longer duration (calculated in milliseconds and not in microseconds as in
the case of normal innervated muscle) and a much lower frequency.
Session duration: 20 minutes, in one phase.
Electrodes' positioning: use 2 large electrodes, better if wet and in sponge,
placed at the heads of the muscle to be stimulated.
Intensity: should be adjusted to stimulate the muscle with a short
contraction every 2 seconds.
R02 • Partially denervated (medical program)
Cable type: TYPE 1 (see Figure 1 - Cable type.)
This program is specifically indicated in case of partially denervated
muscles, i.e. with a partial injury of the peripheral nerve. The program aims
to stimulate the part of the innervated healthy muscle.
Session duration: 20 minutes, in one phase.
Electrodes'positioning: photos from 01 to 22 of the Position manual,.
Intensity: intensity should be adjusted in order to produce a good
contraction of the treated muscle.
ATTENTION: In the case of the programs R01 and R02 we recommend
rectangular electrodes (measuring 50x90 mm) for medium-high intensities.
With smaller electrodes, the device could generate an alarm and,
therefore, not perform the treatment correctly.
R03 • Stress incontinence (medical program)
Cable type: TYPE 1 (see Figure 1 - Cable type.)
This program, for which no photographs are provided regarding the
position of the electrodes, requires the use of appropriate internal
stimulation probes, supplied separately together with the relative
instructions. Consult your doctor before using this program and during
the treatment period.
Session duration: 13 minutes.
Intensity: to be adjusted above the perception threshold to produce light
internal stimulation.
R04 • Urgency incontinence (medical program)
Cable type: TYPE 1 (see Figure 1 - Cable type.)
This program, for which no photographs are provided regarding the
position of the electrodes, requires the use of appropriate internal
