Page 5: Introduction To Tens
INTRODUCTION TO TENS What is Pain? Pain is the body’s warning system. Pain is important because it signals an unusual condition in the body and alerts us before additional damage or injury can occur. However, long-lasting, persistent pain, often called chronic pain, once diagnosed serves no apparent purpose. -
Page 6: Contraindications Warnings
CONTRAINDICATIONS - Patients with implanted electronic devices ( for example, a pacemaker ) or metallic implants should not undertake TENS treatment without first consulting a physician. - Any electrode placement that applies current to the carotid sinus (neck) region. - Any electrode placement that causes current to flow transcerebrally. -
Page 7: Precautions/Adverse Reactions
PRECAUTIONS/ADVERSE REACTIONS Isolated cases of skin irritations may occur at the site of electrode placement during long term application. Effectiveness is highly dependent upon patient selection by a person qualified in the management of pain patients. Skin irritation and electrode burns are potential adverse reactions. -
Page 8: About This Device
ABOUT THIS DEVICE Your TENS device is a battery operated device that includes two controllable output channels. This TENS device creates electrical impulses whose amplitude, duration, and modulation can be altered with the controls or switches. The TENS dial controls are very easy to use and the slide cover protects accidental changes in settings. -
Page 9: Attaching The Lead Wires
Mode Functions Burst (B) releases individual bursts twice per second. Pulse width is adjustable and the pulse rate is set at 100Hz per second. Continuous (C) stimulation is delivered continuously at the settings determined by intensity, rate, and width knobs. Modulation (M) pulse width decreases from its setting by 60% and maintains the decreased width for 2 seconds before return- ing to the original width setting, which is maintained for 3.5... -
Page 10: For Skin Care
TIPS FOR SKIN CARE Good skin care is important for comfortable use of your TENS device. - Always clean the electrode site with mild soap and water solution, rinse well and blot dry thoroughly prior to any electrode application. - Any excess hair should be clipped, not shaved, to ensure good electrode contact with the skin. -

- Page 19 a. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered.
