Treatment Procedure
(1) Select the function
(2) Select the desired transducer and plug it into the ultrasonic head connector <12>.
(3) Apply the ultrasound gel on the area of treatment.
(4) Select the therapy time.
(5) Select the treatment mode with the function
(6) Select the treatment frequency.
(7) If necessary, activate the acoustic coupling confirmation.
(8) Turn up the dose with the dose control <8>.
Note
Due to safety reasons increasing the ultrasound dose after the ultrasound
has coupled (marker appears in the upper status bar <2>) is only possible
after prior turning down the dose with dose control <8>.
(9) After treatment, the timer will switch off automatically.
Automatic Coupling Confirmation
The optical coupling confirmation at both transducer and instrument enables a stable and
efficient therapy. If the ultrasonic waves are badly absorbed by the tissue of the patient,
the light at the transducer will start flashing. Now you can choose between counting the
effective therapy time or running the timer independently from the coupling (setup
menu).
The setup menu provides an additional option to choose whether or not it is possible to
increase the dose after the ultrasonic waves have coupled to the patient's tissue (light at
the transducer goes out).
Warning Make sure you constantly keep moving the transducer on the skin of the
patient (dynamic treatment)! Avoid using the transducer at one spot for a
longer time (static treatment); this form of treatment might lead to damages
on the patient's tissue!
7 Simultaneous Therapy
7.1 General Information and Preparations
Simultaneous therapy means the simultaneous treatment with ultrasound and stimulation
current. The ultrasonic transducer is one pole of the stimulation current circuit, a plate
electrode the other one.
It is advisable to use a plate electrode of minimum size EF50 as neutral electrode. The
neutral electrode is plugged into the socket No.1 (anode) of the patient lead (page 6).
Make sure that there is enough space between the plate electrode and the transducer. If
there is too little room, an error might be issued.
