the DVT breaks off it may lead to potentially life-threatening
complications such as pulmonary embolism.
If you have been inactive for prolonged periods and suspect you may have a DVT, consult your doctor immediately.
To prevent dislodging the clot do not use Revitive.
In some cases of DVT there may be no symptoms. However it is important to be aware of the symptoms that may
include:
• Pain, swelling and tenderness in one of your legs (usually your calf)
• A heavy ache in the affected area
• Warm skin in the area of the clot
• Redness of your skin, particularly at the back of your leg, below the knee
Consult your doctor as soon as possible if you show any signs of the above symptoms.
