Purpose Of Use; Using The Device Safely - schwa-medico PierenStim Parese Gebrauchsanweisung

Purpose of use

The PierenStim Parese serves for the stimulation current therapy of atonic paresis
on persons under the instruction of a qualified therapist. Electrical impulses are
delivered via the skin (transcutaneous) by means of electrodes. This causes muscle
fibre stimulation. The PierenStim Parese transcutaneous muscle stimulator is
a sophisticated device which is manufactured under stringent quality control
conditions. The following safety precautions have to be observed at all times.

Using the device safely

Please read carefully the operating instructions
before using the device.
»
The device is only to be used with original accessories.

»
Never use the PierenStim Parese if it is damaged or not working properly.
»
The PierenStim Parese should not be operated at the same time as other high
frequency devices (for example mobile telephones) owing to the possible
interaction of the electro-magnetic fields of such devices with the PierenStim
Parese. This can lead to an increased current flow.
»
The simultaneous connection of the patient to a high frequency surgical device
can cause burns under the electrodes.
»
A minimum surface area of the electrodes of 2 cm
»
Use only the enclosed sponge electrodes and do not exceed the total number of
60 applications.
