    1. SAFETY INFORMATION 1.1 General LG SMART TENS stimulator is a portable electrotherapy device featuring Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapeutic device, which is used for pain relief. The stimulator sends a gentle electrical current to underlying nerves and muscle group via electrodes applied on the skin. The parameters of device are controlled by the buttons.
  • Page 5: Indication For Use

    You may discuss this with your physician or therapist. 1.3 Indication for use LG SMART TENS Stimulator should be used for the Symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain, acute post traumatic pain, acute post surgical pain and arthritis pain.

    present in the treatment area. Stimulation should not be applied over swollen, infected, inflamed areas or skin eruptions (e.g. phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, etc.). Electrodes must not be applied to sites that might cause current/stimulation to flow through the carotid sinus region (anterior neck) or transcerebrally (through the head).
  • Page 7 carotid sinus reflex. Stimulation should not be applied over the anterior neck or mouth. Severe spasm of the laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles may occur and the contractions may be strong enough to close the airway or cause difficulty in breathing. Stimulation should not be applied transthoracically in that the introduction of electrical current into the heart may cause cardiac arrhythmias.
  • Page 8 CAUTIONS: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. For single patient use only. Keep yourself informed of the contraindications. This stimulator not intended for unattended, personal use by patients who have noncompliant, emotionally disturbed, dementia, or low IQ.
  • Page 9 hypersensitivity due to the electrical stimulation or silicone rubber. If rash develops or pain persists, discontinue use and consult a doctor. 14) Electrode placement and stimulation settings should be based on the guidance of prescribing practitioner. 15) Effectiveness is highly dependent upon patient selection by a person qualified in the management of pain afflicted patients.
  • Page 10 presence of explosive atmosphere and flammable mixture. ADVERSE REACTIONS: Skin irritation from the electrode gel and electrode burns are potential adverse reactions. If skin irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult your physician. If the stimulation levels are uncomfortable, reduce the stimulation Intensity to a comfortable level and contact your physician if problems persist.
