Page 16: Pain Management
Pain Management The management of post-traumatic, post-operative or chronic intractable pain associated with many areas of the body can be a difficult task. The Intelect Legend Combo provides ® multiple waveforms and many parameter settings to manage pain. Two waveforms are available for Pain Management therapy: Interferential and Premodulated. Interferential The Interferential waveform consists of two channels, each with a sinusoidal waveform;... - Page 17 When you highlight Beat Frequency and press the button, 5 options are displayed. They are 1-10 Hz, 80-150 Hz (default), ENTER 1-150 Hz, Variable and Fixed. The Variable option allows you to select a Low Beat frequency from 1-200 Hz and a High Beat frequency from 1-200 Hz. To make changes in the Variable frequency, highlight and press the button.

Page 18: Premodulated
Premodulated Premodulated is an amplitude modulated sine wave. This waveform is similar to the beat frequency created by Interferential current. In some cases, Premodulated therapy provides a good alternative for Interferential treatment especially when treating areas of the body where four electrodes can not be utilized. Cycle Time parameter controls the on/off cycle time of the current. -
Page 19: Muscle Contraction
Muscle Contraction Two waveforms are available for muscle contraction therapy; Twin-Peak High Volt and Russian. The appropriate selection of a waveform for relaxing muscle spasms, increasing local circulation, re-educating muscles that have atrophied from disuse or injury, or to maintain or improve joint range of motion can be difficult. The Intelect Legend Combo provides ®... -

Frequency is the number of pulses per second of the waveform. To change the Frequency select and press , then use the arrows to change the frequency, from 1-120 pps. FREQUENCY ENTER DOWN Ramp controls the amount of time required to bring the stimulation up to the selected amplitude. When you select and press , 4 options are displayed. -
Page 21: Ultrasound Indications And Contraindications
Ultrasound Indications and Contraindications Indications Ultrasound for use in applying deep heat can be used for treatment of selected medical conditions such as the relief of pain, muscle spasms and joint contractures. These conditions may be associated with adhesive capsulitis, bursitis with slight calcification, myositis and soft tissue injuries. -
Page 22: Ultrasound
Ultrasound Ultrasound is a form of mechanical energy that consists of high frequency vibrations delivered to the body by means of an ultrasound beam emitted out of an applicator. These high frequency vibrations pass through the tissues of the body and are gradually absorbed and transformed into heat. -
Page 23: Combination Therapy
Combination Therapy In the Combination mode, ultrasound therapy is combined with Interferential, Premodulated or High Volt (default) to generate a therapeutic effect. In this mode of therapy the aluminum face of the ultrasound applicator becomes one half of the electrical circuit. An electrode attached to the Red lead wire marked “2” completes the circuit. The benefits of ultrasound as expressed in the ultrasound section are coupled with electrical stimulation;... -
